Data Capability for IsatPhone Pro
Inmarsat announces the availability of a data service on its global handheld satellite phone, IsatPhone Pro.
The new circuit-switched data capability, offering an effective data rate of up to 20kbps, was made available through the recent (March 31) firmware upgrade to the handset. The handset design means the IsatPhone Pro can be simply placed on its side with the antenna deployed for connection to the satellite while a micro USB cable connects it to a laptop. And the Inmarsat-4 satellites on which the service runs are designed specifically to handle data communications.
In addition to the data capability, the recent firmware upgrade for IsatPhone Pro features several service enhancements.
