Adventure travel and expeditions
Many organised adventure race events and expeditions rely on us to provide efficient satellite and radio communication systems in some of the toughest environments in the world to coordinate logistics and ensure the safety of their participants.
Whether it’s for a high-impact adrenaline race or a long-distance endurance expedition, we are experts in global safety whilst travelling and can offer you the best advice on satellite rental equipment and prepaid airtime packages to support your endeavours.
We also support large groups and families travelling in remote areas, such as Australia, the USA and Africa with rental of satellite phones for added assurance and safety at the touch of a button. Satellite Wi-Fi hotspots such as Iridium Go! provide access to the internet for social media and other information, such as banking, maps and weather.
Data use can be managed easily with smart bandwidth management solution INTEGRA Control. INTEGRA Control will alert you when you are nearing, or have reached your pre-applied limits, therefore, improving the efficiency of communications and preserving valuable data and avoiding expensive out of allowance charges.
Personal use
Satellite phone or Wi-Fi terminal rentals can often be a cost-effective alternative to purchasing expensive equipment for short term usage, or from paying high GSM roaming data charges.
Venture into uncharted territory while still being able to contact help in the event of an emergency, or simply stay in touch with family and friends with AST Networks' effective satellite communications systems and solutions. Satellite phones allow both inbound and outbound calls and messaging. Some devices, such as the Iridium Go!, can link to your normal smartphone and therefore provide access to data.
Additionally, a satellite phone can be used for GPS tracking as well as sending SOS messages for emergency situations.
