Ashbury SatCom - SatPhone Benefits

• Satellite Phones have incredible network coverage. Some, such as the Iridium satellite phone, even has truly-global coverage. This means you can be connected even from the most remote regions of the world. Remember to check the network coverage for the satellite phone of your choice.

• You can move from one country to another within the satellite coverage area, all the time staying connected to the same network. This means you do not have any roaming implications, and your satellite phone number and dialing procedure stays the same regardless of the country you are in.

• Because satellite phones are proprietary to the satellite network they have been designed to run on, it is not possible for one type of satellite phone to roam on another satellite network. And there is no need to either. You always connect directly to your own satellite network, and as such never incur any roaming charges.

• Unlike cellular networks, with satellite phones there are generally no roaming charges, incoming call charges, zoning charges, or peak call charges. This also means that satellite phone call charges are in most cases significantly cheaper than cellular roaming.

• Lately some satellite networks - such as Inmarsat, have launched a broadband-data service similar to 3G. Inmarsat is leading the pack with their BGAN (Broadband Global Area Network) service offering, which enables simultaneous landline-quality voice calls and high speed internet (up to 492kbps), via small highly portable satellite terminals.

• Using an Inmarsat BGAN terminal for your broadband data requirements, while travelling abroad, is in most cases cheaper than 3G roaming, and, unlike 3G roaming, Inmarsat BGAN is reliably available all over Africa and all around the globe - except at the poles.

• Nowadays satellite phones have become much smaller than their predecessors of some years ago. They are now much more portable and easier to use. Some even look just like cell phones.

• Because the satellite-phone industry is a small and niche industry, you can expect a personalized customer experience. You even get your own personal account manager.

• Buying a satellite phone from Ashbury SatCom means that you buy into a culture of industry expertise and service excellence, from a business that takes great pride in serving your needs.
