This complete satellite phone package combines the latest USB-C version of the Iridium 9555 with a comprehensive accessory kit, Iridium SIM card and your choice of prepaid airtime.

Stay Connected Beyond Mobile Coverage
The Iridium 9555 connects directly to the Iridium satellite network, delivering reliable satellite communications with truly global coverage.
With an active Iridium SIM card and a clear view of the sky, you can make and receive voice calls and send SMS messages from locations where conventional mobile networks are limited or completely unavailable.
Whether you're travelling through remote terrain, heading offshore, working at an isolated site or preparing for an expedition, the Iridium 9555 satellite phone provides a dependable way to communicate when cellular coverage can't be relied upon.
Iridium 9555 Satellite Phone – Now with USB-C
The latest Iridium 9555 introduces USB-C connectivity while retaining the proven design and straightforward operation that have made the handset a trusted choice for satellite communications around the world.
The addition of USB-C provides a more convenient and modern connection, making the Iridium 9555 easier to incorporate into today's travel, fieldwork and emergency communications equipment.
You still benefit from the compact form factor, rugged construction and simple operation associated with the Iridium 9555, now updated with modern USB-C connectivity.
Everything You Need in One Satellite Phone Kit
A satellite phone handset is only one part of a complete communications setup. You'll also need compatible accessories, an active Iridium SIM card and airtime before you can start making calls over the satellite network.
This Iridium 9555 USB-C package brings those essentials together in one convenient kit.
Your package includes the Iridium 9555 USB-C satellite phone, Iridium 9555 accessories, an Iridium SIM card and your selected prepaid airtime allowance.
It's an ideal choice for first-time satellite phone buyers, experienced travellers and expeditions, as well as businesses and organisations equipping personnel who regularly operate beyond conventional mobile coverage.
Choose Your Iridium Prepaid Airtime
Choose the prepaid Iridium airtime option that best suits how you intend to use your satellite phone.
If you're keeping your Iridium 9555 primarily as an emergency or backup communication device, a smaller prepaid airtime allowance may be sufficient.
For longer expeditions, offshore journeys, remote projects or extended travel, a larger airtime allowance provides additional calling time for the duration of your trip or assignment.
With the SIM card and prepaid airtime supplied alongside your handset, there's no need to arrange your satellite service separately.
Whether the Iridium 9555 is your main method of communication in a remote location or an emergency backup when other networks fail, it provides a dedicated way to make contact when conventional mobile coverage isn't available.
Why Choose the Iridium Satellite Network?
The Iridium satellite network provides global coverage across the planet, including remote land areas, oceans, airways and polar regions.
This worldwide reach makes an Iridium satellite phone particularly useful for travellers, expeditions, maritime users, remote workers and organisations whose activities aren't limited to areas with terrestrial communications infrastructure.
Instead of depending on mobile phone towers, the Iridium 9555 communicates directly with satellites overhead. This allows you to make calls and send messages from remote locations far beyond the reach of traditional cellular networks.
Combined with its portable design, straightforward operation and updated USB-C connectivity, the Iridium 9555 remains a strong choice for reliable global satellite communication.
