Satellite + ISMModule

A site gateway that collects data from your LoRa devices and sends it over Iridium Messaging Transport (IMT), where there's no cellular coverage.

  • Two-way Iridium IMT messages up to 100 KB
  • Global Iridium coverage, pole to pole
  • High-power LoRa on license-free ISM spectrum
  • Built-in location from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou

Jooni Satellite + ISM module

Satellite + ISM

Easy to integrate, quick to deploy, and ready to scale

Your app
Site gateway
Collects readings from your devices over high-power LoRa and sends them on by satellite, so one module connects a whole site.
Global coverage
Iridium reaches the entire globe, oceans and poles included, far beyond cellular coverage.
Two-way messaging
Iridium IMT carries messages up to 100 KB both ways, so settings and commands reach the site too.
Precise location
GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou together give 1.5 m accuracy and a fix in as little as 1 second.
Edge memory
A time-series database on the module holds every reading through outages and power loss until it's back online.
Built to scale
Jooni Cloud is ready at power-up: fleet management, over-the-air updates and routing to any endpoint.

Satellite + ISM

Inside the module

Interfaces

Serial API. Your device talks to the module through a simple serial API.
Command line. Set up and test the module over USB while you develop.
GPIO. Spare pins for your own signals and controls.
Reset + Enable. Hardware pins let your device reset or enable the module.

Intelligence

Jooni firmware

One API across the Jooni module family

Compression. Readings are compressed before they're sent, saving airtime and power.
Store and forward. Readings wait on the module during outages, then send.
Network routing. Collects readings from nearby LoRa devices and sends them anywhere over satellite.
Efficiency. Deep sleep between transmissions means battery-powered devices run longer.
Over-the-air updates. New firmware arrives over the air, with no site visit.
Cloud-synced settings. Change a setting in Jooni Cloud and the module picks it up.
Onboard storage. Data stays on the module, even through power loss.

Wireless communication

LoRa. LoRa devices on site report to it in a Jooni star network.
Satellite. Two-way Iridium messaging carries readings out and commands back, from anywhere on Earth.
GNSS location. GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou give the site its own position.
Antenna ports. One antenna for LoRa, and one shared by satellite and GNSS.

Cloud

Jooni Cloud

Included with every module

Fleet management. See every device's status in one place.
Remote configuration. Control any device and roll out updates from anywhere.
Data to your apps. Readings flow to your own systems through the APIs.

Frequently asked questions

  • Nearby devices report to it over LoRa in a Jooni star network. The module relays their readings to Jooni Cloud over Iridium, so an entire site can report without cellular coverage.

  • The module uses Iridium Messaging Transport (IMT), which carries two-way messages of up to 100 KB.

  • Yes. Iridium IMT is two-way, so settings and commands can reach the site as well as leave it.

  • The module supports GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, with accuracy of 1.5 m CEP and a time to first fix of 24 seconds cold and 1 second hot.

  • For satellite and GNSS, yes. The satellite and GNSS antenna needs an unobstructed view of the sky.
