Introducing the world’s first two-way radio system using the Iridium satellite network; the ICOM IC-SAT100 Satellite PTT Radio. The SAT100 has global coverage and can be used anywhere in the world to connect any Teams to communicate with all its members. Therefore unlike mobile phones and walkie-talkies, there is no need to use and/or carry a radio base-station or repeater to remote locations where no such radio infrastructure exists and is ideal as a backup communication tool in case local cellular or radio infrastructure is not operational due to any disaster or catastrophic event.

Unlike a Satellite Phone, which connects one-to-one and is charged by the minute, the SAT100 connects one-to-many, uses Push-To-Talk functionality and offers unlimited talk-time at a flat-fee. Therefore one SAT100 can instruct many members of a Team with one simple PTT call. SAT100 Talkgroups can be easily created on-the-fly using drag and drop technology and coverage areas and regions can be simply created, modified and moved using a PC mouse-click. All SAT100 Team communications are secure using AES256 encryption. Its high-capacity battery will provide communications during a full day of up to 14.5 hours. Using optional radio or cellular phone integration, the SAT100 can also communicate with existing walkie-talkies or cellular phones.

Flexible, Durable, Dust-tight, Waterproof

The SAT100 is waterproof, dust tight and has a durable body and will easily cope with any rugged operations area and tough conditions. With the optional car-kit including external antenna, the SAT100 can be easily fitted into any vehicle, providing automatic battery charging from its cradle and can also be used with an optional hands-free PTT headset. The SAT100 is delivered including an A/C adapter for over-night charging from generators at a camp or outdoor project site. For any serious team, the ICOM IC-SAT100 Satellite PTT is the perfect and indispensable communication partner!
