How Sat-Fi Works
Sat-Fi is a VoIP to satellite bridge allowing you to send and receive satellite calls through your
smartphone. You will be able to carry just a single phone and use that smartphone on both your cellular
and Globalstar's satellite network.
Sat-Fi is designed for both vehicle-based and fixed locations. Vehicle-based examples may include cars,
trucks, RVs, ATVs as well as boats. Fixed location solutions may include remote areas where there is no
cellular coverage and satellite communication is desired or needed.
An example of a typical Sat-Fi user would be a boat owner who uses a satellite phone when heading out
on the water. With a Sat-Fi onboard, the owner does not have to carry both a smartphone and satellite
phone; all he needs to do is simply register his smartphone on Sat-Fi when he boards. The owner is now
free to move about the vessel while maintaining both cellular (if available) and satellite connectivity all on
one phone. Additionally with a smartphone there is no need to achieve proper antenna alignment or have
a clear view of the sky to send or receive satellite calls. If Sat-Fi is properly mounted, the owner can send
or receive satellite calls anywhere on the vessel with his smartphone.
While normal mobile satellite phones are single user devices, Sat-Fi allows for multiple simultaneous user
connections. While only one satellite call can be made at a time, up to 8 users may connect to a single
Sat-Fi sharing its satellite connection. Once you are registered and connected to the Sat-Fi device you
are immediately able to make outbound calls. Additional users and guests will be able to register their
smartphones on Sat-Fi and make calls or data connections.
All calls and data connections are made through the Sat-FI App. This app needs to be downloaded on
your Android or iOS device in order to connect to the Globalstar network.
