Thuraya XT-Hotspot
WiFi Access to the Thuraya XT Satellite Phone
Accessory
adds WiFi to the Thuraya XT Satellite phone
The Thuraya
XT-Hotspot enables easy and economical internet access over
Thuraya's mobile satellite network with fast download speeds of up to
60
kbps. The XT-Hotspot uses the GmPRS connection of the Thuraya XT
handset for quick
and secure internet connectivity in the most remote locations. Users
can now access their email and browse the web using their favorite WiFi
device (smartphone, tablet, laptop, etc.).
Great Arbor Communications is the
exclusive designer and manufacturer of the XT-Hotspot.
How does it work
The
XT-Hotspot connects to the XT phone via a supplied standard USB hub.
The hotspot has an internal battery which can power the unit
for
up to 4 hours. Alternatively the unit can be powered through the
supplied 110/220 volt DC adapter. Upon powering up, the
hotspot
opens us a GmPRS connection to the Thuraya network using the
XT
handset as a packet data modem and allows authorized WiFi devices in
the vicinity to share this packet data connection.
Note the XT-Hotspot only works with the XT phone and does NOT work with the XT Dual.
