Cingular selects PCTEL's roaming client for HSDPA

March 15, 2006

PCTEL announced that Cingular has deployed PCTEL's Roaming Client software as a component of the new Cingular BroadbandConnect service.

Cingular is utilizing a custom version of PCTEL's Roaming Client as the platform for its Cingular Communication Manager. BroadbandConnect combines Communications Manager, a LaptopConnect card and a Data Connect plan for use on laptops via Cingular's 3G HSDPA network, which provides average mobile data connections between 400-700Kbps (kilobits per second). PCTEL currently supplies an EDGE version of its Roaming Client to Cingular.

"We continue to enhance the capabilities of our Roaming Client system," said Biju Nair, PCTEL's Vice President and General Manager of its Mobility Solutions Group. "It is exciting to provide our products to Cingular as they show leadership in establishing nationwide, high-speed, wireless Internet access," added Nair.

Cingular's Communication Manager supports Wi-Fi as well as mobile technologies, such as GPRS/EDGE/UMTS and now HSDPA, thereby offering a unique and branded Cingular experience for all Cingular subscribers. The software is also powered by PCTEL's Central Configuration Server for policy and update management of software on customer devices.

PCTEL's Roaming Client offers a comprehensive client application that manages access to dialup, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and 3G mobile networks. For end-users, a single process for connecting to any available network eliminates complexity and ensures that the best possible connectivity options are made available to end users wherever they are. PCTEL currently supplies its Roaming Client products to Cingular, AT&T, NTT DoCoMo, NTT Communications, GoRemote and others.
