Rogers Satellite Transforming IoT Connectivity for Asset and Fleet Management Technology

First Canadian wireless carrier to offer satellite-to-mobile service for new Geotab asset tracker

TORONTO, Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rogers Communications today announced it is launching satellite-powered asset tracking technology with Geotab, a global leader in connected transportation, video and asset tracking solutions.

“We’re proud to be the first Canadian wireless carrier to offer satellite-to-mobile service for IoT,” said Tom Turner, President, Rogers Business. “Businesses will now be able to seamlessly track critical assets like trailers, containers and equipment across the country, whether they’re connected to our 5G+ network or in areas where traditional cell coverage is not available.”

Powered by Rogers Satellite, GO Anywhere Plus extends visibility of assets where traditional cell coverage is not available, giving Rogers Business customers near real-time location of critical assets wherever they operate.

With Canada’s vast geography and resource-based economy, this new capability helps organizations improve uptime, strengthen logistics, and accelerate delivery of mission critical equipment. Applications include fleet and asset tracking along remote highways and rail corridors, as well as powering automated sensors for sectors like forestry and mining.

“Knowing where equipment is and whether it is ready to work is critical on a job site, especially across Canada’s vast and often remote geography,” said Neil Cawse, CEO, Geotab. “Working with Rogers and their coast-to-coast IoT satellite-to-mobile coverage allows us to deliver an asset tracking solution to Canadian businesses that performs where other cellular networks cannot. This partnership provides our customers with the visibility and confidence they need to manage their most important assets, regardless of where they operate.”

Only 18 per cent of Canada is covered by traditional wireless networks. Using low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites and Rogers national wireless spectrum, Rogers Satellite enables existing IoT devices to switch seamlessly between Rogers wireless network and satellite-to-mobile service, keeping IoT devices connected in some of the most remote regions of the country.

Rogers will introduce satellite-enabled GO Anywhere hardware this spring.
