SAILOR
SC4000

SAILOR® communications systems are well-known for their quality, reliability and continuous innovation; the SAILOR® SC4000 Iridium is no exception.

The SAILOR® SC4000 is suited for all types of vessels - from fishing boats and cargo ships to powerboats, yachts and cruise liners - even in remote areas, both on land and at sea. The SC4000 puts you in closer contact with the world.

The compact SC4000 consists of only three units: the antenna SA4110, the transceiver ST4120 and the intelligent handset SC4150 – intelligent, because it is a combined handset and control unit. It can operate with as many as four handsets, making it possible to use the system anywhere on board. The fact that the antenna can always "see" three Iridium satellites ensures good contact at all times and guarantees a clear signal irrespective of the distance between communicating parties.

In spite of its very slim and delicate design, the SAILOR SC4000 antenna is very sturdy. It has no moving parts, and the helix construction is coated with glass-enforced epoxy, which is highly weather-resistant and able to withstand the extreme conditions at sea.

The SAILOR SC4150 is handset and control unit in one. Navigating through a logical menu structure, it is easy to use as it is operated in exactly the same way as a conventional mobile phone. The large LCD display shows all the major functions and includes system surveillance and all the usual mobile phone functions. As it is equipped with a small but efficient loudspeaker, incoming calls are easy to hear – even in wheelhouses and other noisy environments.


The robust SAILOR ST4120 transceiver features metal protective housing for professional maritime installations. The easy access to the SIM card reader allows crew members straightforward insertion of their own SIM cards. The transceiver is easy to install and is the central hub of the entire SAILOR SC4000 Iridium system.
