GLOBALSTAR MARINE KIT

“Satellite or Cellular, Above or Below Deck”

To adapt their phones for marine use Globalstar USA and NavCom Digital have developed a customized Marine Kit. Easily installed, the system was designed so that cruisers can enjoy the versatility of a portable phone on deck and ashore, while also allowing for convenient use of both satellite and cellular service in the comfort of a protected, interior environment such as a navstation or pilothouse. The Marine Kit makes it easy to use a Personal Computer (PC) or Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) to access the Internet, send e-mail, or fax.

The Globalstar Marine Kit combines the Globalstar Mobile Kit (GCK-1410) with special antenna adapters and cables to provide for an easy installation with the greatest variety of mounting options for any vessel. The Marine Kit allows convenient mounting of the Qualcomm built tri-mode handset (GSP-1600) in a mount connected to the Globalstar Electronic Module (GEM) or “black box”. The GEM can be mounted in any convenient area near the phone. The GEM also connects the corded privacy handset, hands-free microphone and speaker to the external marine satellite antenna and optional marine cellular antenna. A 6-foot serial data cable (RS232) is provided for easy connection to a PC or PDA. The entire system is powered by ship’s 12 volt DC.

The Globalstar Marine Kit also includes a marine adapter (GMA-2003) for the omni-directional satellite antenna that allows for mounting on a standard marine 1-inch male threaded pipe mount. A variety of pipe mounts are available to fit virtually any marine installation. An 16-foot satellite antenna cable is provided with a 30, 45 or 80-ft. cable available as an option. An optional Shakespeare 4-foot fiberglass long-range marine cellular antenna also using a standard 1-inch mount is available that will accommodate digital as well as analog cellular service on the same phone.
