Discover the connection method used by Vanemar to maintain constant system connectivity: GSM Cellular vs. Satellite.

Updated over 8 months ago

Actually, we prefer GSM connection to satellite connection for a few obvious reasons.
​
The most important of these is power efficiency. Considering that the system must be constantly connected, satellite systems consume about ten times more power compared to GSM connections. Currently, the most efficient option is the GSM connection, as the primary purpose of our system is to provide continuous monitoring with the lowest possible energy consumption.
​
Another reason is that satellite systems always need clear weather to provide an accurate and reliable connection, while the GSM connection is much less affected by weather conditions. Despite these disadvantages, satellite connection infrastructure services are much more costly compared to GSM services.
​
As a result, we prefer GSM connection in order to provide uninterrupted and affordable service to our customers.
