HC25 - Cinterion Wireless Module

The HC25 supports both Quad-Band GSM/GPRS/EDGE and Tri-Band UMTS/HSDPA functionality, enabling the module to cover all the frequencies used worldwide. As a result, applications based on the HC25 can be deployed anywhere in the world. In addition, the module is already approved according to all worldwide standards and certifications: R&TTE, GCF, CE, FCC, PTCRB, UL, IC as well as local approvals and network operator certifications. This enables manufacturers to create new HSDPA devices which fulfill both local and global GSM and UMTS requirements.

The provided driver ensures optimal linkage between the communication module and a Microsoft? Windows XP or Microsoft? Windows Mobile? system. This software driver is dedicated to the Microsoft? operating system which allows plug-and-play functionality with Microsoft? Windows? XP (NDIS) and easy integration with devices based on Microsoft? Windows? Mobile (RIL/NDIS). Together with the USB 2.0 full-speed interface, the software driver makes the HC25 the perfect choice, especially for PDAs, entertainment devices, industrial handhelds and USB modems.

To be able to develop enhanced communication solutions, the HC25 comes with full voice and data support. This allows the HC25 to use different voice modes ― handset, headset and handsfree mode ― and to use voice and data at the same time. Our support services additionally ensure optimization of the voice functionality of an application in particular, thus guaranteeing that you are using the latest wireless technologies, in a flexible way and of the highest possible quality.

Like all Siemens wireless modules, the HC25 is lead-free, thus complying with the EU Directive on the Restriction of Specific Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS).
