RICHARDSON, Texas - eTradeWire -- BEC Technologies, a leading developer and manufacturer of 4G LTE and 5G Wireless WAN solutions, today announced the MX-340-IRD Hybrid LTE-M + Iridium SBD® IoT Gateway, designed to maintain critical communications with remote field assets when terrestrial cellular connectivity is unavailable.

Remote infrastructure does not stop operating when cellular service disappears. Alarms still trigger, equipment conditions change, and field assets continue generating critical data. For mission-critical IoT applications, losing the network should not mean losing the information operations teams need most.

The MX-340-IRD combines LTE-M as the primary communications path with Iridium Short Burst Data® (SBD®) satellite connectivity, helping preserve essential communications during cellular outages, coverage gaps, and at remote or isolated locations.

"The data that matters most is the data that gets through," said D'Andre Ladson, VP of Marketing, BEC Technologies. "The MX-340-IRD combines cellular, satellite, and edge intelligence to help organizations maintain critical visibility when terrestrial connectivity is unavailable."

More Than Cellular-to-Satellite Failover

The MX-340-IRD does more than switch between networks. When cellular connectivity is unavailable, application-aware edge logic can identify, prioritize, buffer, and forward selected critical information over Iridium SBD®.

That information can include alarms and exception events, equipment status, telemetry, GNSS location, selected Modbus or DNP3 data, and customer-defined application payloads.

Rather than replicating the entire cellular data path over satellite, the MX-340-IRD lets organizations prioritize the essential operational information.

Preserve Visibility When It Matters Most

For utilities, energy, transportation, industrial infrastructure, and other mission-critical IoT applications, the MX-340-IRD provides a practical way to build communications resilience into remote operations.
