Broadband Benefits for Device Manufacturers

In brief/In detail

The demand for broadband services is growing and you need to be ready. The availability of new devices with built-in connectivity is increasing. This includes personal health-monitoring systems, gaming consoles and even cars. The processing power and memory in devices are also increasing, enabling them to be used in a myriad of new ways.

At the same time, mobile-broadband technologies are evolving, with HSPA and LTE forging the way. Today, there are about 200 HSPA networks in more than 85 countries around the world. This builds on existing coverage, reaching people everywhere with many networks and devices. By 2013, there will be nearly 2.2 billion mobile-broadband subscriptions, with the majority of subscribers using HSPA/LTE. 

We are working with top PC brands to make HSPA the de facto mobile-broadband technology for consumer electronic devices beyond phones.

With the strong HSPA ecosystem already in place and LTE becoming the natural migration choice for most mobile operators, you need to act now. Build on our extensive mobile-platform experience and embed mobile-broadband modules in your devices whether gaming consoles, cameras, cars, navigational devices or music players and reading pads.
