SATELLITE PHONE

 

Description

 

There are a number of different brands of satellite phone networks, including Thuraya, Iridium, and Inmarsat. Relied upon by numerous civilian and military customers, they are indispensible for communications in remote areas and on the ocean. Some limitations include the requirement for line of sight to a satellite, necessitating an external antenna if the device is to be used in a vehicle or building. Bandwidth for data transfer and internet is very expensive and relatively slow.

 

 

PRIMAL Assessment

 

PRIMAL can utilize relatively high bandwidth satellite connections simply by paying a premium for the data transfer. With deep pockets, satellite phones can effectively connect operatives around the world via video-conference and data-transfer capabilities. They can also be used to track the precise location of an operative, so long as the device is switched on. PRIMAL employs the highest grade encryption software to ensure these links are secure.
