Beam Communications Holdings Ltd (ASX: BCC) is pleased to announce that it has received another
purchase order from Beijing Marine Communications & Navigation
Company (MCN). <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6rnjNPVV6D6YnKkeiwbtzjOaoQZdPfgDDhQ_-KgFxp1YFh0fAorx6r2Tv4BM_QU7oTzCEivbpWKRcxNa4vNqUVZeLS2tFuIh9Vk9ljuNKZsPV_SRCMvfQUPVG3hGJohyphenhyphenZN4wYyCCbnf4-/s1600/Inmarsat_Oceana_800_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1000" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6rnjNPVV6D6YnKkeiwbtzjOaoQZdPfgDDhQ_-KgFxp1YFh0fAorx6r2Tv4BM_QU7oTzCEivbpWKRcxNa4vNqUVZeLS2tFuIh9Vk9ljuNKZsPV_SRCMvfQUPVG3hGJohyphenhyphenZN4wYyCCbnf4-/s320/Inmarsat_Oceana_800_1.png" width="320" /></a></div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The order is for the Beam designed and developed Oceana 800 satellite terminal, which will be
deployed on fishing vessels in China. The Oceana 800 supports the Inmarsat GSPS service, essentially allowing for almost-instant communication from anywhere in the world to anywhere in the world, except polar caps- this is the first
approved device of its kind in the world. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For MCN, it means Chinese fishing vessels will have a degree of safety like never before. With the ability to reliably stay in touch with the mainland, safety and relief crews can be notified of impending danger and complications on a journey regardless of where the ship is sailing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
MCN is a leading operator of satellite communication services in China and has been a Beam Reseller
since 2012. The company is the only organisation authorised to supply Inmarsat services on the
Chinese mainland.
The long-standing strategic partnership between the companies has led to the sale of several
thousand Beam Oceana products into China.</div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Beam Communications Holdings Limited (ASX: BCC) is pleased to announce the pre-sales launch of
the affordable and highly capable global messaging device, ZOLEO, on 18 December 2019, with the
unit to ship to customers from mid-January 2020. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The compact, wearable and rugged satellite device will be available from the SatPhoneShop.com
website, wholly-owned by Beam, and multiple major online platforms, such as eBay and
Amazon.com, shortly thereafter. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ZOLEO will also be sold through select leading brick and mortar retailers, suiting users who prefer to
inspect the product before purchase. Details of those vendors will be provided shortly.
ZOLEO will carry a MSRP of A$345 and will give global satellite messaging and SOS capabilities to
mobile phones (Android and Apple) via low-cost monthly plans starting from A$32, up to an
unlimited usage plan for A$80. All plans include an Australian dedicated mobile number that allows users to send and receive SMS
to the same number for the life of their service. All prices are inclusive of GST</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The development of ZOLEO was based on thorough market research of target users, with 96% of
surveyed respondents rating messaging communications and SOS alert features as the biggest
reasons to purchase such a device.
In addition to ensuring global SMS functionality, users can also communicate through the free
ZOLEO messenger and email app, no matter where they are on the planet, as long as there is clear
sight of the sky. There is also a dedicated SOS button for emergencies and a separate check-in “I am
OK” button. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The affordable solution is aimed at anyone who travels to or lives in remote areas of the globe, or
anyone who moves in and out of mobile coverage for work or play. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As more than 70% of the earth’s surface is without mobile coverage, and 84% of Australia is not
serviced by terrestrial networks, this presents a number of large market opportunities for ZOLEO. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This includes domestic and international adventure tourists (land or sea), rural residents, remote
workers, caravanners, boaters, fishermen, 4WD enthusiasts, mariners and lone workers. The
product will also be an essential tool for executive travelers who requires constant contact with
their employers and clients.
Further, ZOLEO is perfect for those going on cruises who want to remain connected with friends and
family, or as a gift to teenagers embarking on a backpacking adventure.</span><br />

more than 20 years tells me that ZOLEO will be a big success,” said the chief executive of Roadpost,
Morris Shaun. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“We have already received pre-orders from several satellite communications dealers and are close to
signing up a large North American outdoor equipment retailer.” </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Managing Director of Beam, Michael Capocchi said:
“It’s taken us less than two years to design and launch an innovative product like ZOLEO, and that’s a
testament to the expertise we’ve developed over almost 20 years in designing communication
equipment for the world’s largest satellite operators.
“The appeal of ZOLEO is larger than what we are initially targeting. The next step for us will be to
develop an end-to-end enterprise solution that will appeal to industries like mining and utilities.” </span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;">The
terminal will enable users to access satellite internet at speeds up to 384kbps,
as well as LTE speeds in the Megabits per second when used in Cellular LTE mode,
which is auto-selected by the terminal when that service is available. “This is
an exciting new product, the first Hotspot to offer the embedded dual mode
functionality, and it’s a demonstration of Beam’s continuous focus on
innovation.” said Michael Capocchi, President of Beam. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;">Beam
also developed a dedicated Thuraya WE App, for both iOS and Android devices
that will enable simple and easy access to worldwide voice calls and SMS services,
along with the use of all applications on a smart phone, tablet or desktop.
This includes full support of services such as i-message®, Skype®, WhatsApp®,
Viber®, YouTube, WeChat®, email services and any other internet-accessible content
for up to 10 users simultaneously via a simple Wi-Fi connection.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

has agreements with more than 395 GSM cellular roaming partners, particularly
in the Middle East, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia that enable roaming from
the cellular service across to the satellite service on the same SIM card. This
will optimize the appeal of the Thuraya WE Hotspot, and early indications of
likely demand have been very encouraging. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Beam
Communications, has launched a new website that will give customers a complete
company toolkit at their fingertips. The website is simple to navigate and is
rich in information and resources, enabling customers to access Beam’s entire
product and service offering. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“We
have transformed the website experience for our customers,” explains Michael
Capocchi, President & CEO of Beam Communications. “Our company website is
critically important. Effectively, it is our shop window, and we wanted to make
sure that no matter who visits, they can find what they are looking for quickly
and easily.” <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The

how to buy them, as well as information on the design process, news and the

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The re-development of the website is
a reflection of Beam’s position in the global satellite communications market.
The company has grown from the developer of a satellite terminal for a local
service provider, to a highly respected Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
working with the biggest names in the MSS industry. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today, Beam is recognised as an
innovator and developer of products that have an impact on society. Used in the
most remote and hostile places on the planet, the company’s creativity and
technological expertise, enables it to solve some of the most challenging
communications problems.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“It is vitally important that Beam can reach out
to our growing global customer base and to our valued resellers,” continues
Capocchi. “The website allows us to do this in a very efficient way. Beam
places great emphasis on our customer relationships, many of which have
developed over years of business together. We also look forward to introducing
new companies to our products and services. Through our website, we can be even
more efficient and continue to provide the highest quality service to all of
our customers, no matter where in the world they are.”</span></span>Beam Communications Holdings Limitedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07856040049653463638noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053092049736600447.post-31606281605822431892016-02-21T14:41:00.001-08:002016-02-21T14:41:46.542-08:00TELSTRA STARTS SELLING IRIDIUM GO!® NATIONALLY<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Melbourne, Australia,
July 1, 2015 -- Beam Communications Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of World
Reach Limited an Australian publicly listed company (ASX: WRR) has been
appointed an official Service Provider for the Iridium® Push-to-Talk.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Iridium Communications
Inc. (Nasdaq:IRDM) today announced the initial service providers for the
Iridium Push-to-Talk (PTT) solution. Iridium PTT is the world’s first global,
satellite-based push-to-talk service, enabling instant communication between
participants located anywhere on earth. Iridium PTT provides a fast, simple,
and global service making the Iridium network available to tens, or tens of
thousands of devices with the push of a single button.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Iridium PTT is
comprised of three components that work seamlessly to provide a ubiquitous
solution globally: the Iridium PTT service delivered through the Iridium Low
Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation; the Iridium Command Center, the
cloud-based management system where all radios and talkgroups are managed; and
the Iridium PTT radios, including both the Iridium Extreme® PTT as well as
other satellite or hybrid PTT devices or accessories that may be developed to further
expand enterprise applications for Iridium PTT.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The Iridium PTT Command
Center is the first ever cloud-based customer management system for
satellite-based push-to-talk solutions. The Command Center gives organizations
the ability to easily manage and define the geographic coverage for each needed
talkgroup. The coverage areas are created using a graphical map interface
fueled by Google Maps. Through the Command Center, administrators can quickly
and easily define which devices/users are members of specific talkgroups and
how many talkgroups are needed. As situations evolve, managers are able to make
changes to groups dynamically, and these are carried out over-the-air to
Iridium PTT devices within seconds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Iridium PTT, like most
commercial and private trunked radio services solutions, uses half-duplex
communication, like a walkie-talkie, where one party talks to other
participants in a group who serve as listeners. The coverage provided by the
Iridium satellite network, as well as advanced security and features, elevates
this service far above and beyond what is currently offered today.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Iridium PTT works with
Iridium’s existing constellation and is compatible with Iridium NEXT, the
company’s next generation satellite constellation, which is scheduled to begin
launching in late </span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif;">2015 and
to be completed in late 2017.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">

promoted and sold by Beam to both direct and indirect customers within
Australia.</span>Beam Communications Holdings Limitedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07856040049653463638noreply@blogger.com05/8 Anzed Court, Mulgrave VIC 3170 Australia-37.920416 145.148869-63.442450500000007 103.84027499999999 -12.398381500000003 -173.54253700000004tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053092049736600447.post-90400943906173162972014-11-02T17:14:00.001-08:002014-11-02T17:16:28.401-08:00Inmarsat approves worlds first IsatDock2 for IsatPhone 2 by BEAM<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<br />
Australia is known for its vast land where approximately 85% of the country is considered remote and about 2.3% of the population live in remote areas. Communication has a significant impact on the population living in these communities and it is important that when natural disasters and accidents occur, emergency services can be contacted for assistance.<br />
<br />
Michael Selfe, a local worker in far north Queensland for emergency services know that there are high risks involved living in isolated geographic locations from the impact of natural disasters and accidents occurring. He experiences firsthand how crucial it is to have reliable and efficient communication at all times and in his case satellite connection is the only option.<br />
<br />
<b>Be in touch at all times</b><br />

Installed in Michael’s vehicle is a Beam DriveDOCK unit which provides everything you need to operate an Iridium Extreme® handset featuring handsfree voice, Bluetooth and tracking.<br />

“Working in emergency services, I require a phone connection that is dependable and easy to use, it is not uncommon for me to travel 4-5 hours one way before turning back home. It is imperative that I stay connected, and during times when I’m away from family, it’s nice to remain in contact. Whether I use it for work, recreational or personal, it’s there for the peace of mind.” says Michael.<br />
<br />
“A major part of my daily activity consists of being behind the wheel and traveling long distances, so having the Beam DriveDOCK allows me to make and receive calls handsfree. I have used the Iridium Extreme handset numerous times and it works better than I expected. Out here, you want to make sure that calls don’t drop out that often, I find that the usability, ease of functionality and ruggedness is exactly what I was looking for.”<br />

When an emergency occurs, the most reliable communicate is over satellite—satellite communications are a lifesaver for those living or traveling in these vast remote areas. <br />
<br />
Australia suffers through many natural disasters each year. Bushfires, cyclones, floods—disasters can strike at any moment at any location and have a huge impact on the environment and the people. Emergency services and rescue teams are always on alert and ready to quickly respond to any disaster. In an emergency, the team depends on the reliability of their communication be such voice or data, to alert authorities, contact loved, ones, coordinate rescue teams, and to facilitate the response that is required.<br />
<br />
However, in a majority of cases, either the terrestrial communication is damaged or congested, or the emergency is in locations where terrestrial communication are non-existent, such as at sea or in truly remote areas.<br />
<br />
Satellite communication (SATCOM) is the perfect option being, as it is, unaffected by terrestrial issues, all the while offering global connectivity. Nevertheless, the satellite user equipment and solutions must meet specific requirements to accommodate the needs required. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000066;"><b><i>Emergency Communication</i></b></span><br />
Disaster situations have two categorizations: The emergency and the recovery. Emergency solutions are designed to prevent or alleviate dangerous and life threatening situations by alerting authorities or rescue teams as quickly as possible. Should a vehicle be traveling in a remote area suddenly break down, SATCOM enables the operator of the vehicle to send a message or a call for assistance.<br />
<br />
Piracy at sea is an emergency scenario wherein <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/" target="_blank">Beam Communication</a> solutions can make a real difference for those involved. In case of attacks from pirates, the ship’s crew can send an Alert message to the authorities. The covert nature of the Beam solutions also makes it difficult for the pirates to notice the equipment, which is then less likely to be destroyed by the attackers. This is an example of how an emergency communication solution can be matched to very specific environmental and user requirements. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000066;"><b><i>Recovery Communication</i></b></span><br />
The recovery phase focuses on a quick deployment of resources to reach an affected area. <br />
<br />
The solution must be portable and able to handle rugged environments. The rescue team should be able to easily carry the equipment to the disaster zone and the complete solution is packaged in a robust, transportable case. Another requirement is ease of deployment and use. The emergency team is able to deploy the equipment quickly to create a local network for data communication or for deployment for voice transmissions.

Any solution must work correctly when it is needed and must continue to viably operate throughout the duration of the emergency.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000066;"><b><i>Queensland Emergency Ops</i></b></span><br />
Queensland Emergency Services deals with rescue and recovery from the occasional floods and cyclones that strike Australia every year. For example, there are huge areas of desert around geological centers in Queensland that attract many travelers and adventurers—many arrive at these locations totally unprepared for, and unaware of, the dangers that can suddenly occur in these terrains.<br />
<br />
<em>Mick Selfe</em>, who works for the emergency services, is faced with such disasters on a regular basis. He has installed a Beam <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/product/details/drivedock-extreme" target="_blank"><strong>DriveDOCK</strong> </a>docking station and an <em><strong><a href="http://www.iridium.com/products/IridiumExtremeSatellitePhone.aspx?productCategoryID=1" target="_blank">Iridium 9575</a></strong></em> in his vehicle as tried and true safety measures. He relies on Iridium 9575’s safety features to communicate with other emergency services and rescue teams when they are needed. <br />

The Royal Flying Doctors (RFDS), New South Wales, takes care to the furthest reaches of Australia. Anyone who lives, works or travels in remote and rural Australia can enjoy the best of health, thanks to this service’s use of the latest aviation advances, medical and communications technology. <br />
<br />
Services are delivered by dedicated teams of professionals with 24-hour emergency services as well as everyday essential health care.<br />
<br />
The Royal Flying Doctor’s Service is a not-for-profit organization and is supported by the Commonwealth of Australia, State and Territory governments, and also receives generous donations from corporations and the communities they serve.<br />
<br />
There are four operating sections that provide the remote and clinical services across the country. RFDS operational bases and health facilities form a strategic network that delivers effective health care via a range of staff that includes management, medical practitioners, women’s health doctors, registered nurses, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health workers, allied health professionals, pilots and administration officers in is mission to improve the health of the nation.<br />

<img align="left" alt="PeterssonFig4" border="0" hspace="15" src="http://www.satmagazine.com/cgi-bin/display_image.cgi?1978523756" vspace="15" /> RFDS installed Beam’s satellite equipment on their planes a few years ago. The <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/product/details/rst100-remotesat" target="_blank"><strong><em>RemoteSAT</em></strong> </a>unit is installed in the plane’s cabin and uses standard telephone handsets to provide reliable communications, whether on the ground or in the air.<br />
<br />
This direct communication feed helps doctors maintain those vital contacts when transferring a patient from a remote location or a disaster and moving the casualty to a surgery or hospital for urgent medical attention.<br />
<br />
IT Manager <em>Gary Oldman</em> said, “This is, by far, the best communications system we have tested. Having the quality of coverage is making it much safer and easier for our doctors and patients” <br />
<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.just4kidsmotortrail.com.au/" target="_blank">Just for Kids Children Charity</a></strong> is a registered organization with a focus on assisting disabled and disadvantaged children and affording them a true adventure. The organization travels extensively to remote areas where there is no phone service. Satellite communication is a lifesaver when something goes wrong. <br />
<br />
“One fundraiser event to the geological center in Australia (Lamberts) saw us break two springs in our food wagon that was crossing from Cameron Corner to the Strzelecki Track, an extremely remote location in the middle of the desert, delaying our arrival at Arkaroola for the night,” said Mark Louez, Director of Just4kids Motortrails.<br />
<br />
<img align="right" alt="PeterssonFig5" border="0" hspace="15" src="http://www.satmagazine.com/cgi-bin/display_image.cgi?508792979" vspace="15" /> “One hundred people had to be fed,” he continued, “and a quick Iridium call to the chef at Arkaroola Village, some 400km away in South Australia, and a meal was prepared for all of our personnel that very evening. We were also able to call our spring manufacturer in Queensland to make arrangements for a new set of springs to be sent to Alice Springs.”<br />

Ranger was completed in late December 2003 and departed Denmark in early January 2004. After a successful transatlantic crossing Ranger cruised the Caribbean before commencing her racing program in April. Early April saw Ranger competing in the St Barth’s Bucket race for yachts over 100ft., which this year had an excellent turnout of 22 yachts. Despite light winds on both days Ranger performed very well in the event, allowing the crew and guests to get some valuable practice before the more official and demanding Antigua Classic Regatta.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The <a href="http://www.iridiumextremedocks.com/" target="_blank">Iridium Extreme</a> handset fits securely in the dock, which features USB and serial data connectivity, phone charging and integrated antenna, data and power connection making it possible to keep all antenna cables and power permanently connected to the DriveDOCK ready for use.
The Iridium Extreme handset fits securely in the docking station with an easy click to lock mechanism that can be inserted and removed with a press of a button. It is purposely built to allow you to utilize the SOS emergency button and the ear-piece jack whilst docked.
Iridium have developed a new Extra LongLife Battery that can be attached to the Iridium 9555 handset. DO NOT attach this Extra LongLife Battery to the Iridium 9555 handset and attempt to dock your handset. This will cause damage to the dock and the handset. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My work involves a lot of travelling widely across Australia, covering many of the unsealed roads of the country, where it would be impossible to get any GSM network coverage. I knew I had to install a reliable, in-vehicle solution that allows handsfree communication and after having installed and used the <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/Products/9555SDG.aspx?menuId=1&miniId=2&miniSubId=8" target="_blank">Beam SatDOCK 9555</a> for the last 14 months, I am only happy to say that the support and reliability that I have received has been exceptional.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The industry I work in is Non Destructive Testing, and the nature of work involves analyzing and evaluation of materials and components. My travels have taken me to remote areas of Australia, inspecting and testing welded joints on cross country pipelines. The fresh tracks that are constructed for access can be very rough and dusty and I believe that the <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/Products/9555SDG.aspx?menuId=1&miniId=2&miniSubId=8" target="_blank">SatDOCK 9555</a> in the vehicle has stood up to its testament with its tough exterior construction and reliability of the unit. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Summing up I now have a phone that when secured in the <a href="http://www.beamcommunications.com/Products/9555SDG.aspx?menuId=1&miniId=2&miniSubId=8" target="_blank">SatDOCK 9555</a> provides me a reliable service, a stronger signal strength and having the battery always charged gives me the peace of mind and confidence at work that in a case of emergency or incident I have a tool that could make a difference.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Antarctic Logistics & Expeditions (ALE) operates the largest seasonal field camp in Antarctica. Situated at Patriot Hills, Antarctica (80 Deg 81 S 081 W), ALE provides support for intercontinental flights for tourists visiting the South Geographic Pole such as:</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">In addition ALE also provides logistics support for organizations such as British Antarctic Survey, National Science Foundation and KOPRI (Korean Polar Research Institute) as required for research and development within the vicinity of Patriot Hills.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Unlike many organizations, ALE do not have the resources to solve issues arising from poor equipment selection, rather it must rely on the first time selection of reliable and durable equipment that are cost effective. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">In particular, the RST620 unit installed in one of the Prinoth BR-350 SnoCat hauled traverse trains travelled a remarkable 3200 kms over 40 days starting in late December 2007. Throughout its journey, the RST620 never missed a beat in the important role of providing daily situation reports back to base as the traverse train made<br />the long haul from Patriot Hills up the South Pole, then onward toward the South Pole of Relative Inacessability and return.</span></div>

But unlike the buccaneers of old, they prefer to rely on modern communications like FleetPhone - Inmarsat’s new low-cost satellite phone service - while fishing in one of the most dangerous seas on the planet. </span></strong></span><br />

And although the exterior of their boat looks similar to a pirate ship from yesteryear, both of them prefer to rely on the latest modern technology systems while working off Alaska in the Bering Sea. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It offers mariners a host of features, including global coverage for its voice, text and low-speed data services, as well as Inmarsat’s 505 emergency calling capability and an additional SIM for multiple users. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"We were anticipating that the sound quality and reliability of the terminal might not perform in the areas we venture to, but the phone exceeded our expectations." The unit even provided service going through False Pass - except for a very narrow spot with steep mountainous sides, and however to be fair this is a location where our old other satellite equipment could not provide any service at all, said Captain Andy.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"And unlike our old satellite service, which couldn’t be relied on 24 hours a day, with FleetPhone we found we could make calls at any time of the day and guarantee a connection." The voice quality of the FleetPhone came in particularly useful when the crew dialled into the National Weather Forecast Office in Alaska for weather predictions. Captain Andy said: "Getting the weather forecast can literally be a matter of life or death for us and voice quality is important because we have to state our position before we can get the forecast." </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The brothers - who are both third-generation Alaskan fishermen - named their boat after the movie, Time Bandit, because they say "the sea steals your time". But having a FleetPhone helped them make up for lost time, especially when it came to getting their catch processed. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Captain Andy said: "Around 60 fishing boats get their crab catches processed at one of two plants, and we need a reliable phone to keep in contact with staff at the plants."</span></div>
