Iridium Satellite OpenPort – Communications for Maritime Markets
Perfect for Leisure, Fishing and Workboats
The introduction of this new service was delayed for two months, but now Iridium Satellite OpenPort is available for the Maritime market.
The most cost-effective satellite voice and data service available anywhere. Multiple phone lines allow for simultaneous captain and crew use, even during data transmission. And Iridium's global coverage ensures availability whenever you need it, from any point on the planet.
