Siemens Automation and Drives (Wireless Modules) presented its new HC25 wireless module for the first time at ITU Telecom World 2006 in Hong Kong in December. This wireless module, which can be used all over the world thanks to its tri-band UMTS and quadband GSM functionality, is based on the 3,6 Mbps HSDPA (high speed downlink packet access) data transmission technology.
It is suitable for data-intensive and voice-oriented applications and can be used for PDAs, industrial mobile handhelds and multimedia consoles, as well as USB routers and gateways.
With quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE and triband UMTS/HSDPA, the wireless module covers all mobile radio frequencies and is thus suitable for applications anywhere in the world. The module complies with all the certification requirements of the GSM and UMTS standards such as R&TTE, GCF, CE, FCC, PTCRB, UL and IC. It has also been tested and certified in accordance with the requirements of local network operators.
For fast and efficient development of applications, the HC25 has RIL/NDIS/USB drivers, robust interfaces and a sophisticated mounting solution. With the drivers provided, applications based on MS Windows XP and Mobile can be created. For example, the NDIS/USB driver enables plug-and-play functionality with Windows XP, and the RIL/NDIS/USB driver allows simple integration of the module in devices based on Windows Mobile 5.0. Communication between the module and the operating system takes place via the USB 2.0 full-speed interface.
