Compass 597 USB modem - User Guide
12
•
1X supports Internet connections with data rates up to
153 Kbps. Actual speed depends on the network condi‐
tions.
Once the connection is established, you can open your browser
and connect to any web site that is accessible through the
Internet, or access other Internet services (such as e‐mail).
The connection is "active" when data transmission is
occurring. If data transmission stops for a period of time
(determined by the network), the connection becomes
dormant.
•
Circuit switched (dial‐up) data, using the earlier CDMA
IS‐95 specification, supports data connections to any dial‐
in service at rates up to 14.4 Kbps.
•
QNC (Quick Net Connect) provides a simplified way to
dial into an Internet connection (using circuit switched
data) where 3G (1xEV‐DO or 1X) high‐speed packet
service is not available.
•
SMS
(Short Message Service) allows you to send and
receive short text messages using the modem (Windows
only).
