About Iridium Certus®
Iridium Certus terminals provide 3 voice lines and Standard IP internet access speeds up to 352 kbps up / 704 kbps down. Terminals are available for both land vehicles and maritime applications. Certus provides global coverage even in mountainous areas while the vehicle is in motion. Iridium Certus has much lower data packet latency than Inmarsat BGAN or FleetBroadband making it suitable, among other things, for remote control applications that require quick responses.
Hardware Options
The unique, overlapping architecture of the Iridium® Satellite Network provides availability, redundancy, and available from no other satellite network. Iridium Certus terminals are now available for land vehicle, fixed site, land portable, and maritime applications.
The Thales MissionLINK and Thales VesselLINK have 3 phone lines and offer superb sound quality. Each line can be configured as a standard postpaid line, a Captains PIN-protected line, or a Crew line for use with prepaid scratch cards. US Local Access Numbers are available for a small monthly fee with postpaid service.
One of the easiest methods to make or receive calls is to use a smartphone equipped with the Zoiper app. Simply connect to the MissionLINK via WiFi and start making calls. If a hardline phone is desired, the MissionLINK has an RJ14 port that supports two POTS phones (not included). Another hardline option is the Thales SureLINK IP Phone phone with noise cancellation technology and a distress button for initiating emergency calls or sending GPS locations. Up to three (3) Thales SureLINK IP Handsets can be connected via ethernet to the MissionLINK.
