Australian IoT firm M2M Connectivity signs partnership agreement with global satellite company Blue Sky Network
The partnership between M2M Connectivity and US-based Blue Sky Network will focus on improving connectivity for agricultural, transport, mining, and utility companies. Blue Sky network is a leader in the development of satellite tracking systems and two-way communication for remote land, air and sea applications, and this solution with M2M will use omnidirectional antennas making it easier to deploy for both fixed and mobile IoT devices. It will support mid-band IP data applications to offer an affordable alternative to users needing IP, but not the throughput speeds of higher-cost offerings.
