| GLOBAL SATELLITE NETWORK |
FLEXIBLE SATELLITE AIRTIME PLANS |
COMPACT, RUGGED DESIGN |
| Instead of relying on cellphone coverage, your messages, SOS alerts and location tracking are transferred via the global Iridium® satellite network. |
To access the Iridium network and communicate with your inReach Mini 2, an active satellite subscription is required. You can opt for an annual package or a flexible month-to-month plan. |
Don’t let the 4” x 2” size and 3.5 oz weight fool you. inReach Mini 2 is tough, durable, impact resistant (MIL-STD-810) and water-rated to IPX7. |
