Globe Wireless has successfully concluded a rigorous testing program for the new Iridium OpenPort maritime satcom system and is delivering units to customers.

As the Charter Distribution partner for the Iridium OpenPort service, Globe conducted an extensive independent testing of Iridium OpenPort to verify that the product meets the highest degree of reliability expected by its maritime customers. Globe Wireless ran Iridium OpenPort through a full battery of performance and environmental tests to confirm Iridium OpenPort ruggedness for the harsh marine environment, including stress testing to verify the robustness during high traffic loading conditions. Globe Wireless has also implemented GlobeSecure, its advanced firewall for OpenPort.
