  • Simply plug the cordless phone into your ClientSAT marine unit and make/take calls anywhere in you vessel just like a cordless phone at home.
  • Phone coverage The Thuraya satellite closest to Australia is based just west of Singapore 37,000 KMS above the equator. You will need to see a clear line of site “look up angle” (above the horizon) in that direction. If that path is not visible due to buildings, mountains heavy foliage etc. then the phone will need be relocated so it can see the satellite that angle and direction. Thuraya use Geo-synchronous satellites which are always in the same position relative to the Earth. This map represents Thuraya expectations of coverage.

Airtime

Thuraya Maritime Big Bundle

ClientSAT recommends the $79/ month plan for the Seastar units.

This is fantastic value as it includes $400 of monthly usage.

As an example this could be 200 x 2 minute calls or 80Mb of data or 800 text messages, probably a combination of these depending on circumstances but still to the value of $400! (These rates apply when calling standard Australian mobile phones or landlines. Higher rates apply to other services.)

So included satellite phone usage equates to just $0.20 / minute or included satellite data usage for just $1.00 / Mb. Full rate details are shown below.

 

The phones will be supplied with local Australian mobile numbers 04XX XXX XXX so when calling them the caller will be charged at their normal “calls to mobile rates”. People usually have included usage bundles on their mobile phones, so when using within bundle call allowance on a mobile phone they would effectively be calling the satellite phones at no out of pocket expense!
