Data connections

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

Packet data (general packet radio service, GPRS)

GPRS 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 set

up 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.
Note that during a voice call, you cannot establish a GPRS connection, and an existing GPRS connection is put on hold.

High-speed data calls (high-speed circuit switched data, HSCSD)

HSCSD 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, please contact your network operator or service provider.
Note that sending data with HSCSD may drain the battery faster than normal voice or data calls, as the device may send data

more frequently to the network.

GSM data calls

A GSM data call enables data transmission rates of up to 14.4 kb/s. For availability and subscription to data services, contact your

network operator or service provider.
