*Iridium will be making some network enhancements within the Gateway which will be completed later this year, will allowing the PEP option to become operational and to offer further performance improvements. New firmware will need to be installed within the Pilot or OpenPort terminal to make use of the new gateway features. Once available, Iridium recommend this software is also installed on any original OpenPort terminals.
Pricing for Iridium Pilot will remain the same as the orginal OpenPort terminal, and will continue to benefit from a 5 year limited warranty and access to the Iridium Global Service Program, providing options for 63 ports worldwide where onboard servicing is available. In addition Iridium Pilot is operational now through AST's Point of Presence (POP) offering full control over traffic.
*YOU SHOULD ASK A QUOTATION when you need to buy particular accessories; for example an antenna and cable so that we can give you the correct cable to connect your antenna to your device with all adapters that you may need.
