"Your Sat Phone may have saved a life, as one of our fishing
boats capsized in high winds and in very cold waters. By the time we were able
to get everyone out of the water and to a shore line, one of our crew was
suffering from hypothermia and the others were wet and cold. The Sat Phone and
a GPS enabled a rescue team to find us and get us to safety." |
BEAM RST100SC Sea CaptainRemote Satellite Terminal
The Sea Captain Remote Satellite Terminal by BEAM provides voice, data, and messaging services through the Iridium network. A standard RJ-11 phone (not included) can be used with this system. Data at 2400 bps is supported using an RS-232 serial port. This port can be effectively used for e-mail with free software from
Outfitter Satellite. An intelligent handset is included to provide a directly connected phone with the Sea Captain terminal. The handset has a built in ring alert, and supports voice and SMS services. An LED display indicates the status of power, satellite signal strength, ongoing call status, and message waiting. Inmarsat FleetBroadband:
The BEAM Sea Captain is an Iridium terminal that only offers 2400 bps
internet access. An alternative marine satellite terminal to consider
if you need high speed internet is the Skipper 150 FleetBroadband terminal.
Unlike Iridium which is valued primarily for its global voice
capability, FleetBroadband marine terminals offer simultaneous voice
and true broadband fast internet. Specifications:Dimensions: 8.8" x 10.6" x 1.2" (22.5 x 27.1 x 4.5 cm)Rack mount console weight: 4.9 lbs (2.25 kg) Operating Temperature: 5°F (-15°C) to 131°F (55°C) Humidity: 93% NonCondensing Power: 11-32 VDC At 12 Features:
