ROVER Iridium Satellite Beacon on the Sea Surface

ROVER Beacon Introduction:

ROVER Iridium Satellite Beacon is an independently powered, self-sustaining communication beacon. ROVER is mainly used on various sea buoys and other floating objects, and is very suitable for use in harsh marine environments. It has a sturdy UV resistant shell and has two independent Iridium/GPS antennas located at the top and bottom of the beacon. Even in harsh sea conditions, ROVER can continuously record and automatically send the position of the buoy in case of overturning.

ROVER's main features:

1. Beacons are only used on the sea surface;

2. Having dual antennas located at the top and bottom of the beacon, respectively,

Even in the event of overturning, position data collection and transmission can still be achieved;

3. UV resistant plastic shell;

4. The beacon uses AA type batteries, which are easy for users to replace;

5. Up to 2 years of deployment time;

6. It is convenient to manage and control beacons through the Xeos Online platform.
