Flightcell International and Iridium

Iridium Satellite LLC
Iridium provides global satellite voice and data solutions with complete coverage of the earth (including oceans, airways and Polar regions), delivering essential communications services to and from remote areas where no other form of communication is available. Iridium makes this possible through its constellation of 66 low-earth orbiting, cross-linked satellites. The Iridium service is ideally suited for industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities.

The Iridium/Flightcell International partnership
Over the past few years, Flightcell International have worked with Iridium engineers to develop the Flightcell Pro interface, making it the highest quality satellite phone interface for civil and military aviators the world over. Flightcell Pro plugs straight in to the Iridium 9505/9505A satellite phone without the need for an adaptor.

Using Flightcell Pro, your Iridium satellite phone can be connected through to your headset enabling rapid, effective and fully global communication even in high-noise environments.

The Iridium/Flightcell partnership offers many diverse benefits:
  • Military Aviators: the US military use Iridium and Flightcell Pro in all of their heavy lift aircraft.
  • Corporate clients wishing to conduct business discussions on international routes
  • Charter operators and general aviators who go outside the reach of cell phone and radio contact in the course of their flight paths. 
Flightcell Pro interfaces with most satellite phones, however we recommend that you contact us to check for compatibility.
