3G Turbo Gets Test Run for T-Mobile Netherlands

Europe : After having demonstrated High-Speed Download Packet Access (HSDPA) to corporate customers in August this year, T-Mobile Netherlands this week became the first Dutch provider to have established a HSDPA connection on a live network.

Employees from Planning and Engineering established a live mobile broadband connection in The Hague on the HSDPA network of T-Mobile and downloaded several ten-megabyte video files. They used the Option GT 3G+ laptop card and achieved an average downlink speed of 1.3 megabits per second (Mbps), with peak rates of 1.6 Mbps. A portion of the 3G network of T-Mobile Netherlands is already up and running as build-up continues. In The Hague, part of the UMTS network has already been upgraded to support HSDPA. Soon a limited number of external users such as T-Mobile business customers will be able to access the network. The commercial HSDPA launch is set for next year.
