Iridium Communications and SKYWAVE are joining forces to integrate Iridium's Short Burst Data (SBD) services and Iridium's LEO coverage into SKYWAVE's managed networking layer, terminals, and application enablement environment. This partnership aims to provide comprehensive, reliable satellite-based connectivity options for OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) operating in industries such as construction, agriculture, oil and gas, transportation, and maritime. The partnership is focused on addressing the challenge faced by OEMs when working with complex machines in remote environments, where terrestrial networks often become inadequate. The integration is a crucial step toward providing global connectivity for remote asset management.
