The Inmarsat Fleet Service Introduction
speed may be reduced when other users are using the
same channel. The channel to be shared among the users
has a capacity of 64 kbps in the direction to the terminal,
and from the terminal the channel to be shared among the
users has a capacity of 28 kbps.
Important notice: Before a terminal can be used on the
network, it has to be commissioned by one of the Inmarsat
Service Providers (ISP’s). In order to use the different
Inmarsat Fleet services it is necessary to have at least one
Inmarsat Mobile Number (IMN) for each of the above
mentioned services. In case all 3 circuit switched services
are commissioned on your terminal, you will have 3 IMN
numbers.
Calling an Inmarsat Fleet terminal is equal to making
international calls. If the satellite region/area is not known
for the terminal the “country” code for a terminal is 870.
When you dial an Inmarsat Fleet terminal through the
public network, you have to dial the IMN number in
addition to the international access code for Inmarsat, e.g.:
+870 600 555 555
Making calls from an Inmarsat Fleet terminal is equal to
making international calls, as the country code always has
to be dialed.
