Now that satellite is an affordable option, how long can you afford to ignore it?

BT's new M-Sat service has broken through the price barrier for satellite voice communications.

The new service uses much smaller and cheaper terminal equipment than existing systems.

And at only $5.50 per minute, the cost of calls to the US is comparable to HF radio.

Current coverage extends from the eastern

Pacific, across the Atlantic and Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf, with total worldwide coverage following shortly.

The service provides telephone, fax and data transmission, with direct dial access to more than 200 countries via BT's Goonhilly satellite station.

BT M-Sat offers you the quality, reliability and security of satellite communications at an affordable price.

Can you really afford to be without it?

The service is operating NOW.
