Iridium is a satellite system offering services in voice, fax, data and radio communications.
This system enables professional communications between ships, or between ship and shore. Crew members also use Iridium to remain in contact with family and friends.
Iridium uses a terminal the size of a portable phone and an LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellite network that ensures reception even in polar regions. It is designed for low-traffic areas. In areas with GSM coverage, communications are carried by the regional operator.
Iridium offers different types of communication. Choice will depend on the intended use of the system.
