IMF 1000 Iridium
Satellite Terminal

The Iridium System on which the IMF 1000 operates is the first
truly global satellite network for telecommunication. It provides
global spot beam coverage for satellite telephones and offers
also unique cross-over protocol raming facilities for all existing
telephones. 66 cross-linked Low Earth Orbit satellites (LEOs)
form a worldwide grid only 780 km above Earth. The Iridium
antenna always can see 3 satellites at the same time which
ensures good contact at all times and guarantees a clear signal
irrespective of the distance between the communicating parties.

The IMF 1000 is well-suited for all types of vessels – from fishing
boats and cargo ships to powerboats, yachts and cruise liners
- even in remote areas, both on land and at sea. The IMF 1000
puts you in closer contact with the world.

The compact IMF 1000 consists of only three units:

n Antenna IAU 1000
n The smart, ruggedized
transceiver ITU 1000 with a
built-in SIM card reader unit

n The intelligent handset
ICU 1000 - intelligent, because
it is a combined handset and
control unit. It can operate
with as many as four
handsets, making it possible
to use the system everywhere
on board.

Features:
n 2.4 kbps data transmission and Iridium´s 10 kbps compressed data service n Direct connection for PABX or standard telephones n Easy to install and requires a minimum of space n Small and light-weight antenna with no moving parts n Easy to use; works like a mobile phone n Easily accessed SIM-card reader n Low power consumption	n Specially designed and developed for the demanding environment at sea n Built-in loudspeaker n Up to four handsets n Intelligent Man Machine Interface (MMI) n Repeat call function n Memory for up to 100 telephone numbers n Approved according to applicable EC standards and IEC 945
