Network Description

Iridium Communications Inc. operates a unique global mobile network using a constellation of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Unlike traditional terrestrial cellular networks that rely on ground-based infrastructure, Iridium provides coverage to the entire planet, including remote areas not serviced by GSM or LTE networks. This makes it a vital communication tool for maritime, aviation, government, and other sectors requiring connectivity in challenging environments. Iridium's network is identified globally by Mobile Country Code (MCC) 901 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 03, ensuring its devices can register and be uniquely identified wherever they are deployed.

The Iridium network stands apart from mobile networks such as those found within specific countries, such as the United States, in that it offers true 'worldwide' access. Whereas a US-based network relies on base stations and roaming agreements, Iridium satellites allow coverage no matter the territory. Services offered include satellite phones, data modems, and short burst data (SBD) services ideal for tracking and monitoring assets. Because of its satellite-based design, Iridium is a useful alternative during natural disasters when terrestrial networks may be damaged or overloaded, a key differentiator from cellular operators dependent on infrastructure vulnerable to such events.
