What is the Mobile Connection Manager?

The Mobile Connection Manager is a user-friendly application designed to assist you in managing the PC5220. With this application you can easily monitor and customize your connections.

The Mobile Connection Manager software guides you through the wireless connection process. Similar to a mobile phone display, the user interface of the Mobile Connection Manager instructs you when to insert the PC5220 into your laptop, advises you on network availability, displays the time of your session and amount of data being transferred and received, and when your connection becomes dormant. Other features allow you to customize your settings, review your connection history, and access a digital help file.

Caring for your PC5220

Storage:

1.When not in use, fold the antenna down and store in a compartment where the card can be protected from being crushed or broken.

2.Do not apply adhesive labels to the PC5220. This may cause the card to jam inside the PC Card slot of your laptop PC.

3.The antenna extends freely, do not forcefully hyper-extend the antenna. This may cause it to break.

4.The PC5220 should easily fit into the PC Card slot. Forcing the PC5220 into the PC Card slot may cause considerable damage.

5.Your PC5220 should be stored in a dry and clean place (Storage temperature: - 30° to 65°C). Protect your card from liquids, dust and excessive heat.

What is 3G CDMA?

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a digital wireless technology and cellular telephone standard developed by QUALCOMM®. 3G (third generation) is a development of CDMA that delivers very high speed connections, thus enabling video conference and other applications requiring broadband connectivity to the Internet.

CDMA2000

CDMA2000 is a family of 3G technologies recognized by the International Telecom Union (ITU) that evolve from current cdmaOne implementations. The CDMA2000 family includes 1xRTT and 1xEV-DO. CDMA2000 1xEV-DV will be added to this family shortly.

CDMA2000 1xRTT

CDMA2000 1x technology that supports both voice and data services over a standard (1x) CDMA channel, and provides many performance advantages over other technologies. First, it provides up to twice the capacity of earlier CDMA systems (with even bigger gains over TDMA and GSM). Second, it provides peak data rates of up to 153 kbps (and up to 307 kbps in the future), without sacrificing voice capacity for data capabilities. Monet is initially deploying its network using 1xRTT.

CDMA2000 1xEV-DO

For those who want higher-speed or higher capacity data services, a data-optimized version of CDMA2000 called 1xEV-DO provides peak rates of over 2 Mbps, with an average throughput of over 700 kbps - comparable to wireline DSL services and fast enough to support even demanding applications such as streaming video and large file downloads. 1xEV-DO devices will provide "always-on" packet data connections. Monet introduced Monet Broadband, the nations first commercial launch of 1xEV-DO service in fall of 2002.
