AirCard® 597E ExpressCard - User Guide

8 2130822

Some features described in this manual may not be supported by your

service provider or may not be available with your network account.

For details of the services and accounts available, contact your service

provider.

Wireless ExpressCard

Once installed and configured, the AirCard ExpressCard can connect

to the CDMA network automatically. You just insert the AirCard

ExpressCard, allow Watcher to autolaunch and authenticate your

account on the network, then launch your Internet browser (which

you can also configure in Watcher to launch automatically)—you’re

online!

Alternatively, you can make a high-speed data connection without

running Watcher—simply by launching whatever application you

want to use (such as your web browser or e-mail application). Prereq-

uisites: you must have previously selected, in Watcher, “

Always-on”

for the high-speed connection and (subject to feature availability)

“

Enable NIC for data connections”.

The AirCard ExpressCard also allows you to dial up a modem (such as

a corporate server).

CDMA 3G services

The AirCard ExpressCard operates over a type of wireless network

called CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access).

CDMA 3G technology provides a variety of connectivity features,

depending on your service provider and account:

• 1x-EVDO Rev. A supports Internet connections with data rates up

to 3.1 Mbps (downlink from the network) and 1.8 Mbps (uplink to

the network). Average data rates are 450-800 Kbps (downlink

from the network) and 300-400 Kbps (uplink to the network).

Actual speed depends on the network conditions.

• 1x-EVDO Rev. 0 supports Internet connections with data rates up

to 2.4 Mbps (downlink from the network) and 153 Kbps (uplink to

the network). Average data rates are 400-700 Kbps (downlink

from the network) and 40-80 Kbps (uplink to the network).

Actual speed depends on the network conditions.

• 1X supports Internet connections with data rates up to 153 Kbps.

Actual speed depends on the network conditions.

Once the connection is established, you can open your browser and

connect to any web site that is accessible through the Internet, or

access other Internet services (such as e-mail).

The connection is “active” when data transmission is occurring. If data

transmission stops for a period of time (determined by the network),

the connection becomes “dormant”; see page 27.
