## Guide Details How To Bring Your Own Device (Smartphone, Tablet Or Computer) To Access Satellite Voice, Email, Web, Weather, Social Media And Blogging Services

Maryville, TN (PRWEB) August 19, 2014

[![BYOD Guide to Iridium GO! Globalstar Sat-Fi](https://blog.pulsarbeyond.com/hs-fs/file-1516798116-png/images/byod_cover_image.png)](https://web.globalmarinenet.com/byod-satellite-wifi-equipment)GMN, the leader in advancing satellite data speeds and services, today announced the release of a new [Satellite BYOD](http://www.prweb.net/Redirect.aspx?id=aHR0cDovL3dlYi5nbG9iYWxtYXJpbmVuZXQuY29tL2J5b2Qtc2F0ZWxsaXRlLXdpZmktZXF1aXBtZW50) (Bring Your Own Device) guide that covers everything needed to use a smartphone, tablet or laptop via a satellite connection, providing seamless coverage far beyond cellular. Satellite BYOD has come of age in 2014 with the availability of new satellite BYOD terminals including the Iridium GO!; Globalstar Sat-Fi; Thuraya SatSleeve, Inmarsat IsatHub; RedPort Optimizer and RedPort Aurora.

“GMN ignited the satellite BYOD revolution several years ago with the launch of the RedPort Optimizer, letting virtually any satellite phone work with the mobile devices people already have and love. Connect to the BYOD device via your own equipment to make calls, do email, post to social media, check the weather, and even web browse, depending on the unit,” said Dr. Luis Soltero, CTO of GMN. “This new generation of satellite BYOD devices gives people important and varied options. GMN created this clear comparison document to simplify the selection process and help people understand which equipment best meets their needs.”

“BYOD: The Bring Your Own Device Satellite Revolution” covers everything a user needs to know to understand this new way of connecting with the world, including: 

-     What is satellite BYOD
-     Satellite BYOD advantages
-     Satellite BYOD pros and cons
-     How does satellite BYOD work?
-     Satellite BYOD terminals
-     Satellite BYOD applications
-     Satellite BYOD airtime
-     Satellite BYOD user groups
-     Satellite BYOD comparison charts
-     Satellite BYOD users

“Whether you are a single sailor wanting to use your iPad for navigation at sea, a crew member needing to check email from home, or on the bridge and using your smartphone for intra-crew communication on a ship, BYOD has options for you,” continued Dr. Soltero.

Satellite consumers, retailers and service providers can download the satellite BYOD guide at no charge by visiting [http://web.globalmarinenet.com/byod-satellite-wifi-equipment/](http://www.prweb.net/Redirect.aspx?id=aHR0cDovL3dlYi5nbG9iYWxtYXJpbmVuZXQuY29tL2J5b2Qtc2F0ZWxsaXRlLXdpZmktZXF1aXBtZW50Lw==).
