Skylink Satellite Phone Hub

Enterprise Satellite Communications Indoors

The Skylink Satellite Phone Hub is designed to bring reliable satellite voice communications inside offices, emergency operation centers, industrial facilities, and remote buildings. Rather than requiring users to step outside with a handheld satellite phone, the system distributes satellite voice services throughout the building using standard telephones, cordless handsets, and compatible smartphone applications connected over the local network.

Powered by the Blue Sky Network SkyLink 5100 Satellite Terminal, the system uses the Iridium Certus® network to provide dependable communications virtually anywhere in the world, including areas where terrestrial communications are unavailable or have been disrupted. Two independent satellite voice lines allow concurrent calls, making the solution well suited for organizations that require reliable communications during emergencies, disaster recovery, or routine remote operations.

A Complete Indoor Satellite Communications Solution

The Skylink Satellite Phone Hub combines satellite communications, traditional telephony, Wi-Fi, and networking into a single integrated platform that is easy to deploy and simple to use. Instead of relying on dedicated handheld satellite phones, users can make and receive satellite calls using familiar desk phones, cordless handsets, or compatible smartphone applications connected to the local Wi-Fi network.

The system includes a wide range of enterprise communication features, including:

• Two independent Iridium satellite phone numbers for simultaneous voice calls
• HD-quality voice powered by the Iridium Certus® 9770 platform, delivering significantly clearer audio than traditional narrowband satellite phones
• Cisco Wi-Fi 6 access point supporting satellite calls from compatible iPhone and Android SIP applications, including Grandstream Wave Lite
• Two standard RJ11 analog telephone ports supporting both wired and cordless telephones
• Outdoor SkyLink 5100 terminal with installation flexibility using up to 300 feet of CAT6 Power over Ethernet (PoE) cable
• Dual Ethernet LAN interfaces with satellite IP connectivity of up to 88 Kbps download and 22 Kbps upload
• Integrated LTE modem and SIM capability for local WAN connectivity and remote IoT management

This combination allows organizations to deploy a complete indoor satellite communications system without changing the way users normally place or receive telephone calls.

Flexible Installation for Almost Any Facility

The SkyLink 5100 outdoor terminal is designed to be mounted where satellite visibility is optimal while all networking and telephone equipment remains safely indoors. Using a single CAT6 Power over Ethernet cable for runs of up to 300 feet simplifies installation on offices, warehouses, emergency operation centers, utility buildings, construction trailers, and other facilities where direct access to the satellite network may be limited.

Because the communications equipment is installed inside the building, users benefit from a familiar office-style environment while maintaining reliable satellite connectivity through the outdoor terminal.

Built for Business Continuity and Remote Operations

The Skylink Satellite Phone Hub is designed for organizations that cannot afford to lose communications when cellular or terrestrial networks become unavailable. It provides dependable voice communications for emergency management, utilities, transportation companies, industrial facilities, government agencies, healthcare providers, and businesses operating in remote or disaster-prone locations.

The addition of LTE connectivity also enables local WAN access and remote IoT management when cellular service is available, allowing the system to support both everyday operations and contingency communications from a single platform.

Its combination of satellite voice, IP connectivity, traditional telephony, Wi-Fi integration, and flexible installation makes the Skylink Satellite Phone Hub a practical communications solution for facilities that require dependable connectivity regardless of local infrastructure availability.
