Augmentation of land-based telecommunication services is certainly of high importance to most governmental agencies, especially those involved in the area of public health. And that’s why the New Zealand Ministry of Health is now going to rely on Iridium Satellite phones to help the agency ensure continuity of operations in the event of natural or manmade disasters. The Ministry of Health is going to purchase Iridium handsets and airtime through Wright Technologies, a hardware and air time solutions provider who makes their purchases through Applied Satellite Technologies.
Wright Technologies will be providing the 9505A Iridium handsets. They’ll be distributed to the country’s 21 District Health boards. Being small and resistant to water, dust and shock makes the iridium 9505A ideal for rugged conditions. Plus, it has a quick access interface, data capability, 21 language choices for prompts and hands-free capability—Bethesda, Maryland
