TS2 Satellite Technologies presents new mobile services from the Iridium network.

 

The Iridium network of 66 low-earth orbiting satellites offers coverage across the entire globe, including oceans and both poles. The array is fully meshed with in orbit spares to protect against failure. Iridium claims a 99 percent connection rate of initial calls, and a 98 percent call completion without being dropped for a three minute duration.

 

The Iridium service is ideally suited for industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities.

 

The company supplies both voice and data connections. Voice services are provided via dedicated handsets, or through a variety of installed communications systems onboard ships, aircraft and land-based vehicles. Increasingly incorporated into hundreds of applications, Iridium’s 9601 short burst data (SBD) transceiver provides packet data connections to every corner of the Earth, transferring location information, weather reports, email, or any other data requiring a reliable, global, two-way connection. At a current annual growth rate of 137 percent, Iridium’s most rapidly expanding business segment is the machine-to-machine sector, in which the Iridium constellation provides mobile data links for asset tracking and other monitoring applications.

Soldiers serving in Afghanistan are being offered an Internet service primarily aimed at companies in Asia. The new service offers high-speed Internet access with out the need for phone lines, cable or dial-up modem.

 

TS2 Satellite Technologies company is using satellites to power their Internet service.

 

‘We provide secure and encrypted satellite connections particularly for the military sector, for any military units, literally in any part of the world, on the national firing ground and during all international trainings.’ – said Marcin Frąckiewicz, CEO of TS2. He also added: ‘We have mobile and stationary solutions dedicated to work in difficult conditions’.

 

For soldiers deployed to the war zones this service can allow for communications back home. Many of the soldiers arrive in Afghanistan and Iraq with their own lap top hoping to stay in contact with loved ones. The troops can connect with the service when they are in their barracks.

 

Not everyone though in the service is just using the Internet to stay close with family some are using it to blog and stay in touch with their business associates in the US.

 

Having that connect with family and those at home have upped the morale of the troops.
