Product Description

Globalstar GSP-1700

Imagine being able to connect to the people and data that matter most – in the places and times that traditional communications don’t always work. The GSP-1700 is the ultimate handheld portable satellite phone. Using the optional GIK-1700 installation kit, you can easily create a complete satellite phone system in your vehicle or vessel from the smallest car to the largest aircraft carrier. Antenna and cable length options were designed for ease of installation on land or sea – or simply use the phone hands-free with the optional industrial noise-canceling headset.

The GSP-1700 ensures communication never stops by providing redundancy communications in case of terrestrial network outages or unavailability. Powered 100% by Globalstar’s Satellite Network, users can make and receive phone calls, retrieve GPS location, and dial out directly to emergency services with locally based phone numbers (where available).

SMALL PHONE, HUGE ADVANTAGES
Be heard with CDMA crystal-clear digital voice quality. Fast data speeds at 9.6 Kbps. Position Location Service – get your Latitude and Longitude directly from your Globalstar phone. Enjoy locally based phone numbers where available.

The new ergonomic design makes this handset convenient for keeping in contact with remote locations. The antenna communicates with the Globalstar satellite at elevations more than 10 degrees above the horizon. The Globalstar antenna rotates and stows into the handset for convenience when not in use.

Globalstar is no longer sending out new phones, all purchases are pre-owned
