In September 2008 Iridium finally launched their new maritime service: Iridium OpenPort. Iridium OpenPort is the world’s first and only global voice and data service engineered for the maritime market. Iridium OpenPort delivers up to three phone lines for simultaneous use and features always-on data with speeds up to 128 kbps — on an all-IP backbone over a shared connection. The lightweight, low-profile and low maintenance satellite antenna with no moving parts makes the antenna easy to install. In combination with the global coverage (including the Poles) you have a cost efficient communication tool that allows you to stay in touch wherever you sail.

The Iridium OpenPort solution will be offered by Radio Holland. Equipment and airtime pricing will be available soon via your Radio Holland sales representative.
