Stay Connected Beyond Cellular Coverage

The SolusGuard Satellite Extender is a pocket-sized satellite communicator that pairs to a worker's smartphone over Bluetooth and carries SolusGuard check-ins, two-way messages, and SOS alerts over the Iridium satellite network. Setup is plug-and-play - unbox it, power it on, connect it to the app - and it gives the SolusGuard mobile safety app a working connection in places with no cellular coverage at all.

Yes. The SolusGuard mobile safety app automatically reroutes check-ins, alerts, and messages over a paired satellite extender when a phone can't reach a cell tower, using the Iridium satellite network for global, 24/7 coverage. No manual switch is required.

The Iridium satellite network. Iridium is a low-Earth-orbit constellation that covers the entire planet, including remote bush, open water, and polar regions where cellular networks and regional satellite services have gaps. SolusGuard alerts and check-ins can be sent 24/7 from anywhere with a clear view of the sky.

No. The SolusGuard app always prioritizes the fastest available route: it uses cellular whenever there is a signal and falls back to the paired Satellite Extender when there isn't. Workers never choose a network, flip a setting, or resend a message - the routing happens in the background.

Up to 120 hours of battery life, or roughly five days, on a full charge. That covers a multi-day rotation or a remote shift without a mid-shift recharge. The extender runs on its own battery rather than drawing power from the worker's phone.

Yes. The SolusGuard Satellite Extender is waterproof, dustproof, and freeze-resistant, so it holds up to rain, snow, mud, and cold-weather shifts. It is small enough to clip to a pack, belt, or vest and then forget about until it's needed.

No. A cell booster only amplifies an existing cellular signal, so it does nothing where there is no tower at all. A satellite phone is a separate device with its own number and interface to learn. The SolusGuard Satellite Extender instead adds satellite connectivity to the phone and app a worker already uses, so the safety process doesn't change when coverage does.

Satellite service is provided as part of your SolusGuard plan rather than as a separate carrier contract a worker has to manage. Pricing depends on team size and how many workers need satellite coverage, so contact the SolusGuard team for a quote.
