MReX-SATLINK SATELLITE IOT GATEWAY
MReX-SatLink OverviewThe MReX-SatLink is a weatherproof solar powered IoT gateway that shifts data using satellite or cellular modem options.
Wired sensors can be directly connected via analog or digital input connections or through an RS422 serial connection. Compatible with Modbus sensors of most types. Originally developed to utilize the Swarm satellite network, the MReX-Satlink now provides options to use other providers as a connectivity option. This includes cellular and several existing and emerging satellite options such as "direct to cell". Features

Low Operating Current
The internal WTE MReX-460 module receiver operates with extremely low current while the data transceiver can remain completely off for the majority of the time. The satellite transceiver only needs to be briefly powered for message transmissions.
The MReX-SatLink includes a custom designed weather protected solar panel with rechargeable battery - this means installations can be very cost effective and fast to install. Complete installations can be as simple as attaching the MReX-SatLink to a fencepost, and connecting antennas to the unit.

Low Cost Remote Monitoring
Although the MReX-Satlink uses low cost cellular or satellite data plans, running cost can be remarkably low. An integrated UHF transceiver allows communication with remote sensors that all can share the same data link. Data compression individually timestamps each message and allows many samples collected at different times to be cached and transmitted in a single message. A system with 10 wireless remote sensors can cost as little as USD $0.50 per month for each sensor on low usage plans.
MReX-SatLink Applications

Field Proven
WTE SatLink satellite products are currently in use in the most hostile and inaccessible areas. The first system installation for the product is on Pomona Island in New Zealand - connected to a network of monitored rat traps where is has been in use for an extended duration.
Remote rat trapping and monitoring case study details demonstrate the effectiveness of WTE SatLink products together with the MReX-ULP.
See our Rat Trap Monitoring Solution for more details of this installation.
