Services Available

Overview

The COM9602 Iridium Short Burst Data Modem enables short burst data message transmissions from a remote Campbell Scientific datalogger via the Iridium network and the Internet. The COM9602 provides an RS-232 port for communication, along with power and control terminals. The COM9602 can be connected to the datalogger's RS-232 CS I/O or COM port.

For a complete SBD solution, pair the COM9602 Iridium Short Burst Data Modem with a Data Services Plan.

Campbell Scientific Data Services offers customized solutions to assist with collection, hosting, storage, and processing data with the goals of simplifying the process for the client and providing ongoing support. For Short Burst Data, the available services start with the analysis of the client's expected data volume and identifying the best plan for the application.
