Atlantic Radio Telephone has released the WiFi version of its SatStation Extreme Desktop Dock, thought to be the first WiFi-enabled docking station for an Iridium satellite phone.

Designed specifically for the Iridium 9575 Extreme satellite phone, the SatStation includes an embedded optimiser board by RedPort Global.

CJ Webber, CEO, Atlantic Radio Telephone, said: “The SatStation Extreme Desktop Dock not only provides customers with an easy to install docking solution, but also allows them to integrate their satellite phone with their smart phone or tablet. Satellite phone users have a growing demand for technology that is compatible with the devices they use every day, and it is imperative we recognise this and respond.”

The SatStation Extreme Desktop Dock – WiFi enables users to place and receive calls and offers satellite-optimised email, web browsing, weather, blogging and social media services.

A non-WiFi version of the dock is also being released.
