SEND A MESSAGE TO ANYONE, ANYWHERE AT ANYTIME. INDOORS OR OUTSIDE, FROM POLE TO POLE - WE HAVE IT COVERED. |
Whilst satellite based paging has been achieved in the past, the reception limitations, software deficiencies and hardware capabilities have severely constrained the feasible range of applications.
The GDB Pager is a revolution in wireless communication technology. Together with the Iridium Burst® service, the GDB Pager offers the first truly global roaming capability in a small, hand-held, personal message receiver. Whilst it offers the best in paging features, the GDB Pager does not operate like a typical pager. Most pagers receive messages transmitted from towers on the ground. The GDB Pager receives messages transmitted directly from satellite. With most satellite-based communication, such as satellite TV or the Global Positioning System (GPS), a satellite dish or hand-held unit must be positioned outside of buildings to receive information. However, with the GDB Pager, you can now receive messages inside buildings.
From tsunami warnings to weather and traffic alerts, over-the-air updates and other machine-to-machine (M2M) applications, the GDB Pager presents an unrivalled opportunity for businesses, government agencies, military and other entities to broadcast and receive data.

FAQS
How does the GDB Pager compare with existing paging operators that offer international service?
GDB is the first and only truly global paging service. Most pagers receive messages transmitted from towers on the ground. The GDB pager receives messages transmitted directly from satellite. A subscriber may receive paging messages virtually anywhere on earth, from remote areas like the ocean or poles to populated metropolitan areas.

How long will it take for the message to get to the user?
Delivery time for pager messages depends on the length of the message. Most messages will be delivered within 20 seconds. If you wish to send a message to every pager in a country, then this may take a little longer.
