IRIDIUM VOICE DATA
Iridium from SkyNet is the only service that offers truly global satellite voice and data solutions with complete
coverage of the earth (including oceans, airways and polar regions). The Iridium service is ideally suited for
industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil
and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities.
Handheld phones weighing less than one kilo and global coverage—provided by 66 low-earth-orbiting satellites
(LEO)—allow you to make and receive calls virtually anywhere in the world, needing only a clear line of sight
to the sky. The Iridium constellation, which operates as a fully meshed network, is the largest commercial
satellite constellation in the world. Iridium provides a complete telecommunications solution by combining voice,
global paging and SMS and data service.
