Aquapac Satcom Phone Case — IPX8 Submersible Case for Satellite Communications Handsets

Aquapac Satcom Waterproof Case: IPX8 Submersible Enclosure for Satellite Communications

Mission-critical operations in remote maritime, defense, offshore energy, and overland expedition environments depend on uninterrupted satellite communications. Standard commercial cases fail to accommodate the extended antenna form factors of dedicated satellite handsets while exposing expensive hardware to saltwater corrosion, tropical downpours, and fine dust infiltration. The Aquapac 340 Satcom Phone Case is specifically engineered to provide IPX8 submersible waterproof protection to satellite communications gear without dampening RF signal clarity or interfering with deployable stub antennas.

Constructed from heavy-duty, high-frequency welded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), the 340 features an elongated flexible antenna sleeve that accommodates left- and right-handed antenna configurations. The clear capacitive TPU face allows full access to physical keypads and screen menus, while the material's acoustic neutrality ensures clear voice transmission and reception during field communications. The case relies on Aquapac's patented Aquaclip® seal—a rustproof, injection-molded polymer lever mechanism that seals airtight with a quick twist lock, remaining completely attached to the pouch to prevent lost components in remote field settings.

Key Benefits:

• Dedicated Extended Antenna Sleeve: Flexible enclosure mold accepts extended satellite antennas without bending or signal degradation.
• Certified IPX8 Submersible Rating: Provides continuous water exclusion down to a depth of 30 feet (10 meters) during severe weather or marine submersion.
• Signal Neutral & High Acoustic Clarity: Flexible TPU body permits uninhibited RF satellite signal transmission and clear voice audio through internal speakers and microphones.
• Tactile Keypad & Screen Operational Access: High-flex transparent panel provides full visibility and tactile button control for dialing and menu navigation in the field.
• Patented Aquaclip® Twist-Lock Seal: Non-corrosive, rustproof polymer sealing lever opens and locks quickly without separate zip tracks, snaps, or metal parts.
• Industrial UV & Saltwater Resistance: High-frequency welded TPU resists yellowing, chemical degradation, and embrittlement from prolonged UV exposure and saltwater spray.
• Inherent Flotation Capability: Enclosed volume traps sufficient air to float most standard satellite handsets, enabling rapid retrieval if dropped in open water.
