Inmarsat-C from Stratos


C-SMS

C-SMS is the Stratos Short Messaging Service


between the Inmarsat-C network and GSM mobile
phones. With a minimum of effort you can send
short messages to any GSM user. GSM users can
also register at Stratos to send messages to
Inmarsat-C terminals.

Instructions: How to send a C-SMS

C-SMS provides a direct link between two worldwide


networks: the Inmarsat-C satellite network and GSM
phones. No additional hardware or software is
needed. If your message is longer than the standard
160 characters, it will be split into the necessary
number of SMS messages to be delivered to the GSM
phone. Note that this service is only available on LES
12.
