No Towers? No Problem: Satellite Connectivity for IoT

No technology has changed the wireless IoT conversation as quickly as the rise of satellite (NTN) connectivity. What was once a highly specialized option is becoming a practical way to connect products far beyond the reach of traditional cellular networks.

But "satellite" isn't one thing. Different networks, standards, and architectures come with very different engineering tradeoffs.

In this webinar, we'll start with a practical 101-level introduction to satellite and NTN connectivity: how it works, where it fits alongside terrestrial cellular, and what product developers should consider when evaluating it for a connected device.

We'll then get hands-on with the satellite options available from Blues, including Notecard for Skylo, Starnote for Skylo, and Starnote for Iridium. Along the way, we'll compare Skylo and Iridium and explore how their approaches differ across coverage, power consumption, data constraints, hardware requirements, and application fit.

Whether you're actively building a satellite-connected product or just wondering what NTN even means, you'll leave knowing where satellite fits, which tradeoffs matter, and how to start building with it.

This session will run less than an hour, and we'll send you the recording afterward, but attending live is always better!
