Iridium

Eighty six percent of the world's landmass and all of its oceans are areas of limited or no landline coverage.

If you also live, work or travel in areas outside cellular phone coverage, let us introduce you to Iridium.

Iridium is currently the only truly global satellite voice and data solution, with complete coverage of the earth* (including oceans, airways and Polar Regions).

Business, adventure or pleasure, ownership of an Iridium phone provides the ultimate communications device, something that can keep you in touch wherever your travels take you. Iridium delivers essential communications services to and from remote areas where no other form of communication is available.

Iridium makes this possible through its constellation of 66 low-earth orbiting (LEO), cross-linked satellites and 12 in-orbit spares, operating at an orbit height of 485 miles.

Buying and owning an Iridium phone is simple, it looks, works and behaves just like an ordinary GSM phone, except it has a slightly bigger aerial, its more robustly built and it works everywhere on the planet*.

There are a wide range of high quality accessories available to assist in integrating Iridium phones into cars, planes, boats and offices.

Tariam sells and supports the full range of Iridium products, and the phone can be demonstrated at our Operations Centre if required.
