Key Benefits

Enabled by the Iridium Edge™ device, EROAD Satellite Communications offers full visibility of the location, status, and safety of your remote vehicle fleet.

Robust solution

The Iridium Edge™ satellite modem is made for harsh, rugged environments and is easily paired with your Ehubo2 in-cab telematics device and MyEROAD platform to stay connected with your fleet.

Iridium Satellite Network

The Iridium Satellite network creates a web of coverage encompassing 100% of the planet from Low-Earth Orbit, providing low-latency and weather resilient services unlike any other satellite provider.​ This makes the Iridium satellite modem capable of tracking vehicles in out-of-coverage areas and enables duress or rollover alerts in these locations.

Flexible data plans

Change your airtime contracts to match your fleet’s operational requirements. Set daily communication limits with duration between location updates as well as messages on priority events.

Least cost message routing

Means that you are communicating cost effectively and will only use satellite communication when you really need it i.e., when no cellular coverage is available.
