SkyWave's IsatData Pro Network 

 

Service is provided to end users by Solution Providers (SPs) who use the SkyWave 
IsatData Pro network to offer particular applications and/or services to their clients. The 
SPs link their application services to the satellite terminals by connecting to the IsatData 
Pro gateway. This acts as the communications hub of the system, routing traffic to and 
from the terminals and the various service providers. 

Configuration and data retrieval from the terminal can be easily accomplished through 
Internet-based application services provided by SPs or by integrating existing customer 
enterprise software to receive information from the Gateway.

The IDP 600 series (Table 1) of SkyWave mobile satellite terminals operate on the 
IsatData Pro network. The terminals are self-contained, environmentally sealed, compact, 
and provide low power consumption. 

Terminals include an omni-directional antenna, satellite modem, GPS, programmable 
microcontroller, and several I/O (input/output) feeds capable of monitoring and 
controlling external sensors and devices.  

The terminal's built-in programmability allows it to work as a stand-alone terminal with 
built-in I/O data collection and processing capabilities. Each model is suitable for both 
mobile and fixed installations. 

Feature-rich software tools make scripting easy, and shorten the script design and testing 
time. SkyWave also provides consulting services to SPs to help program the terminals 
and get customer applications running quickly.
