Should you rent Iridium or BGAN?
Most people rent Iridium satellite phones for a one-time need such as a hunting or vacation trip. A satellite phone is especially relevant if you are traveling to a remote location like Alaska where cellular communication is unavailable. Sometimes, it can be critical to make a phone call because of a health emergency. Usually an Iridium 9555 handset is the best choice. First, it is exceptionally easy to use. Also, rentals as short as 7 days are available with no airtime commitment. Some people need a more sophisticated product that can support email or web browsing. In this case, we recommend the EXPLORER 510 BGAN terminal. Read more here.
