Globalstar’s RM200M two-way communication module changes the game for satellite IoT. The RM200M allows businesses to move away from one-way transmissions to real-time interactive communication. This lightweight, turnkey module significantly reduces development time, complexity, and costs. The module has seamless integration, edge computing capabilities, and an easy implementation process with tools to launch new solutions. This enables customers to develop revenue opportunities, enhance operational efficiency, and improve business processes. Many businesses struggle to bring their IoT solutions to the market and, by eliminating the limitations of traditional one-way tracking and telemetry, businesses are reducing their development time. The RM200M empowers enterprises to move from passive monitoring to real-time action, unlocking the potential for new IoT applications.
One example of an enterprise that benefits from using the RM200M is Lasso Technologies, LLC (Lasso), a leader in oil and gas tank monitoring solutions. Lasso has leveraged the module to quickly bring new products to market. As a beta customer, Lasso has experienced first-hand the simplicity and efficiency of the RM200M, including the use of a low-code application Realm Enablement Suite platform. The low code application aids in interfacing into existing back-end systems, which reduces development time between concept and deployment.
“This module is simple, straightforward, and easy to work with; we had it up and running right away,” said Peter McCormick, Lasso CEO. “This has been a game-changer, cutting our development time so significantly that we could customize the firmware for our specific application within the same week of receiving the beta unit. That kind of speed is almost unheard of in this industry. The capabilities are unmatched by any technology we have seen.”
Another example of the RM200M’s benefits is TGI Connect’s (“TGI”) development of new business opportunities. TGI Connect is a leading transportation technology provider specializing in trailer utilization, dwell time, and maintenance, and is using Globalstar’s RM200M module to create new services. Traditionally focused on trailers, TGI is now leveraging two-way connectivity to expand into new markets, including the trailer temperature monitoring market and the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) need for off-grid satellite connectivity for tractor compliance companies. This opens new revenue streams and enhanced service offerings for the transportation market.
“The RM200M gives us a simple yet powerful way to expand into new markets with minimal development time,” said Bill Wright, TGI CEO. “Two-way connectivity allows us to bring temperature monitoring online quickly and provide seamless two-way satellite connectivity to ELD compliance companies for tractors operating off-grid. The ease of use and rapid integration mean we can introduce solutions to market faster than ever, adding significant value to both our customers and our business.”
The RM200M is part of the AI revolution. With built-in edge compute capabilities, the module allows devices to process locally, reducing latency. This is particularly beneficial for off-grid applications, where connectivity can be challenging and intermittent. With low-latency, high-availability performance and a dedicated licensed spectrum, Globalstar provides secure, interference-free connectivity for mission-critical applications across industries.
