Explorer 540 Dual BGAN - 3G/M2M Terminal For Satellite Internet

The new EXPLORER 540, Cobham SATCOM's latest addition to its established EXPLORER range of satellite terminals,  introduced as the world's first Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication terminal to operate on both Inmarsat BGAN (Broadband Global Area Network) and 2G/3G/GPRS networks.

As the only M2M terminal to offer dual-mode operation, EXPLORER 540 provides unique installation flexibility and M2M data communication cost-control, as it ensures the most cost-effective communication service can be chosen depending on location of the installation and service quality/availability. Securing continuity of M2M IP data transfer, which often originates in hard to reach, remote locations, dual-mode operation also delivers significant failover capabilities with automatic switching to the secondary service should EXPLORER 540 detect that its primary communication service is unavailable.

Cobham Explorer 540 M2M Functions

For organizations transferring business or safety critical real-time data within their M2M networks, EXPLORER 540's dual mode can provide unmatched service availability. Designed to deliver real-time M2M communication for diverse applications including IP SCADA for data backhaul, asset tracking, real-time surveillance and remote telemetry, EXPLORER 540 brings with it the same operational reliability that has helped to establish EXPLORER as a leading name in the land mobile BGAN and VSAT sectors. It is based on the latest generation EXPLORER technology platform, introduced with the EXPLORER 510 BGAN terminal.

Explorer BGAN 540Supports the Inmarsat M2M AccessPlatform (M2MAP).

  • Data exchange
  • SMS gateway for remote management
  • Firmware Upgrade Process (FUP) server for free OTA SW upgrade
  • Over The Air (OTA) file transfer server forsupport, i.e. log retrieval, configuration update, etc.

 Cobham BGAN 540 System Features

• The optional 2G/3G/GPRS Modem is an integrated part of the design.
• Automatic failover between BGAN and the cellular network ensures continuous connectivity.
• Lightweight and rugged IP66 design ensures durability for outside mounting. No enclosure needed.
• Simple to set up and operate.
• Versatile power options with both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and 10-32VDC input.
• Two cable glands for easy installation of standard power and Ethernet cables into the back housing.
• Remote management of the terminal via SMS including configuration, debugging, and access to the web interface.
• Polemount included in the package.

A true dual mode BGAN M2M terminal with an optional 3G Modem Box as an integrated part of the design.

 The optional EXPLORER 3G Modem replaces the backcover and fits the interface enclosure on the EXPLORER 540. With the modem you can connect to local cellular networks and turn EXPLORER 540 into a dual mode BGAN M2M.

System & Coverage

The Inmarsat network is also a global system and consists of 3 Geosynchronous (Stationary, or Fixed in one position) satellites set on the equator thousands of miles above the earth. Because of the fact that the satellites are GEO, or fixed satellites, which means that they do not move from their set position, whereas LEO satellites are constantly moving. This makes it so that the equipment needs to be pointed directly at the satellite to register on the network.
