[Via Satellite 02-09-2015] AssetLink Global, a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Everything (IoT) solutions provider, has selected Iridium to connect its AssetPack 3 solar rechargeable monitoring and tracking device. According to Iridium, the partnership will improve AssetLink’s end-to-end asset management for customers in remote areas, even for High Data Rate (HDR) communications.

AssetLink provides customized remote monitoring and tracking devices and services for unpowered assets such as containers, storage tanks and railcars. The company cited access to global, low-latency two-way data satellite communications network as primary reasons for choosing Iridium.
