The iSAT system is developed by SiA (Satellite Intelligence Australia – a division of Solar Injection Australia).
The design of the iSAT system is based on the ORBCOMM satellite network.
|
| The Competitive Advantage | |
 | Established global network and proven technology |  |
ORBCOMM’s current satellite constellation provides a significant cost advantage over any potential new LEO satellite system competitor |  |
ORBCOMM is the sole commercial satellite operator licensed in the VHF spectrum |  |
Market lead in providing M2M data communications services that meet the coverage and cost requirements in the rapidly developing asset management and supply chain markets |  |
Reliable, affordable subscriber communicators |
|
SIA designs, manufactures and markets its own and OEM satellite communication modems & systems for asset tracking, monitoring, and control applications.
Our systems enable data messages to be sent and received from small, low-powered terminals (often solar powered) over satellite and mobile phone networks. Users receive notification of asset location, on-board information and alarms via a user interface. The user determines the exact data to be collected and the frequency at which it is transmitted and received. The same system allows messages to be sent to the remote located modem and asset. This gives the system a Two-Way Monitoring & Control ability.
|
The iSAT System can best be described as a near-real-time, 2-way, end-to-end wireless communication system that facilitates complete M2M (Machine to Machine) interfacing and HMI (Human Machine Interfacing) with all the attributes of a full SCADA system.
