Stellar DS101 Satellite Modem

Overview

The DS101 specifically targets machine-to-machine (M2M) applications that require reliable and low-cost data communications from anywhere on the planet, including those in the most remote locations.


The DS101 is designed to meet the requirements of the 'modem only' applications. The DS101's small footprint, efficient power consumption, globally competitive pricing, world-class design and stable performance make it ideal for automatic meter reading (AMR), transportation tracking, oil and gas monitoring, security management, and many other applications.

The DS101 is ideally suited for integration with terrestrial modems, providing a cost-effective dual-mode solution.
