Built on ST Engineering iDirect's scalable platforms, the solution incorporates an IoT optimized waveform on its hub line card, compact integrated terminals and a cloud-based NMS/OSS management framework powered by technology from hiSky, a provider of satellite agile IoT networks.
The national telecommunications company of Argentina, ARSAT, is deploying the IoT solution to tackle a range of in-country challenges across vertical markets, including the ability to implement fleet tracking solutions and environmental monitoring. The solution enables users to view important data on areas of concern such as rainfall and river levels, wildfire threats, deforestation, and water scarcity.
ARSAT was able to seamlessly integrate the IoT solution into their existing ST Engineering iDirect hub infrastructure to deploy a service that will allow them to capture the growing IoT market in Argentina.
