WAP ON GPRS: AN ALCATEL WORLDWIDE PREMIERE - SURF THE MOBILE NET, HERE & NOW

Alcatel is a front runner in GPRS and was the first vendor to launch WAP commercial services and handsets. Today, Alcatel is the first to implement WAP on GPRS. The Alcatel GPRS solution is being demonstrated on the Alcatel stand with the spotlight on mobile data. A full scale GPRS platform - including radio infrastructure (EVOLIUM™ BSS) and the Alcatel 1000 GPRS core network (SGSN and GGSN) - is for the first time ever using the full dynamic allocation of GPRS channels on the air interface. It provides access to Alcatel HomeTop™ solutions thanks to GPRS terminals integrating a WAP browser.

Alcatel demonstrates that WAP also runs on GPRS and the "ALWAYS ON" service is a key advantage of GPRS.

GPRS is THE technology for mobile hi-speed Internet. What makes Alcatel GPRS Solution unique is that the Group leveraged all its expertise in telecom and the Internet to offer operators a total solution, which means operators can start generating new revenues Here & Now.
