16 June 2010
SatCom Global is a launch partner for the distribution of hardware and supply of airtime for the revolutionary new Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro. This is the first purpose-built global handheld device from Inmarsat for what is recognised as the world’s most reliable satellite communications network.
The new phone, which had its global launch at the CommunicAsia 2010 show in Singapore on 15th June, represents a major milestone in the satellite communications market, providing a unique combination of global coverage, longest battery life and most reliable network connectivity together with robustness, clear voice quality and ease of use.
The new IsatPhone Pro takes the satellite phone market to a completely new level. It combines Inmarsat‘s proven technology and reputation with a breakthrough in the company’s product portfolio, by providing a highly robust handset with unrivalled functionality – and at a highly-competitive price point.
“This is great news for our customers, who may be on tight budgets or working in tough, remote environments where they need a reliable satellite connection,” says Sandy Johnson, COO, Satcom Global. “With the new IsatPhone Pro, they now have the ideal solution available from Inmarsat.”
The IsatPhone Pro provides a major opportunity for SatCom Global to extend the range of products and services to meet the needs of its customers in the government, aid agencies, media, oil and gas, mining and construction sectors. Many existing customers already have very positive experience of Inmarsat’s satellite broadband technology and have established trust in its unrivalled voice quality and reliability.
“We are delighted to welcome Satcom Global as launch distribution partner for Inmarsat’s IsatPhone Pro, building upon an already proven and strong relationship between our two companies,” said Chris D’Aguiar, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Inmarsat. “SatCom Global’s strong established presence in key markets across the globe provides the ideal distribution base for us to take full advantage of this exciting market opportunity.”
