Below are some of the satellite phones we can assist you with.
Handset Subsidies
Before buying a handset, it is worth checking if you are eligible for a handset subsidy which is available to people who live, work or operate a business in an area not served by the traditional terrestrial (GSM or CDMA) mobile networks.
Telstra Mobile Satellite dealers have details of the government subsidy scheme and can assist you with additional information and contacts.
Please note that the application for a government subsidy must be made before you purchase your handset.
