In the coming years, IoT solutions will increasingly be deployed to address some of the biggest challenges on the planet.

Whether it’s optimizing agricultural production, reducing carbon emissions, ensuring responsible fishing practices or reducing the environmental impact of resource extraction, the growth opportunities for system integrators and IoT solution providers will be endless. OGx will help you address those and many more challenges facing your customers, enabling you to capture that market growth. With OGx, you have the global connectivity, the devices and the support you need to bring new solutions to market quickly and with more flexibility than ever.

Unleash the power of OGx

Faster messages mean faster decisions

With message receipt speeds up to 40x faster than our previous generation IDP network, OGx enables faster mission-critical decision-making. Sending a message in 20 minutes rather than 12 hours vastly improves response time in identifying issues and preventing costly escalations.

More powerful service and larger message sizes

The maximum message size with OGx is 1 MB, 100x larger than our previous generation service. Larger message sizes, faster speeds, low latency and more affordable devices and data open new growth opportunities, offering you the ability to develop solutions for use cases that were impossible on our service before. You can send images, push over-the-air updates and much, much more.

More competitive, flexible data pricing

OGx expands your competitive horizons on both ends of the spectrum, whether your solution requires lower or higher data usage. Our competitively priced flexible data plans reduce overage charges and allow you to use as much data as you need, when you need to, without getting locked into costly high-data plans. Unique to the industry, this gives you the flexibility to create economical solutions for customers who only periodically have high-data needs, such as over-the-air updates or scheduled large data log transfers.

More affordable devices

OGx enables our next generation of lower-cost terminals, modems and modules. OGx devices consume less power, so they’re cheaper to run. And OGx will allow you to develop solutions with smaller hardware and lower cost components, like smaller batteries and solar panels.

New use cases, any industry

OGx will open new use cases in virtually every industry. Your IoT solutions will help your customers increase industrial output and productivity, reduce input costs and downtime, improve worker safety, expand the lifespan of expensive equipment and mitigate environmental impacts.

Here are just a few examples, along with the expected annual compound growth rate for IoT solutions in each industry:

Innovative affordability: new OGx-native devices

The new OGx devices are power-efficient, quick and easy to install and rugged. They’re solar powered to reduce operating costs and eliminate the need for a wired power source or battery changes in the field.

SC 1000

A low-cost device ideal for transportation asset and service-hour tracking to improve operational efficiency. It detects motion and shock for use cases with sensitive cargo or materials. Bluetooth door and temperature sensor support adds flexibility to solution development.

ST 8100

A satellite-cellular dual mode terminal with Bluetooth functionality. Dual mode enables your solutions to use the best connectivity for the task. It’s ideal for monitoring vehicles, boats or fixed assets. And it’s fully programmable so you can customize your solutions.

Superior service, existing devices

You can also use OGx with our other ST family devices with a free upgrade. You get all the benefits of OGx, including lower power consumption, without the cost of new hardware. OGx is compatible with the ST 2100, ST 6000, ST 6100 and ST 9100, so you have the flexibility to select the right device for the job.
