Iridium ASE-9575P-HQ Standard / Push-To-Talk Docking Station with POTS Interface

The Iridium ASE-9575P-HQ is a professional-grade, fixed-docking solution designed to bring the full suite of Iridium 9575 Extreme and PTT (Push-To-Talk) capabilities to indoor environments. Whether deployed in an office, a remote command centre, or below decks on a vessel, this station transforms a portable satellite handset into a robust, permanent communication endpoint.

Manufactured by Applied Satellite Engineering (ASE), the 9575P-HQ series is engineered to eliminate the common barriers of indoor satellite use. By providing a secure latching connection and a POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) interface, it allows users to leverage existing analogue telephony infrastructure for satellite calls, ensuring reliability even in the most rugged conditions.

Key Product Features

• Full PTT & Voice Support: Seamlessly integrates with Iridium Push-To-Talk services for instant group coordination and standard global voice calling.
• POTS/RJ-11 Interface: Enables connection to standard analogue desk phones or cordless handsets and allows integration with office PBX systems for long-distance solutions.
• High-Clarity Audio: Includes both a fist-style speaker microphone and a palm speaker/mic, providing flexible hands-free or private communication options.
• Rugged Latching Cradle: Specifically designed to securely lock the 9575 handset in place, protecting it from vibration and ensuring a constant connection to external antennas and power.
• Smart Features: Supports the Iridium Wi-Fi Access Point for data applications and maintains full access to the handset's GPS tracking and SOS emergency functions.
