Introducing RockBLOCK 9604
RockBLOCK 9604 makes it easy to use Short Burst Data (SBD), Cellular LTE-M and GNSS services with your project. Providing highly-reliable, low-latency 2-way messaging from anywhere on Earth.
The PCB assembly hosts an Iridium 9604 transceiver module. Simplifies the power requirements, and provides a serial interface to your project (USB-C and TTL). RF considerations are taken care of by RockBLOCK 9604's integrated patch antenna, or SMA connector for an external Iridium-9604 qualified antenna.
What's in the box?
We ship you a RockBLOCK, and an activation card that you use to register on Cloudloop. The unit is supplied with two U.FL - U.FL cables (not shown) one of which can be moved to connect the Iridium to the external SMA.
📘 Please Note
Accessories and External Antenna are not included.
