An asynchronous, circuit-switched, 2400bps, bi-directional service that allows for dial-up services. It can be used for larger amounts of data, including files of dozens or hundreds of megabytes.
Iridium Circuit Switched Data (CSD)
Asynchronous, Circuit-Switched, Bi-Directional
An asynchronous, circuit-switched, 2400bps, bi-directional service that allows for dial-up services. It can be used for larger amounts of data, including files of dozens or hundreds of megabytes.
Real Time, Simultaneous Connections
Ideal for applications where a limited number of field devices need to send their data a few times per day, or where the user, from a central location, reaches out to the field applications to retrieve their data.
Global Availability
A mesh of 66 active Low-Earth Orbit Iridium satellites blankets the Earth, providing reliable coverage from pole-to-pole
Two-Way Connectivity
Gain insights and send over-the-air commands for business operations and remote assets anywhere in the world
Real-Time
Iridium’s LEO network enables low-latency connections through shorter transmission paths than GEO networks
Range of Module Options
Small, light-weight, low-power, and low cost options to deliver Iridium CSD through your custom solutions
Simultaneous Connections
Similar to placing a phone call, CSD uses circuit-switching tech via a dial‐up modem & ISDN for low‐bandwidth data transfer, to enable a host application to originate/terminate numerous connections
One of Jeff’s recent expeditions took him and his team on a course through the Arctic, where only Iridium could provide the coverage and connectivity to stay in touch. Using the Iridium Edge® Solar, his followers tracked his team’s expedition in real time from start to finish.
New UAVs equipped with ATMOSPHERE’s Iridium Connected® terminal can react in real-time to weather conditions and capture more data due to Iridium’s Global Line of Sight℠ (GLOS℠) services.
