ASE 9575P HQ-H87 Docking Station for Iridium Extreme & PTT (Office/HQ with DPL Handset)

The ASE 9575P HQ-H87 Docking Station is a specialised, fixed-site communication terminal designed for office-based command and control. While it provides the same robust Iridium network integration as the standard HQ series, the "H87" variant is distinguished by the inclusion of a DPL Privacy Handset, offering a traditional telephone experience for sensitive voice conversations.

Manufactured by Applied Satellite Engineering (ASE), this station is engineered for indoor environments where users need to bridge the gap between a rooftop satellite antenna and a desk-based operational post. It supports both standard Iridium voice and Push-to-Talk (PTT) services, ensuring constant connectivity during terrestrial network outages.

Key Product Features

• DPL Privacy Handset: Includes a dedicated privacy handset for standard voice calls, allowing for discreet communication in shared office spaces. Note: The privacy handset is supported for standard voice only and is not used in PTT mode.
• Analog Phone Support (POTS): Features an RJ11 interface to connect standard analog phones or wireless base stations, extending satellite dial-tone throughout the building.
• Desk RAM Swivel Mount: Comes equipped with a heavy-duty adjustable mount, allowing the dock to be positioned for optimal visibility and ergonomic access on a desk or console.
• Seamless PTT Integration: Specifically designed to handle the rapid-fire nature of Iridium Push-to-Talk coordination, providing a reliable indoor hub for field team management.
• Intelligent Charging: Securely cradles the Iridium 9575 Extreme, maintaining the handset's internal battery at 100% while connected to external power.
