Data connections

This device supports packet data (GPRS), high-speed data calls (HSCSD), and GSM data calls.

Packet data

GPRS (general packet radio service) enables wireless access for mobile phones to data networks (network service). GPRS uses

packet data technology where information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile network. The benefit of sending data

in packets is that the network is occupied only when sending or receiving data. As GPRS uses the network efficiently, it allows

for quick data connection setup and fast data transmission speeds.
You must subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to GPRS, contact your network operator or service

provider.
Enhanced GPRS (EGPRS) is similar to GPRS, but it enables faster connection. For more information on the availability of EGPRS

and data transfer speed, contact your network operator or service provider. Note that when you have selected GPRS as a data

bearer, the device uses EGPRS instead of GPRS if this is available in the network.
During a voice call, you cannot establish a GPRS connection, and any existing GPRS connection is put on hold unless the network

supports dual transfer mode.

High-speed data calls

HSCSD (high-speed circuit switched data) enables data transmission rates up to 43.2 kb/s, which is four times faster than standard

data rates of the GSM network. HSCSD is comparable to the speed of many computer modems that communicate with fixed

telephone networks.
For availability and subscription to high-speed data services, contact your network operator or service provider.
