Tank monitoring provider expands satellite connectivity

Mopeka integrated Globalstar’s satellite connectivity to extend the capability of Mopeka’s existing suite of options, which include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and global 4G LTE networks. This expansion empowers Mopeka’s clients with a cost-effective and reliable means of connecting to its sensors, regardless of their location anywhere in the world, according to the company. Globalstar owns and operates a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network that provides reliable, ubiquitous connectivity for data transmission and asset tracking. Ideal for low-bandwidth IoT use cases, Globalstar allows companies like Mopeka to extend the connectivity of their monitoring solutions, servicing clients beyond the reach of terrestrial networks. The integration of Globalstar’s satellite technology with Mopeka’s sonar tank monitoring solutions enhances the accessibility, reliability and cost-effectiveness of tank monitoring, according to Mopeka.
