Track your assets anywhere on earth! Applied Satellite Engineering has taken low-cost Short Burst Data (SBD) communications to new heights! Integrated GPS combined with your own text messages and reporting conditions gives you the most powerful and efficient tracking solution available. You can even connect your own sensors and add them to your reports!
The SBDpro terminal is an extremely versatile and efficient solution for gathering remote data and transmitting it using the Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD) service. The SBDpro monitors and records user-connected switches and voltage inputs, combines this data with built-in GPS data, temperature readings, UTC time, and custom text messages, and securely transmits to your desktop or server application. Status of practically any type of sensor can be transmitted or used as a transmission trigger. You configure the SBDpro to transmit only the data you want at times you want—minimizing airtime costs. The SBDpro is easily configured via a standard e-mail SBD message or through a direct RS232C connection.
