Iridium’s Direct Internet 2.0 Data Service provides enhanced Internet connectivity through dedicated servers at the Iridium gateway, allowing you to execute accelerated file transfers and to more efficiently browse the Internet and exchange email. Using this service, you connect directly to the Internet, using your Iridium phone as a data modem. Improved effective data throughput is achieved through user defined levels of image and text compression. The channel rate is still 2.4 Kbps, but an effective throughput of over 10kbps can be achieved depending on content and the user defined acceleration level. Before using Direct Internet 2.0, you will need to install the client software on your computer.
How it WorksTo access the Direct Internet 2.0 service, you will need a computer and data capable Iridium phone. You will connect the computer to the Iridium phone with a serial cable. In essence, the Iridium phone appears as an external modem to your computer. By initiating a connection through the preconfigured dial-up connection, your handset will dial and initiate a connection with the Iridium gateway through the Iridium satellite constellation, and the switch will route the call to the Direct Internet 2.0 server. Once connected to the Direct Internet 2.0 server and a session has been established, the Direct Internet 2.0 Accelerator will automatically detect the connection and enhance your browsing speed. You can then check your email and browse the Internet just like you would via standard dial-up service, except that now you have the advantages offered by the Direct Internet 2.0 Data Service.
