Iridium Satellite GPS Vehicle Tracking

Are you looking for reliable 24/7 communication for your fleets? Geotab now offers Iridium satellite GPS vehicle tracking solutions. The Iridium modem has been integrated with GO4 as a backup means of communication. The GO4 will use the cellular network as its primary means of communication, but in the event that the device can no longer communicate via GSM or CDMA, the GO4 device will send positional updates via the Iridium network. This in turn provides reliable and cost effective solutions to your organization.

Man Down Add-On

The Iridium satellite unit can be wired into an auxiliary port so that when triggered, it sends an "Emergency'" message through the satellite network to MyGeotab™ or Checkmate™. This feature will send a top priority message, regardless of the state of the vehicle, such as whether the ignition is on or off, or whether there is cellular coverage or no coverage. When this feature is triggered, the device will start a beeping sequence that will continue to beep until the message has been received. This lets the driver know that his or her message was successfully delivered to MyGeotab™ or Checkmate™ and that the necessary people have been informed.
