1. What is a satellite terminal?

A satellite terminal is a device that connects to satellites to provide internet, voice, or data communication in remote or off-grid locations. It typically includes an antenna and modem and is used in industries like maritime, defense, emergency services, or remote travel.

2. Do satellite phones still exist?

Yes, satellite phones are still widely used, especially in areas with no mobile coverage such as oceans, deserts, and disaster zones. They rely on satellite networks like Iridium or Inmarsat to provide reliable voice and text communication anywhere on the planet.

3. Can I travel with a satellite phone?

You can travel with a satellite phone in most countries, but it's important to check local regulations as some regions restrict or require permits for satellite communication devices. For international travel, always carry documentation for the device and check compatibility with the satellite network used in your destination.
