Notruf

The European emergency number 112, also known as Euronotruf, is valid in all EU countries, as well as in many neighboring countries and all Alpine countries (Switzerland). In the USA and Canada, 112 is redirected to the local 911 emergency number.

Even at a time when smartphones and Wi-Fi seem to be ubiquitous, there are still plenty of areas where contact with the rest of the world is severely limited. There, a satellite phone is not only useful in an emergency.
