Orion, the Real-time Data Network™, is a secure, end-to-end IoT data network which utilises radio to send and receive information, improving on many roadblocks that hinder other network solutions, such as independence from a customer’s own broadband, immunity to WiFi dead-spots or Bluetooth range limitations, no associated GSM data costs, and powerful signal penetration. All Orion data is sent in real time.

The data network consists of Orion gateways and tags, where gateways listen and the tags report on the location and status of almost any assets - every two minutes when static, every 30 seconds when in motion.
