SMS and email messaging is limited to 160 characters and delivery/receipt is dependent on compatibility with local mobile network carriers.   Data Tethering Although low-speed data is possible we only advise and support connections using the RedPort Optimizer in tandem with the XGate Satellite Phone Email & Data Services. Both of these tools enhance your data connection making the most of the speed available. Any connections attempted without these solutions may appear to work, and potentially use airtime, but may not provide the expected service.     SOS Emergency Button  The Iridium Extreme®Satellite Phone has a programmable emergency button that activates critical, rapid response when you need it most. It is the only satellite phone currently available with emergency services supported by GEOS International Emergency Response Coordinating Center, included at no additional cost.   GPS Positioning  The Iridium Extreme Sat Phone is equipped with Location Based Services (LBS) enabling GPS positioning.
