Yes, satellite phones generally require a SIM card.
Similar to traditional cell phones, satellite phones use SIM cards to identify the user and their account.
The SIM card stores your account information, allowing you to make calls, send messages, and use data services.
However, satellite phone SIM cards differ from regular SIM cards in several ways:
* They operate on different networks and frequencies.
* They often have different data plans and usage fees.
* They may have limited functionality compared to regular SIM cards.When you purchase a satellite phone, you usually need to obtain a SIM card from the same provider. These cards are typically pre-activated and ready to use.
Some satellite phone manufacturers offer compatible SIM cards from different providers, giving users more flexibility in choosing data plans and services.
