Option selects Qualcomm chipset for connectivity wireless solutions for
WCDMA markets
October 20, 2003
Qualcomm and Option, a wireless technology company, announced the selection
of Qualcomm's MSM6200 Mobile Station Modem (MSM) chipset and system software
for Option's dual-mode, 3G wireless PC-Radio Cards. Integrating Qualcomm's
MSM6200 chipset, which supports WCDMA (UMTS), GSM and GPRS technologies,
with Option's multimode, multiband wireless PC-Radio Cards will provide
the WCDMA market with a high-quality, high-speed wireless connectivity
solution.
"Option recognizes the value of building upon proven technology when
developing devices that lead the WCDMA world," said Jan Callewaert, president
and CEO of Option NV. "Qualcomm's chipset is highly suited to serve the
growing WCDMA market. By integrating Qualcomm's chipset into our PC-Radio
Cards, we will be able to offer our customers sophisticated data applications
that will operate on all GSM, GPRS and WCDMA networks in Europe and Asia."
"Qualcomm's MSM6200 chipset and system software is a proven commercial
solution that will enable Option to deliver compelling WCDMA products,"
said Dr. Sanjay K. Jha, president of Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. "Option's
dedication to develop and commercialize easy-to-use, in-demand wireless
PC-Radio Card solutions for the 3G market exemplifies the company's leadership
in the high-speed data industry. We are very pleased to work with Option
as an important partner for 3G in Europe and around the world."
Option will bring 3G high-speed data solutions to wireless carriers who
will promote to their customers secure access to critical business and
personal productivity applications, such as e-mail and corporate databases
as well as instantaneous intranet and Internet connectivity at high speeds.
Currently powering commercially deployed handsets in Japan, the MSM6200
chipset is Qualcomm's second generation WCDMA solution and supports data
rates of up to 384 kbps in WCDMA mode. Like all members of the MSM6xxx
family, the MSM6200 solution incorporates Qualcomm's radioOne Zero Intermediate
Frequency (ZIF) architecture, which eliminates the need for Intermediate
Frequency (IF) components, including large IF saw filters and additional
IF circuitry. With radioOne technology, the MSM6200 solution requires
less printed circuit board area than previous generation chipsets and
reduces bill-of-material costs for wireless dual-mode products.
The MSM6200 solution also supports Qualcomm's Launchpad suite of advanced
multimedia, connectivity, position location, user interface and removable
storage functionality, as well as Qualcomm's BREW system. Qualcomm's BREW
system provides products and services that connect the mobile marketplace
value chain, which includes application developers, publishers, content
providers, device manufacturers, operators and consumers. This chipset
is also compatible with the Java runtime environment; the J2ME solution
can be built entirely on the chipset's BREW software layer.
