Spanish operator Telefonica and Novatel Wireless have announced the launch of the Ovation MC996D High-Speed USB Data Modem, an HSPA+ mobile broadband device.
HSPA+ is the next evolution of high-speed packet access (HSPA) wireless broadband technology with greater capacity for data throughput compared to standard 3G networks. With peak data speeds of up to 21.6 Mbps on the downlink and 5.76 Mbps on the uplink, the MC996D delivers speeds of up to three times those of current HSPA mobile broadband devices.
The MC996D supports the 900 and 2100 MHz frequency bands and is designed to provide connectivity virtually anywhere in the world.
