The ASE Bag Dock is a first responder bag that works with both the Iridium 9575 Extreme and 9575 Extreme Push-to-Talk (PTT) phones (Handsets). The ASE Bag Dock is specifically and purpose-built for rapid deployment for first responder teams for natural and man-made disasters. The Bag Dock is perfect for use in emergency responder communication systems, or for remote or solo field workers.
The Bag Dock has a magnetic mount antenna that can be placed either on the rooftop of a vehicle or placed onto any nearby structure such as a top of a temporary structure to provide the best possible “view of the sky” to connect with the Iridium in the most robust fashion. This view of the sky is most critical when using the new powerful Iridium Push-to-Talk (PTT) service from Iridium.
Use the antenna inside a vehicle if needed by using suction cups inside the windshield/windscreen. The Bag Dock also eliminates the need for using the Iridium charging accessory that attaches to the base of the phone/handset. It enhances the phone in two ways:
- Provides a convenient connection port that uses the Iridium AC or Cigar/Cigarette Charger.
- Improves the audio by shipping with a Palm Mic (Microphone speaker)—sometimes referred to a “Fist Mic.”
