In The Zone Communications Company - Your Emergency Redundant Communications Dealer! If you can't communicate, you can't recover!

In rural villages, the QUALCOMM Globalstar Satellite Phone can be a lifeline during emergencies, or merely an affordable and reliable phone service. Where villages are outside of service areas or have unreliable communications, QUALCOMM and the Globalstar Communications System provide the ability to communicate by voice and data in most areas of the world. Anywhere within range of a Globalstar Gateway, you’ll have access to communications, because the QUALCOMM Globalstar portable satellite phones work as satellite phones where cellular coverage is not available.
With a QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-1600 Portable Tri-Mode Satellite Phone, you have the freedom and flexibility to communicate on the move. With the GSP-1600 connected to a computer or PDA using the QUALCOMM Globalstar Satellite Data Kit, you can access the Internet†, and send and receive e-mail†. With the QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-2800/GSP-2900 Fixed Satellite Phones you can set up a central communications point.

The beauty of these satellite phones is their ease of use. Service is affordable and accessible since villagers can "pay as they go" for only the calls they need to make. And in areas where incoming calls are paid for by the calling party, the cost to rural inhabitants is minimized. The satellite phone is also ideal for rural businesses, such as general stores that need to coordinate orders and deliveries.

Basic telephony is a foundation for growth and wealth, so QUALCOMM Globalstar Satellite Phones are an economic development tool as well. Local politicians and government can ensure communications for their constituents by providing access to these low maintenance, durable and trouble free satellite phones. In addition to the benefits to local villagers outlined above, the satellite phones can help the military and local government maintain communication and coordinate services. The GSP-1600 and GSP-2800/2900 are low cost universal solutions for PTT (Post Telephone and Telegraph) that also fulfill legal communication requirements for governments.

Fixed Satellite Phone Connectivity

As a central communications point, the GSP-2800/2900 Fixed Satellite Phones allow you to connect to any standard cordless or corded telephone set via a standard twisted pair connection. Because you may need to have telephone sets in one or more buildings distant from their serving Radio Antenna Units (RAU), it is possible to equip a sprawling site with multiple phone extensions with the proper choice of telephone sets. A small office setup can also be supported due to the Fixed Phone’s compatibility with PBX systems.
