High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD)

The Nokia D211 enables you to use GSM high-speed data services (HSCSD). The

standard GSM data transmission rate is 9.6 kbit/s, but HSCSD technology allows

for higher data transmission rates, making, for example, the downloading of large

files faster and more convenient.
HSCSD technology is based on the use of multiple timeslots at the same time.

Depending on the network, the data transmission speed in a single timeslot is 9.6

or 14.4 kbit/s. When sending and receiving e-mail, the 14.4 kbit/s data

transmission speed can be doubled up to 28.8 kbit/s, and in Internet connections

a download speed of up to 43.2 kbit/s can be achieved if supported by the

equipment of the network operator and the Internet service provider.
The use of GSM high-speed data services requires that your network supports

HSCSD technology and that you have subscribed to this service. For more

information, contact your service provider or network operator.
