CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), where applicable, is the underlying
digital radio network technology used by many cellular providers across the globe
and is prevalent in North America. To provide backward compatibility and
seamless connections in a wider range of locations, your ICX30-HWC will fall
back to 1x when EV-DO is not available.
ICX30-HWC is certified with the prominent North American 1x and EV-DO
carriers.
5.1 EV-DO
EV-DO (Evolution Data Optimized) provides a broadband-like cellular data
connection that is 10 times faster than 1x/CDMA service. With the high-speed
connection, users can experience faster downloading when accessing the
Internet and retrieving e-mails, including large attachments and other bandwidth-
intensive applications. EV-DO is often referred to as Mobile Broadband and
Cellular Broadband.
EV-DO revision A is an enhancement on the original revision 0 adding expanded
upload capabilities and a more robust connection overall. In addition to
increasing the downlink speed, revision A also increases the uplink speed. In
addition, it is backwards compatible and automatically connects with existing and
broadly deployed EV-DO Rev. 0 and 1x networks ensuring reliable and pervasive
connectivity.
Note: Your ICX30-HWC does not have a second antenna for received diversity. Received diversity
is disabled by default.
5.2 1x
1x provides a digital cellular telephony system and can provide wireless Internet
access at speeds between 60 and 80 kbps, with bursts up to 144 kbps.
