Marine Equipment - Iridium Satellite Telephones Introduction
Iridium is the only provider of truly global mobile satellite
voice and data solutions. With complete coverage of the Earth’s oceans,
airways and Polar Regions, Iridium delivers essential services to users
who need communications access to and from remote areas where no other
form of communication is available. Through its own gateway in Hawaii,
the U.S. Department of Defence relies on Iridium for global communications
capabilities.
Iridium Satellite Telephones allow you to make voice and data calls from
anywhere in the world. By linking them to a laptop its easy to access
your e-mails, get onto the internet or to use online services of banks.
The call can be cheaper that a mobile phone on ‘roaming’. Specialist programs
and providers are available for e mail when using Iridium.
Mailasail is one company that provides accelerated email up to 90% faster,
blocks out unwanted attachments and has web mail and weather download
features. The mailasail site can be accessed at the foot of this page.
The phones are compact, robust and as easy to use as your mobile. We can
supply new and second hand phones, and provide Airtime connection contracts.
Please note all prices shown on this site do not include VAT at 17.5%
Why not call for a chat - if we can help we will.
