SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 6, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Band24, a leader in infrastructure-free asset management and telemetry, has unveiled Terra, the world's first device designed to keep assets connected, even when cell coverage drops or in crowded city blocks. This innovative solution addresses a significant gap in the $30 billion global asset visibility market, ensuring that no asset goes dark.
Terra combines three low-power networks, terrestrial Bluetooth®, LTE-M cellular, and direct-to-satellite connectivity, into a single, palm-sized device. This unique configuration allows businesses to maintain visibility across remote areas, dense urban environments, and everything in between.
The device is part of Band24's Explorer Program, which is now open to first movers. Businesses can apply to receive early access to Terra hardware starting this fall, with applications closing on November 13th. Selected participants will begin receiving devices in December, with the goal of general availability in early 2027.
Terra's robust features include an onboard accelerometer, temperature and humidity sensors, and tamper detection, all of which provide comprehensive reporting on asset status. The device is designed to be inconspicuous and impervious, with a rugged, sealed enclosure that shrugs off dust and water, and withstands drops. It also offers multi-year battery life, making it ideal for long-term use without frequent maintenance.
In addition to location tracking, Terra's satellite connectivity ensures that businesses can request location updates at any moment and receive a response in about a minute. This on-demand feature breaks the constraint of fixed-interval reporting, providing businesses with the responsiveness they need without compromising long-term battery life.
Band24's self-serve Ranger dashboard and Events API already power real deployments, streaming near real-time asset data for businesses of all sizes. Terra integrates seamlessly with these tools, providing a straightforward on-ramp to asset visibility without the need for new systems or infrastructure projects.
The Explorer Program is designed to gather direct feedback from businesses before general availability. Interested companies can apply at www.band24.com/platform/terra.
