Data speeds of 176 Kbps mean that Certus 200 devices can be used for basic internet use, tracking, and voice communication. Because it’s a low bandwidth service, antennas are small and lightweight, and don’t need a lot of power to operate. And because it’s Iridium, with its mesh network of 66 satellites constantly circling the globe, you get 100% global coverage, even at the polar regions.
We’ve provided a small number of sample plans here, and encourage you to get in touch to get a quote for your specific airtime requirements.

*If you choose a pooled plan, then all of your devices on this plan share a pool of data. E.g. if you have 10 devices each on a 10 MB plan, that gives you a total pool of 120 MB to use per month between all of your devices, before you are charged any overage fees.
Iridium Certus 200 Coverage Map
Iridium Certus 200 uses the Iridium constellation of 66 active satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), with nine in-orbit spares. This provides L-band connectivity anywhere on Earth with a clear view of the sky – including the polar regions. L-band is one of the most stable frequency bands, and doesn’t suffer from ‘rain fade’, so you’ll get both clear voice services and a stable internet connection.
Iridium completed an upgrade of their entire network in 2019, so while Iridium has been providing services since 2002, the satellites themselves are new and very high-tech. It’s because of the upgrade that services like Certus 200 are now available. Users benefit from low latency (<1 second), global communications, a stable connection at land or sea, and high levels of security and reliability.
Would you like a quote for Certus 200 airtime?
We can provide a tailored quote if you can tell us the average usage per device per month in KB (actual or intended), and the number of devices you have. But if you don't have that information, that's OK, we can still help.
