The Hughes 9502-2 provides fast and stable IP connectivity based on the BGAN. (Broadband Global Area Network) Its use is ideal for SCADA and unattended sites intended and equipped for M2M (machine-to-machine) applications.
It features incredibly low power consumption (<1 W when idle) which makes it possible to provide end-to-end IP connectivity to off-grid locations and sites. This device enables end-to-end IP connectivity to power-challenged locations relying on solar-battery arrays with limited power budgets.
The Hughes 9502 includes 10 meters of RF cabling, granting the user freedom to position the antenna remotely and away from the transceiver in complex installations while securing the SIM card inside a premise or enclosure to better protect against unauthorized use, theft, and vandalism. Future firmware releases would be uncommon, meanwhile any such modem update will qualify for no charge over-the-air (OTA) upgrades saving customers time and money. All-IP Based Machine-To-Machine (M2M) BGAN Terminal.
A laptop is convenient for pointing the Hughes 9502, however it is not required. Many installations may be in awkward locations, such as on a pole or building side. In these cases, a pair of headphones use the audio port of the 9502 for and audible signal strength tone for pointing. We recommend the Huges 9502 be configured to operate with connected equipment prior to remote installation. So during installation, the only action required is mounting and pointing. Excellent for non-trained personnel, or for installers who don't wish to contend with a laptop.
