Three-tier connectivity, no configuration required
Canaro can work almost anywhere, staying connected via Wi-Fi, cellular and, in the most remote regions, satellite. If Wi-Fi drops, Canaro stays connected over cellular. If cellular drops, the Pro model falls back to satellite automatically, minimizing interruptions to monitoring. Canaro is among the first remote monitoring platforms to offer this kind of automatic three-tier connectivity failover in a single, plug-and-play package.

Designed for simplicity in deployment and use, Canaro requires no SIM cards, network configuration or technicians. Once the device is connected to power, it is live.

Powering Canaro’s connectivity is Toccata’s network partner, Montreal-based Terrestar Solutions Inc. As Canada’s only Canadian-controlled mobile satellite operator, Terrestar extends connectivity to areas beyond the reach of terrestrial networks. Through Terrestar’s Hybrid IoT solution, Canaro benefits from reliable terrestrial and satellite coverage across Canada, as well as global connectivity enabled by more than 500 terrestrial carrier partners and the Skylo satellite network.

“Terrestar is pleased to partner with Toccata on the upcoming Canaro platform,” said Stéphane Miljours, Director, Business Product – IoT at Terrestar Solutions. “From the start, Canaro represented the type of use case we envisioned for our Hybrid IoT solution. Together, we aim to help extend connectivity to more communities and remote areas across Canada.”
