Iridium GO! Data Tips

Reduce your data costs & improve your satellite data experience

Iridium data applications provide satellite data speeds up to 2.4kbps. Satellite data is not as fast as 3G or 4G mobile data and it costs more. Follow these recommendations for effective use of Iridium satellite data for the best possible Iridium data experience:

  • Use mobile optimised websites wherever possible, use the list provided by Iridium
  • Use the mobile, low bandwidth optimised version of Google
  • Avoid large downloads such as large email attachments, music or video
  • Reduce the image quality and size of pictures when sending as an email attachment
  • Use websites that offer a text only display option

Please note: use of satellite telecommunications services and devices may be prohibited or restricted in some countries.
