Novatel Wireless and Lucent join force for 3G UMTS wireless modem cards
August 19, 2003
Novatel Wireless and Lucent Technologies announced that they have completed
amendments to their joint development and supply agreements for the Merlin
U530 3G UMTS wireless PC card modem. The Merlin U530 is a high-speed data
device designed to enable mobile users to access the Internet and corporate
intranets over mobile networks based on 3G UMTS technology.
Under the agreements, the two companies will collaborate on the continued
development and commercial release of the Merlin U530 to mobile operators
throughout Europe and Asia. Deliveries of the Merlin U530 to Lucent are
scheduled to commence during the fourth quarter of 2003. Novatel Wireless
will be one of Lucent's key suppliers of the products and could receive
orders valued at as much as $50 million over an 18-month period depending
on customer demand.
The dual-mode (GPRS/UMTS), tri-band (900/1800/2100) Merlin U530 is among
the first WAN PC card modems in the market capable of handling wireless
data transmissions up to 384 kbps in a mobile environment on a UMTS network.
The Merlin U530 was jointly developed by Lucent and Novatel Wireless under
an agreement announced in August 2002, and is offered to mobile service
providers in conjunction with Lucent's 3G UMTS mobile high-speed data
solutions portfolio.
"The cards from Novatel Wireless combined with Lucent's end-to- end UMTS
high-speed data solutions will enable mobile operators to provide their
enterprise customers with secure 3G high-speed data services that can
increase productivity, reduce costs and improve customer satisfaction,"
said Roger Derrien, vice president for UMTS product development with Lucent's
Mobility Solutions Group.
Inserted into a laptop computer, the Merlin U530 can provide mobile professionals
with wireless access to e-mail, Intranets and corporate databases via
3G UMTS networks with the same level of security and usability that they
experience in their office. At speeds up to 384 kbps, the Merlin U530
seamlessly transmits data intensive files such as photos, PowerPoint presentations,
AutoCAD files, and streaming audio and video.
