Satellite Phone Equipment and Services

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. (August 23, 2010)—With earthquakes and forest fires raging out West, hurricanes looming in the Gulf and on the East Coast, or whenever “breaking news” stories go out of cellular range, the need for a low-cost, reliable satellite phone is greater now than ever especially for mobile organizations. 

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. (August 2010)—With hurricanes looming in the Gulf, news breaking in disaster-ravaged countries such as Haiti, and wars raging in remote theaters such as Afghanistan, the need for truly portable satellite equipment is greater now than ever for news organizations— especially when cellular or Internet networks are not available. As part of its ongoing response to this need, GMPCS, a leading global satellite communications provider, has introduced a new line of Inmarsat-based 3BX™ field kits— from handheld satellite-phones to portable satellite-Internet terminals—designed for backpack-based or vehicle-based satellite news gathering.

The first units were sold to a southeast regional electric utility company, with headquarters in Atlanta, GA.  The IsatPhone Pro is the first new global handheld phone to enter the market in several years.  “Inmarsat has established new pricing levels for both equipment and airtime that lowers the cost of global communications to individuals traveling to remote locations and to corporations that must have reliable communications for their personnel beyond cellular coverage.” Said Jon Klein Vice President of GMPCS.
