Thales Missionlink 700

The MissionLINK 700 — developed by Thales in partnership with Iridium Communications — is a best‑in‑class satellite communications terminal designed for global land‑mobile, on‑the‑move and fixed‑site applications. It offers full pole‑to‑pole coverage via the Iridium Certus® 700 broadband service, enabling critical voice and data communications wherever the mission takes you. 

—　Key Features　—

1. Global connectivity
Built on Iridium's 66 cross-linked satellite constellation, enabling true global coverage (including the polar regions).

2. IP data connectivity and voice services
Supports downlink speeds of up to 704 kbps, uplink speeds of up to 352 kbps, streaming mode up to approximately 256 kbps, up to three simultaneous voice calls, and broadband data transmission capabilities.

3. Solid & rugged design
Features a high-gain, electronically‑steered phased-array antenna, and contains no mechanical components, making it suitable for harsh environments and mobile installation scenarios. It is certified to MIL-STD military standards as well as IP66/IP67 protection ratings.

4. Flexible integration
Easy installation in vehicles, fixed sites, or mobile platforms; supports Wi‑Fi, Ethernet (LAN/WAN ports), and can be control via Android/iOS apps, allowing multiple devices to connect wirelessly at the same time. It features a built-in "preferred routing switcher" that can integrate terrestrial mobile or other networks.

5. Mission‑critical features
Includes emergency alerts, tracking/location services, telemedicine support, satellite‑to‑radio gateway capability, and option for streaming IP up to 256 kbps. Support additional services such as, real‑time emergency alerts / distress notifications, location tracking, telemedicine support, cargo/asset monitoring.

—　Scenarios　—

The MissionLINK 700 is ideal for organisations and operations where connectivity must be truly global, resilient, and always‑on. Including:

• Land‑mobile fleets (armoured vehicles, command posts, public service vehicles)

• Fixed facilities in remote or restricted areas

• Mobile missions operating in harsh or challenging terrain

• Applications requiring simultaneous voice/data, tracking, emergency communications

Advantages:

• Reliable coverage: Ensures uninterrupted satellite service regardless of how remote or mobile the operation is.

• Long-term investment value: Features an upgradeable architecture and scalable, integrated design to support future requirements.

• Rugged & mobile‑ready: Certified for extreme temperatures, vibration and environmental conditions, built for real‑world mission use.

• All‑in‑one connectivity: Combines voice, data, tracking, Wi‑Fi and network‑routing in a single, easy-to-install device.
