Myriota launches HyperPulse 5G NTN for IoT in remote regions
Myriota has launched HyperPulse, a commercial 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) offering global connectivity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices in areas far beyond traditional mobile coverage. The service draws on Australian engineering and operates in countries including Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and the United States.
Network capability
The HyperPulse network is designed to maintain device and sensor connectivity in remote environments. It enables organisations to collect and act on data from sectors such as agriculture, utilities, logistics, mining, environmental monitoring and oil and gas, in regions with little or no existing infrastructure. Early applications include environmental monitoring, asset tracking and animal tracking.
The service uses L-band satellite capacity sourced from Viasat and Myriota's proprietary 5G NTN architecture. It also features an optimisation layer, which allows for dynamic adjustments of connectivity parameters such as latency and data volume depending on environmental or usage conditions.
Technical standards
Built on 3GPP 5G NTN standards, HyperPulse is interoperable with a growing range of NTN-capable hardware, including Nordic's nRF9151 module, which has been certified for use across different applications and environments. Further device certifications are expected. The network can provide lower latency and greater daily data allowances than Myriota's existing UltraLite service, supporting use cases that require more frequent or richer data transmissions.
Sector applications
HyperPulse is suited to sectors that need data connectivity for critical assets and infrastructure that are often situated in difficult or inaccessible locations. Areas identified include livestock monitoring, virtual fencing, feed optimisation, smart water, air and soil metering, weather stations, and tracking of heavy machinery, mining vehicles, containers and rail cars. Oil and gas operators can also use the network to monitor pipeline infrastructure and field equipment.
Developer support
Myriota is releasing supporting products for its IoT partner ecosystem, beginning with the HyperPulse Developer Kit. This kit is designed for rapid prototyping in the field, featuring a weatherproof enclosure and options for various sensor and interface configurations. The intent is to help partners accelerate solution development on the HyperPulse network.
"With HyperPulse, we're making 5G non-terrestrial connectivity a practical reality for IoT at scale. By delivering higher data allowances, lower latency and standards based coverage, HyperPulse gives organisations the ability to track and monitor assets, gather insights, and make decisions - even in the most remote and challenging environments. With a roadmap of new features coming next year, this is an exciting step forward for IoT connectivity worldwide," said Ben Cade, CEO, Myriota.
Luliia Sergeeva, CEO of Saudi Arabian IoT business Custodia, offered an industry perspective as an Early Access customer. "As an engineering-driven IoT business based in Saudi Arabia, we're integrating HyperPulse into our next-generation animal tracking solutions to deliver reliable, low-power satellite connectivity across the Kingdom's most remote environments. This technology will prove transformative for wildlife conservation teams and livestock owners, enabling scalable, cost-effective monitoring in areas where connectivity was previously impossible," said Sergeeva.
Myriota plans to extend the reach of HyperPulse with coverage growth in Latin America, Europe and South East Asia early in 2026.
