UTSTARCOMUTStarcom announced the exclusive U.S. distribution of the PC5750 Mobile Broadband Connection Card, “the fastest and largest-memory-capacity PCMICIA card the company offers”, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas last week.

“The PC5750 is a dual-band (800/1900 MHz) CDMA2000 1xEV-DO wireless Type II PC card that is designed to allow on-the-go laptop users to make secure wireless connections through their wireless carriers. Outfitted with high-speed EV-DO Revision A technology, the PC5750 is compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Mobile computer users now can use Internet at speeds of up to 3.1 Mbps – 30 percent faster than previously capable. The PC5750 also has a memory capacity of 64 MB Flash / 32 MB RAM that is eight times greater than that of earlier UTStarcom mobile connectivity cards”, the company says.

In addition to the high-speed advantages offered by the PC5750, the card employs a CDMA wireless technology authentication and identification security system.

There is no information on pricing and availability dates.
