ViewThe Iridium GMDSS service brings reliable, truly global GMDSS services to the market for the first time, giving the maritime industry real choice and making critical safety services available anywhere on the globe.
Leading the way is the Lars Thrane LT-3100S GMDSS terminal, a truly versatile safety system that not only provides all the required GMDSS Distress Alerting and voice support but also offers non-safety features in one package.
The Iridium GMDSS service enhances safety at sea for mariners, offering reliable coverage in sea areas where no other option exists.
The LT-3100S GMDSS Terminal from Lars Thrane A/S is the first GMDSS solution to be available for the Iridium GMDSS service. It provides, not only, the key services for GMDSS compliance - such as Distress Alert and Maritime Safety Information (MSI) - but also incorporates non-GMDSS features - non-priority voice, data and SMS - in one small form factor terminal.
Activated by the press of a button, distress alerting sends critical data to the Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC)
Once a distress alert is confirmed, the highest priority voice call is automatically made directly to the RCC.
Connect to an RCC and other maritime authorities through a call to share additional details about the distress situation.
Maritime Safety Information (MSI) is transmitted through and Enhanced Group Call (EGC) service called Iridium SafetyCastSM.
