Iridium IoT (Internet of Things) connects industries operating in the most remote and demanding environments. With a resilient low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation and purpose-built hardware, we enable two-way data, location, and control for assets that can’t afford to go dark.
Weather-resilient, pole-to-pole connectivity over land, sea, and air.
Even in areas without terrestrial networks.
From Short Burst Data® (SBD®) and Iridium Messaging Transport® (IMT®) to our standards-based Iridium NTN Direct NB-IoT service, launching in 2026.
Trusted by OEMs, integrators, and leading IoT platforms.
Count on a proven, fully meshed LEO network that delivers dependable connectivity.
Designed for long deployments and remote sensors with minimal power consumption.
From OEM modules built by leading chip companies to dedicated Iridium hardware and turnkey off-the-shelf devices, our ecosystem makes integration fast and scalable.
Iridium IoT powers smarter operations in the world’s most remote and mission-critical industries where reliability isn’t optional.
From embedded modules to turnkey trackers, Iridium offers scalable options for OEMs and enterprises alike.
Bring satellite IoT data directly into your cloud ecosystem.
Iridium CloudConnect is the industry’s first and only satellite-to-cloud service that extends Iridium’s global network into AWS IoT Core, enabling near-real-time data delivery, device management, and analytics—without custom middleware or gateways.
Highlights:
