GPRS

If you’re looking for a cost effective and efficient mobile data solution, GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is the answer.

Why use GPRS?

• It keeps you connected at all times. Once you’ve logged on, GPRS keeps you connected to your company network all day, subject to coverage. No need to keep dialing up.
• It’s fast, reliable and secure. GPRS offers data transmission speeds that are up to four times faster than conventional GSM.
• It’s cost effective. You pay only for the data you send – not the length of time that you’re connected.
• No need to retrain your employees. They’ll be able to use our GPRS connection quickly and easily, as it employs the same kind of look and feel that they’re already used to on other desktop applications.

How do I get started?

First, you’ll need GPRS compatible mobile phones, Xdas and Data Cards/USB Modems for use with a laptop. You can then choose from the following two options:

• GPRS DataLink is a fully managed leased line service for data only. Choose from four different options based on your data capacity requirements, and get added protection against component failure with our optional Resilient DataLink.
