Iridium SBD 9602 Mini-Transceiver


Pasted Graphic

Overview
The Iridium 9602 SBD transceiver, designed to be integrated into a wireless data application with other host system hardware and software, provides a complete solution for a specific application or vertical market. The Iridium 9602 is ideal for M2M solutions, including tracking of maritime vessels, equipment monitoring, and automatic vehicle location.
How It Works
The Iridium 9602 is a single-board transceiver provided as a ‘black box’ transceiver module. All device interfaces are provided by a single multi-pin interface connector, in addition to the antenna connector. Only the core transceiver is provided with the 9602. All other end user Field Application functions such as GPS, microprocessor based logic control, digital and analog inputs, digital and analog outputs power supply and antenna must be provided by the solution developer. The device interface across the user connector consists of a serial-data interface, DC power input, network available output and a power on/off control line. The Iridium 9602 does not incorporate, nor require, a Subscriber Identity Module (also known as a SIM Card) to be inserted into the Transceiver. The Iridium 9602 is intended to be used as a transceiver module fitted within another host system.
