Quake Q9612 Iridium SBD Modem

Overview

The Q9612 satellite transceiver combines the global coverage of the Iridium Satellite Network with the low latency of the Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD) service. This new generation product, contained within a small footprint package, is designed to optimize two-way data links. The Q9612 module has 9-18V power conditioning, can be installed directly onto a 12V vehicle, and is interfaced with an RS-232 serial port. The modem is programmable through an AT Command Set Interface.Because the Iridium Satellite System incorporates 66 low-earth-orbit satellites, the Q9612 can deliver low-latency communications and true global coverage.   Typical global latency of the Q9612 is less than thirty seconds, making the Q9612 appropriate not only for routine communications but also for utilization in applications where delays in communication are unacceptable, such as those involving safety and emergency situationsThe Q9612 is an ideal solution for information-critical applications in almost every part of the globe.
