Description

What is SATELLITE PTT?

SATELLITE PTT (Push-To-Talk) is a two-way radio system that uses the Iridium® satellite network. It can be used as a communication tool in remote, isolated areas where there are no mobile phones or landline network infrastructure. Even if terrestrial network infrastructure is rendered unusable by human or natural disasters, SATELLITE PTT can provide a stable back-up, independent from other networks.
* Subscription contracts are required for using the IC-SAT100M. Depending on the country or region, carrying and/or use of the IC-SAT100/M may be prohibited.

One-to-Many Communications

Unlike satellite phones, IC-SAT100M users can immediately start talking to all the radios in the same talk group, with just a push of the transmit (PTT) button.

Wide Area Global Communications

The Iridium® satellite network covers the entire earth, including both poles, and can provide wide area global communications anywhere on the planet*.

* Depending on the country or region, carrying and/or use of the IC-SAT100M may be prohibited.

Real-Time, Low-Latency Communication

Using 66 Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Iridium® satellites, the IC-SAT100M provides low-latency communication, and broader, more reliable network coverage, compared to Geosynchronous Equatorial Orbit (GEO) satellites.

In-Building Use

You can flexibly install the radio and the antenna (with RF unit) with only a LAN cable (Maximum 100 m, 328 ft). Using PoE (Power over Ethernet) capability, the main unit supplies power to the antenna unit through the LAN cable. Connect your PoE injector or switch to extend the distance between the main unit and the antenna unit. (802.3at compatible)
* User supplied LAN cable is required to replace the supplied 20 m LAN cable.

Installation for Mobile Use

For a vehicle use, optional AH-40 must be used for optimal performance and environmental resilience. It must be placed on the top of the roof (highest point) with least sky blocking objects around. When you use a third-party antenna cover, you can cover the AH-40 making it look more discreet.

Advanced System Example with VE-PG4

The VE-PG4 is a versatile RoIP (Radio over IP network) gateway unit, which seamlessly interconnects satellite PTT radios, PMR radios, LTE radios, WLAN radios, IP phone systems, and external devices. In addition to the IP Network (LAN/WAN), the built-in LTE module* provides virtually nationwide communication coverage.

*Service availability depends on the country. Network coverage provided by a custom SIM card.

Conventional Radios and IP Phones Interconnection

With a VE-PG4 RoIP gateway, the IC-SAT100M can interconnect with an IP phone, IP, LTE, IDAS digital* and analog transceivers.

* Type-D multi-site trunking and conventional systems.

Q & A


Is there an activation fee?

Yes, there is a on time activation fee, per unit.

What about monthly communication fees?

Communication fees are typically charged monthly at a flat rate per unit, either through a 3 month or 12 month service agreement, and there are no additional call charges.

* Communication fees differ, depending on the coverage area and the number of the IC-SAT100/M.
* Depending on the country or area, a flat charge plan may not apply, or the service may not be available.

Is there a service termination fee?

There is a service termination fee, only in the event that service is terminated prior to the expiration of the service agreement. The Early Termination
Fee is charged per unit.

What is a “Talk Group”?

Using SATELLITE PTT, you can communicate with other IC-SAT100/M radios assigned to the same Talk Group. The coverage area of the Talk Group is selectable from five sizes.

Is there a charge based on the coverage area size?

Yes, there is a Monthly Fee per Talk Group based on the coverage area size. The fee is per Talk Group and one Talk Group can have unlimited number of radios. Typically the Small Talk Group is included free of charge with every five (5) active units.

How do I assign a coverage area?

The coverage area can be split into different coverage regions, using circles, squares, and rectangles. For example, you can assign coverage areas to Tokyo, New York and London.

Can I change my Talk Group and/or the region within a coverage area?

Yes, you can flexibly change these settings* on the Iridium® website.

* To change the contents of a contract may require an application in advance.

Can the IC-SAT100/M make phone calls?

No, the IC-SAT100/M is PTT (Push-To-Talk) use only. Using the optional VE-PG4* RoIP gateway, the IC-SAT100/M will be able to communicate with other networks.
