VODAFONE: Vodafone launches Packet Radio Broadcast Service
SEP 9, 1999, M2 Communications - Vodafone has announced the launch of
its Packet Radio Broadcast Service, an innovative new service which
enables simultaneous data broadcast to terminals throughout the UK.
The service uses the Vodafone Packet Radio Service, the world's most
successful radio data network, to deliver data broadcast messages to
Radio-Pads in a defined 'Broadcast Group'. The Packet Radio Broadcast
Service is ideal for applications requiring the dissemination of short
bursts of data transaction traffic to a large number of terminals which
may be widely distributed geographically. Information kiosks, gaming
terminals and variable message signs are applications which will
benefit from this new service which currently covers over 95% of the UK
population.
Once the subscription service has been enabled and the appropriate
broadcast groups have been programmed, the service is very easy to use
with no operator assistance. The data message to be broadcast is simply
deposited on the broadcast server using a Radio-Pad or host connection.
Messages are restricted to less than 10KBytes although larger messages
may be accommodated by prior agreement. The message is broadcast in
128Byte blocks to each base station defined in the broadcast group. A
100Byte message broadcast to many thousands of Radio-Pads throughout
the UK would cost around GBP1.20.
"The Packet Radio Broadcast Service is the first such service in the
UK and reinforces Vodafone's commitment to the introduction of
innovative new services which add real value and efficiencies to
corporate operations," commented Tony Riley, Sales and Marketing
Director, Vodafone Value Added and Data Services.
Over 75,000 Radio-Pads are currently connected to the Vodafone Packet
Radio Service across a wide range of fixed and mobile applications.
