Qualcomm, a leading technology company, has recently unveiled two modem chips called the 212S and the 9205S, which support satellite data connectivity. These chips can accommodate stand-alone non-terrestrial networks (NTN) and hybrid connections with terrestrial networks while featuring ultra-low power consumption. Both chips are 3GPP Release 17 compliant and can be used for ground-synchronous orbit (GEO/GSO) satellite communications, supporting global positioning.
The 9205S chip has already hit the market, while the 212S chip is expected to be launched sometime this year. The two chips are compatible with the Qualcomm Aware platform, which provides real-time asset tracking and device management services for remote locations.
Skylo, an NTN service provider, has partnered with the Qualcomm Aware platform to enhance the integration of these chips. The 212S chip is perfect for long-distance, fixed-location applications that can extend the device’s usage time. It collects telemetry data from water tanks, fuel tanks, gauges, and other infrastructure equipment and can be used in utility grid monitoring, early fire detection reporting, onshore and offshore mining facilities, and environmental management.
On the other hand, the 9205S chip allows IoT devices to connect to cellular and satellite networks, integrates the global satellite navigation system (GNSS), and provides accurate positioning data. The chip is ideal for goods and asset equipment in transit, such as ocean container tracking, agricultural equipment and livestock tracking, and supply chain management needs such as global fleet and freight tracking.
