How Many Inmarsat (Geo) Satellites Cover in Geostationary Orbit Above the Equator and How Do They Work?

The Inmarsat Satellite constellation consists of a fleet of 15 satellites all ‘parked’ in specific positions in a Geosynchronous (GEO) orbit approximately 36,000km above the Earth’s equator.

Delivering three
market-leading networks each generation of satellite launched into orbit since 2005
provides a massive array of unrivalled innovative new capabilities that has revolutionized
the services Inmarsat provide.

Connected To Everywhere, LAND SEA AIR

Inmarsat is currently on their sixth generation of Satellites. The Satellites are positioned to transmit radio beams in a number of different Global configurations covering the oceans, air and major land masses.

What is the History of the Inmarsat Satellite network?

Inmarsat the UK satellite telecommunications company, originally supplied big fixed installations for ships, founded in 1979 it’s a pioneer in space communications and the industry leader with the launch of Global Xpress worldwide in 2015,  for Inmarsat Satellite Phones, providing high-speed broadband to Sat user terminals.

Inmarsat originated from the International Maritime Satellite
Organization (INMARSAT), at the request of the International Maritime
Organization (IMO), the United Nation’s maritime body.

It was to enable
merchant ships to stay in touch or call for help in an emergency.

All Inmarsat Satellite Phones – Advantages

The oldest satellite communication operator, the Inmarsat Sat network is well
developed and has been operational for over forty three years.  Suffice to
say that with Inmarsat Satellite Phones, once a connection is made, it is stable.

IsatPhone-Pro (GEO SatPhone)

In terms of cost The IsatPhone-Pro could probably be the least expensive satellite phone in the market while providing near-global coverage.

2. Usually the coding and
   decoding equipment, provides you Security when making Satellite Phone calls, in addition calls made….
3. Over long distances, can be cheaper, because…
4. Satellite Phone call costs are
   independent of the distance, which means that
5. Sending and receiving
   information is independent of distance
6. You have an open line of communication
   24 hours 7 days a week, for complete peace of mind
7. High capacity in comparison
   to terrestrial networks.
8. Inmarsat
   SatPhone infrastructure and links
   are designed to work in extreme weather conditions and the same extends to
   SatPhones made of High-Quality components intended for use in robust rugged
   conditions if required
