Wireless operators are now beginning to fill their networks with the next billion mobile connections. These include data-centric devices such USB dongles and computers as well as the immensely promising machine-to-machine (M2M) market. Wireless data is the next growth area and forward-thinking operators, OEMs and even those outside the traditional wireless industry are exploring it. Qualcomm’s many years of wireless expertise and chipset development make MDM (Mobile Data Modem) chipsets – designed exclusively to support data-centric devices – the premier choice.
