Which Myriota Network is Right for You? A Simple Guide to Choosing Between UltraLite and HyperPulse
5 Sep 2025

Choosing the right connectivity is critical for your business or project, especially when operating in remote or hard-to-reach areas. Myriota offers two powerful yet distinctive satellite networks — UltraLite and HyperPulse — each designed to meet specific needs. Understanding their core differences will help you select the ideal connectivity solution.
Myriota UltraLite: The Ultra-Low Power Global Connector
If your application requires extreme energy efficiency, low cost, and secure connectivity for lower frequency messaging, UltraLite is the way to go. It’s built on a constellation of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites that provide global coverage optimised for small, periodic data transmissions. Ideal for applications like environmental monitoring, agriculture, water management, and utilities metering, UltraLite supports devices that need to stretch battery life for 10+ years while sending low-bandwidth data.

Myriota HyperPulse: The 5G NB-NTN Network for High-Demand IoT
For use cases demanding more frequent updates, detailed sensor data, and near-real-time reporting, HyperPulse is the ideal choice. This 5G Narrowband Non-Terrestrial Network (NB-NTN), developed in partnership with Viasat, leverages geostationary satellites and advanced technology to deliver standards-compliant, scalable, and reliable connectivity. It’s the only 3GPP Rel-17 compliant network designed exclusively for the extreme challenges of the IoT. HyperPulse suits tracking for moving and fixed assets, fleet management, sensor command and control, and applications where low latency and high reliability are critical.

How to Decide?
Choose UltraLite if you need a cost-effective, ultra-low power solution for remote, stationary sensors, or if your project requires the highest level of security.
Choose HyperPulse if your use case requires frequent data for fixed or moving assets, and involves more complex IoT workflows with higher power tolerances.
Think about your deployment scale and budget — UltraLite excels in ultra-affordable scalability, while HyperPulse offers enhanced features for more demanding IoT scenarios.
