Iridium Edge® Solar Satellite Asset Tracker

Track valuable assets anywhere on Earth, without relying on cellular coverage or an external power source.

The Iridium Edge® Solar is a rugged, solar-powered satellite asset tracker designed for long-term monitoring of equipment, vehicles, machinery, and other high-value assets operating in remote locations.

Combining global Iridium satellite connectivity, GPS positioning, solar power, two-way communications, and Bluetooth sensor integration, the Edge Solar provides organizations with a dependable way to maintain visibility of assets far beyond the reach of cellular networks.

Designed for long-term deployment with minimal maintenance, the Edge Solar can operate in the field for up to 10 years, harvesting energy from the sun to recharge its internal battery without requiring connection to an external power source.

For transportation, agriculture, oil and gas, mining, construction, utilities, and remote equipment management, it provides a powerful solution for keeping valuable assets visible and connected wherever operations take them.

Global Satellite Asset Tracking

The Iridium Edge Solar communicates using the Iridium global satellite network, providing reliable connectivity across the planet, including remote regions where terrestrial communications infrastructure may be limited or completely unavailable.

GPS positioning and satellite communications work together to transmit location information from the field, helping businesses maintain visibility of vehicles, equipment, and other mobile or stationary assets across large and geographically isolated operating areas.

Whether equipment is crossing a remote worksite, travelling between locations, or sitting hundreds of miles from the nearest cellular tower, the Edge Solar helps keep it connected.

Solar Powered for Long-Term Deployment

Remote tracking becomes much less useful if someone has to regularly visit the asset just to replace or recharge its battery.

The Edge Solar is designed to solve that problem. Its integrated solar charging system harvests energy from sunlight to recharge the internal battery, allowing the tracker to remain deployed for up to 10 years without an external power source under appropriate operating conditions.

That makes it particularly well suited to long-term asset monitoring applications where regular maintenance visits would be difficult, expensive, or impractical.

Intelligent Position & Motion Reporting

The Edge Solar provides more than a simple GPS position. Flexible reporting options include scheduled and interval reporting as well as start, stop, and in-motion reporting, allowing tracking behavior to be configured around the way an asset is actually used.

Organizations can use these reporting capabilities to gain greater visibility into when equipment moves, when it stops, and where it has travelled — valuable information for fleet management, remote operations, asset utilization, and security applications.

Two-Way Satellite Communication

Two-way connectivity means communication doesn't have to stop once the tracker has been deployed. The Edge Solar supports over-the-air configuration, allowing settings and operational parameters to be modified remotely rather than requiring physical access to the device.

For organizations managing equipment spread across large geographic areas, that capability can significantly simplify ongoing asset management.

Connect Wireless Sensors with Bluetooth

Built-in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) expands the Edge Solar beyond GPS tracking. Compatible wireless sensors can be integrated with the device to collect additional information from an asset or its surrounding environment and transmit that data through the satellite connection.

With no external connectors required for Bluetooth sensor integration, businesses can build more sophisticated remote monitoring solutions while keeping deployment straightforward.

Built for Harsh Environments

Remote assets don't always operate in friendly conditions. The Iridium Edge Solar features an IP68-rated enclosure and has been designed and tested against demanding environmental and vibration standards, including MIL-STD-810G.

It operates across temperatures from -40°F to +185°F (-40°C to +85°C), making it suitable for deployment across everything from freezing remote environments to exposed industrial sites.

For equipment expected to spend years outside, that durability matters.

Remote Visibility Without the Cellular Limit

The Iridium Edge Solar brings together the technologies required for serious remote asset management: global satellite connectivity, GPS tracking, solar power, configurable reporting, two-way communications, and wireless sensor integration.

For businesses operating equipment in places cellular IoT can't reliably reach, it provides a scalable way to extend asset visibility beyond the network — and keep it there for years.

Iridium Edge Solar devices must be activated on a service plan with the original hardware provider. An activation fee is added to the hardward device when you add to basket.
