General information Data connections GSM data calls A GSM data call enables data transmission rates of up to 14.4 Kbps. For availability and subscription to data services, contact your network operator or service provider. High-speed data calls (High Speed Circuit Switched Data, HSCSD) HSCSD enables data transmission rates of up to 43.2 Kbps, 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: Sending data in HSCSD mode may drain the device's battery faster than normal voice or data calls, as the device may send data more frequently to the network. 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 need to subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to GPRS, contact your network operator or service provider. (E)GPRS (Enhanced GPRS) is similar to GPRS but the enables faster connection. For more information on the availability of (E)GPRS and data transfer speed, contact your network operator or service provider. Note that when you have selected GPRS as a data bearer, the smartphone uses (E)GPRS instead of GPRS if this is available on the network. Pricing for GPRS and applications Any data transfers via GPRS and (E)GPRS are subject to applicable operator data transfer fees. For more information on fees, contact your network operator or service provider. Access points A data connection connects your smartphone to the Internet via an access point. Your smartphone supports three kinds of data connections: • GSM data call ( ) • GSM high-speed data call, or HSCSD ( ) 29 Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
