Gemplus' USIM powers launch of Hutchison 3G Austria's 3G network
September 15, 2003
Gemplus International, a provider of smart card solutions, announces
its selection by Hutchison 3G Austria ("3"), the first purely mobile multimedia
provider on the Austrian market, to deliver USIM card technology to support
the operator's 3G launch.
With two mobile operators committing to 3G in less than one year, Austria
is only European country with two 3G operational networks.
"Gemplus was the obvious choice for the supply of our 3G USIM cards because
of its international outreach and significant experience in an emerging
field, not least within other global markets of 3," said Berthold Thoma,
CEO Hutchison 3G Austria.
Gemplus' USIM technology, GemXplore 3G, enables fast and easy download
of advanced data applications with increased data speeds of up to 384
kbps. End-users benefit from a flexible platform for data services, such
as for EMV, loyalty, CDMA, and GSM, all within an enhanced secure environment.
"The Austrian market is proving once again that it is ahead of the game
when it comes to advances in technology. It is the only European country
to have two 3G networks and Gemplus is delighted to be involved in both,"
said Philippe Vallee, Executive Vice President Telecom Business Unit,
Gemplus.
Besides supplying USIM cards, Gemplus has also been to deliver the software
development tool, GemXplore CASE for 3G. This tool belongs to the most
advanced range of software products for the development and deployment
of mobile services for 3G mobile networks.
