Iridium Coverage
With a unique satellite network, only Iridium truly spans the globe.
The unique structure of Iridium’s Low-Earth Orbit allows satellites to converge at the poles, ensuring coverage in the remote high-latitude regions where no other satellite provider has coverage.
Also, Iridium satellites communicate with each other as they fly through space. These cross-links provide network optimization and redundancy, ensuring that data can be rerouted and transmitted with the greatest possible reliability no matter what happens on earth or space, making it ideal not only for remote locations, but for mission-critical applications and emergency response.
Note: Although the iridium Network provides truly global service, use of the service may be prohibited or restricted in certain countries. iridium complies with US. embargo restrictions and as such is prohibited from providing products and service to the following countries: Taliban controlled Afghanistan, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Sudan. Certain other countries may have laws which prohibit or restrict the use of Satellite Telecommunication services in those countries. The use of Satellite Telecommunications sen/ices is specifically prohibited in India without a permit. The use of Satellite Telecommunications devices or services may be prohibited, restricted or unlicensed in other countries. Since this is beyond Pulsar's control and regulations may change without notice, Pulsar recommends checking with the local consulate for the country you will be travelling to if you are unsure.
