Since launch in 2002, Iridium’s unique constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites has delivered high-quality voice and data services. The complete constellation upgrade in early 2019 enabled the launch of Iridium Certus, an award-winning advanced multi-service platform with speed capabilities ranging from 22 to 1408 Kbps. Offering the highest L-Band data throughput, Iridium Certus provides the flexibility to scale device speed, size, and power requirements, both up and down, based on the needs of end-users.
