Created for customers preferring to use their smartphone separated from the satellite unit, with the SatSleeve Hotspot, a portable Wi-Fi Hotspot, you have the range and the room to move while you make calls, use email, send messages, or enjoy your favorite social media apps in the comfort of being in an indoor location while the hotspot is outside and facing the satellite.
Calls and Text Messages in Satellite Mode
Use your smartphone in satellite mode when there is no terrestrial network available to call and send text messages using your existing list of contacts.
Email On-the-Go
Send and receive emails from wherever you are.
Apps
Access your apps while you’re on the move – Social Media, Instant Messaging, information apps and many more.
Easy-to-Use
Simply connect your smartphone via Wi-Fi to the satellite unit and stay connected. The sound is now routed through the smartphone, allowing users to make their calls directly from the smartphone.
Compatibility
The SatSleeve Hotspot App is available as a free download from the App Store or from Google Play. Our app is available in 12 languages.
Enhance Safety Features
SatSleeve Hotspot comes equipped with an SOS call button that works even if the smartphone isn’t connected. The SOS button will make an outgoing call to a predefined number set by the user or receive an incoming call.
A World of Choices
Thuraya’s reliable and uninterrupted satellite network enables you to stay connected via satellite mode anywhere under its coverage area across Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. Thuraya SatSleeve Hotspot works either with a Thuraya SIM card or with a GSM SIM card from any of the 360+ Thuraya roaming partners worldwide.
Stand
SatSleeve Hotspot comes with a stand in the package, making your life even more convenient while you’re on-the-move.
Built-in Compression
To increase the speed when loading websites, the SatSleeve Hotspot can be used with 3 different access points (APNs). Select either high compression (no images will be downloaded for fastest website loading), low compression (images will be compressed), or no compression (full website content will be loaded). Depending on your requirements, select the most suitable APN in the GmPRS settings on your Thuraya SatSleeve Hotspot.
You can even use your smartphone in satellite mode indoors if you place your hotspot outside with a view of the satellite!
