Orange 3G Data Card Features
Fast 3G Data Speeds
The Orange 3g Mobile Office dual mode 3G/GPRS datacard can be used with almost any laptop to provide high-speed internet services and email access, letting you work wherever you are.
Simple & Easy to use
There's no need for a separate mobile phone and there's no complicated set-up process. Simply install the easy-to-use software and then slide the data card into your laptop. Orange's fast 3G datacard makes mobile working work.
Stay Connected
The Orange 3g Mobile Office Card takes advantage of Orange's 3G network, offering connection speeds that are up to seven times faster than a 56k modem dial-up connection. If you find yourself in an area without 3G coverage, it'll keep you connected by switching automatically to the well-established GPRS data service.
In both cases, you'll be able to:
- access internet-based email accounts
- browse any web page
- send and receive text messages
- chat using instant messages
- monitor your usage
Business Benefits
Using Orange's 3g Mobile Office datacard gives you self-contained internet and email access on your laptop, without the need for any specialised technical knowledge. Large email attachments can be downloaded quickly and easily, making mobile working a practical reality.
You can even stay connected whenever you want, because you'll only pay for the amount of data you send and receive. Quite simply, it means that you can work from out of the office without compromising. There's no searching for a telephone socket and there are no embarrassing snail-paced downloads.
If your business already provides staff with secure remote access to email and files on your computer network, it's likely that you can offer the same services using a Mobile Office datacard without needing any additional hardware or software.
Dual Band
The Orange 3g Mobile Office datacard is a dual mode, dual band card, which means as well as operating on 3G networks it can roam onto GSM900 and GSM1800 networks in over 130 countries world-wide
Coverage
Orange already have the most advanced and integrated 2.5/3G network in the UK. From launch Orange's 3G network will cover over 66% of the UK population, including major towns and cities in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Business-specific locations such as transport routes and hubs, business parks, conference centres and other business locations are a key focus. 3G coverage is widening rapidly, and Orange should cover over 80% of the population by the middle of next year.
When you move out of a 3G coverage area, you will handover to the Orange GPRS network which covers 99.3% of the UK population. No UK network provides greater 3G data coverage.
GPRS
GPRS is an "always on" Mobile Internet service that is typically 2 to 3 times faster than traditional GSM data. Effectively being online continuously, there is no delay due to dialling up to your service provider and GPRS technology means that you are only charged by the amount of data you transfer, not how long you are online for.
