Imagine the confidence of being able to connect to the people and data that matter most – in the places and times that traditional communications don’t always work. Now, with the GSP-1700 satellite phone system, you have all the power of the Globalstar satellite network at your fingertips – with the world’s smallest and lightest global mobile satellite phone.
The GSP-1700 works where you want it and how you want it to. As a handheld phone, it’s the ultimate portable satellite phone.
