Collection: IP Connectivity

Browse satellite IoT hardware for remote systems that need IP connectivity beyond terrestrial networks.

 

This collection currently focuses on Iridium Certus 100 devices, including RockREMOTE terminals and OEM modules. These devices support both satellite IP and Iridium Messaging Transport, so your application can use TCP/IP when it needs a session-based connection, or switch to message-based data to help manage airtime cost, power draw, and data volume.

 

Choose this route when your application needs Ethernet-connected equipment, remote access, gateway backhaul, hosted edge applications, BVLOS command and control, or more frequent data sessions than message-only devices are designed to support.

 

If you only need to send compact telemetry, alerts, position reports, commands, logs, or occasional data batches, low data messaging or larger message payload devices may still be the simpler and more cost effective route.

  • RockREMOTE Rugged

    IP67 satellite and LTE terminal for remote IoT systems that need Iridium Certus 100, IP connectivity, IMT messaging, and automatic failover, with Ethernet, serial, GPIO, and hosted Linux apps.

  • RockREMOTE Mini OEM

    Board-level Iridium Certus 100 module providing satellite IP and IMT message-based data transport for remote IoT applications. Built for direct integration into unmanned systems, autonomous equipment, and compact industrial devices.

  • RockREMOTE Mini

    Add satellite IP and IMT messaging to remote equipment without building your own enclosure. RockREMOTE Mini gives you Certus 100, Ethernet, serial, GPIO, and low-power operation in a compact IP66 terminal.

  • RockREMOTE

    Dual-mode Iridium Certus 100 and LTE terminal for industrial IoT systems that need secure IP connectivity, IMT messaging, and remote telemetry beyond fixed networks.

Frequently Asked questions

Yes, depending on the model, duty cycle, and application design.

RockREMOTE Mini and Mini OEM are the better starting points for low power deployments. RockREMOTE Rugged and the DIN-rail RockREMOTE are usually better suited to systems with a larger power budget or more persistent connectivity needs.

RockREMOTE hardware and airtime are quoted based on the device, deployment region, expected data use, and service requirements.

These products aren't usually handled through simple online checkout because the right hardware and airtime plan depend on the application. A short pre-sales check with one of our engineering team helps confirm fit before you commit.

Yes, but only with the right workflow.

Standard video streaming isn't a good fit for Iridium Certus 100 bandwidth. Ground Control supports optimized video applications using Videosoft on RockREMOTE Rugged, where compression, routing, and expectations are designed around the available link.

If video is part of your project, speak to us before choosing hardware so we can confirm whether the resolution, frame rate, event frequency, power budget, and deployment environment are realistic.

Yes. RockREMOTE devices can connect Ethernet equipment over satellite IP, including controllers, gateways, sensors, cameras, industrial devices, and host computers.

The right setup depends on the device, network configuration, expected data volumes, power budget, and whether you need satellite only connectivity or satellite with cellular failover.

RockREMOTE devices use Iridium Certus 100, with data rates up to 22 Kbps upload and 88 Kbps download.

That's suitable for telemetry, command and control, remote diagnostics, small file transfer, gateway backhaul, and optimized applications. It's not intended for general internet access, high bandwidth browsing, or uncompressed media streaming.

Choose satellite IP when your application needs TCP/IP, Ethernet-connected equipment, remote access, gateway backhaul, hosted edge applications, or regular data sessions from a remote site.

If you only need to send defined payloads such as telemetry packets, alerts, position reports, commands, logs, or configuration files, SBD or IMT hardware may be simpler and more cost effective.
