This document describes the Iridium 9602-NAL Short Burst Data (SBD) Transceiver and its accessories.
The NAL Research 9602-NAL is a satellite transceiver that combines an Iridium 9602 transceiver with an extended input voltage range and allows Short Burst Data connectivity to the Iridium satellite network. It can be controlled by data terminal equipment sending standard AT commands over an RS232 serial port, and it does not require a SIM card.
The user guide describes the operational features, configuration settings, and electrical and mechanical interfaces of the 9602-NAL. It also covers the multi-interface connector, Iridium antenna connector, optional GPS pass-through, modes of operation, hardware failure reporting, power consumption, standards compliance, and design specifications.
