Numerex, a provider of solutions and networks for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications has launched the OrbitOne SX1 solution, a Next-Generation Satellite Tracking and Asset Monitoring Solution which is commercially available through Orbit One Communications (News - Alert).

 

This long life, low cost satellite solution delivers supply chain and logistics tracking for Military, Government and commercial markets. Earlier, such technologies were available only to military and government organizations. The SX1 is a truly portable and easy to configure device and takes less than a minute to activate and operate.

 

The SX1 weighs 369 grams and has 184 x 83 x 25 mm dimensions. Delivering up to seven years of uninterrupted service on a field-replaceable battery, or
operating online power, the SX1 provides mission critical reliability under
the harshest environmental conditions. The highly ruggedized device is certified and manufactured to exceed IP68, NEMA 6P, and MILSTD 810 environmental specifications.

 

Operating on Globalstar's Low Earth Orbit (LEO) simplex satellite data network, the OrbitOne SX1 provides GPS visibility, event monitoring and asset management data on a near global basis.This solution is developed by Orbit One Communications, a satellite solutions business which was acquired by Numerex recently. 

 

For systems integrators the SX1 provides a reliable and open data architecture compatible with virtually any legacy supply chain, logistics or tracking application. The OrbitOne solution is also capable of providing global supply chain logistics visibility, resulting in reduced demurrage, increased security and minimized fleet downtime, Numerex said. 

 

"We are very excited about the launch of OrbitOne SX1, which we believe is a ground-breaking achievement. The solution provides our military, commercial and government clients with true visibility of their mobile assets nearly anywhere in the world - we think of it as Global RFID," Stratton Nicolaides, chairman and CEO of Numerex commented.

 

"For large scale and global deployment OrbitOne offers one of the most cost-effective solutions available and complements our existing cellular tracking and monitoring platforms. The solution also extends our global reach and positions Numerex to offer our
military, commercial, and government customers a broader range of device and
network communication options."
