Sat Phone
A sat phone bypasses major carriers and receives its signal directly from orbiting satellites. The advantages of this are that a character can use such a phone in extreme locations (mountaintops, distant forests, deserts). Plus, these phones feature little of the interference that normal cell/digital phones receive. Most sat phones are a little bigger than the average cell phone, and are also ruggedized in hard rubber to take a beating. Sat phones do not use satellite service when indoors, as they require usage under a clear sky. Indoors, they default to cellular coverage.
Sat phones are used frequently by government employees (anbody from FBI agents to senators) as well as high-end construction contractors (who might not be able to receive normal signal when working atop a skyscraper or some other piece of distant architecture.
