Myriota unlocks next phase of growth with launch of hybrid 5G satellite and cellular IoT network

Myriota to deliver uninterrupted global connectivity with HyperPulse and AssetHawk now providing tracking and monitoring of water, energy, mining, agricultural, and industrial assets via a single network.

Myriota, a global leader in satellite Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity, today announced the addition of cellular connectivity to its HyperPulse 5G non-terrestrial network (NTN) and AssetHawk asset tracker device, creating a hybrid IoT network that enables seamless asset tracking between cellular coverage and remote, zero-cell environments. The launch marks a significant milestone for Myriota in expanding its market share in a sector forecasted to reach nearly 14 million IoT-NTN connections by 2032.

By combining HyperPulse’s low-power satellite connectivity with support for cellular networks, Myriota delivers a hybrid solution designed – and priced – for industrial IoT at scale. HyperPulse automatically routes each message across cellular or satellite based on availability and configuration, removing the need for users to manage separate satellite and cellular providers, contracts and platforms. A single device on a single connectivity contract now covers the full operational geography of an asset, from urban logistics hubs to the most remote environments on Earth.

Addressing longstanding industry challenges with a practical solution

The addition of cellular lowers the blended cost per message by seamlessly routing to the most cost-effective network, with hybrid data plans starting at US$0.99 per device per month.

“The launch of hybrid connectivity for HyperPulse and AssetHawk further cements Myriota’s position as a global provider of scalable IoT connectivity, enabling organisations to keep assets continuously connected across both terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks, and turn real-world operational data into action.

 

“For decades, vast numbers of remote and distributed operational assets have remained disconnected – not because the technology didn’t exist, but because the economics never worked. HyperPulse changes that equation. For the first time, it’s commercially viable to connect almost any asset, anywhere, for less than a dollar per month, making this one of the most accessible solutions available today. That’s not an incremental improvement. That’s a whole new market,” says Ben Cade, CEO of Myriota.

The launch expands the company’s addressable market while resolving a longstanding industry challenge: making hybrid connectivity simple to deploy, manage, and price.

Connecting remote devices cost-effectively

Satellite IoT has historically served the most remote use cases. Adding cellular changes the economics for a far broader asset class: trailers moving along transport corridors, generators rotating between sites, containers transitioning through ports before moving inland, as well as distributed infrastructure where assets are permanently split between connected and remote locations. These assets spend only part of their working life outside terrestrial coverage – enough to need satellite coverage, but not enough to justify satellite-only economics. HyperPulse now addresses this effectively and efficiently.

Myriota designed, built, and operates the HyperPulse network. Compliant with 3GPP Release 17 standards and compatible with a growing ecosystem of standards-based silicon, HyperPulse delivers hybrid coverage across the US, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand and Saudi Arabia, with more markets due to launch this year.

AssetHawk, Myriota’s ruggedised, battery-powered asset tracker, is the first device purpose-built for deployment on the hybrid HyperPulse network. Designed as an integration-ready device for solution providers, it includes BLE sensor integration, effectively turning a single tracker into a localised sensor hub. Launched in February 2026 in key markets including the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico, providing a low-cost foundation for partners to build and deploy industrial IoT solutions at scale. It has been engineered to offer the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) for a hybrid tracker on the market.

Hybrid connectivity across HyperPulse and AssetHawk will be available later this month.
