Guardian Mobility G6-S aviation terminal obtains Iridium Certus certification

November 22, 2023

Guardian Mobility has now expanded its product line to satisfy ever-changing satellite communications requirements. Continuing with the success of the G6 Certus® 100 terminal, Guardian’s latest variant, the G6-S, is now Iridium certified.

This aviation terminal has the same capabilities and features as the G6 but allows for an external antenna configuration. The product is specifically aimed at the UAV/Drone and fixed-wing high-altitude market as it offers unique Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) advantages using a small external TSO-certified antenna. The transmission speed of 88kbps is four times the speed of any other Certus® 100 competitor and, therefore, offers video and imagery services.

“The Guardian G6-S product fulfills a gap in the market and offers options for installation on a variety of platforms to serve our client’s needs best. We can support applications such as live video, automated flight following, real-time images, health monitoring, and more while significantly lowering operational costs.” — Stephane Momy, COO of Guardian Mobility

“The Iridium Certus® 100 88/88 Kbps mid-band solution brings voice, data, and video to uncrewed and crewed missions at a fraction of the size, weight, power, and cost of any other SATCOM solution,. Guardian Mobility’s Iridium Connected® G6 and G6-S aviation terminals provide that sweet spot for reliable end-to-end connectivity for a variety of unique aviation applications.” — John Peterson, Executive Director of Aviation Line of Business, Iridium

Guardian serves the aviation, military, government, and other market segments with a simple procurement process and straightforward customer service.  Airtime and service packages are customizable to fit individual needs, and an existing product suite featuring FDM, tracking, and communication capabilities is available.
