Products: The patented SatMAX® system is an advanced communications system available in both fixed and portable unit solutions. The SatMAX system enables Iridium Handset customers to make multiple concurrent and fully wireless, satellite voice calls and allows data connectivity from the safety of any indoor location. Historically satellite phones were only utilized in outdoor environments; customers now have the ability to access Iridium’s dependable and uninterrupted global network from virtually any indoor location in the world. Click here for SatMAXBrochure and Data Sheet. · How SatMAX WorksTypically, satellite-based phone technology requries line-of-sight to a satellite - that means users have to go outside to use their satellite phones. The SatMAX System extends that functionality by offering the unique ability to utilize the same satellite technology indoors. The SatMAX System creates a satellite communications "hotspot" that enables fully wireless coverage for multiple concurrent users in any non-line-of-sight environment. With the SatMAX System, users of the Iridium satellite network can now use their existing satellite phones or data terminals to make multiple concurrent calls within SatMAX-enabled "hotspot" areas from anywhere on Earth. The technology enables routine, mission critical and backup communications that can improve safety and security, emergency preparedness and response, user productivity, mobility, problem solving and mission support.

The two I-4 satellites cover 85% of the world's land mass. Based on IP technology, BGAN delivers data rates of up to 492 Kbps. The service is accessed via a small, lightweight satellite terminal - about the size of a laptop - which is easy to carry, quick to set up and simple to use. You have SMS, Voicemail and ISDN capabilities BGAN enables users to remotely access corporate networks using a secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) connection, to send emails, transfer files and access the internet, whilst making a telephone call at the same time. · BGAN Global Coverage· NERA World Pro 1000/1010Half the size of a laptop and weighing less than 1kg, the Nera WorldPro 1000 meets the toughest demands for portability. Built for persistent travel and bumpy rides, the terminal is incredibly durable and works just as well in a dusty desert as in a humid rain forest. The Nera WorldPro 1000 offers high speed data and voice simultaneously through one terminal. Over a standard IP connection, it connects at up to 384kbps in the receive direction, and up to 240kbps when sending. Streaming data is available at 32kbps and 64kbps for both send and receive. The terminal connects to a laptop computer via a USB port or over a Bluetooth wireless connection. The unique feature of the Nera WorldPro 1000 is its separate antenna, attached by cable, which allows the user to position the antenna on a window sill while working indoors. Voice is via a custom nera handsetor via a Bluetooth handset. Nera WorldPro 1010 Please take note that the Nera WorldPro 1010 BGAN is now available.
