Telefónica Móviles España and Novatel Wireless Inc. have announced the launch of the Ovation MC950D USB modem, a HSUPA mobile broadband device that carries the distinction of being the world's smallest HSUPA USB modem. The MC950D delivers unprecedented performance with upload and downlink speeds that meet or exceed traditional home DSL and cable modems.

Optimized for HSPA worldwide networks, the Ovation MC950D is a tri-band HSPA and quad band EDGE/GPRS modem designed to be extremely durable and fit comfortably in any pocket. For use in the home, at the office, or on the road, the MC950D will provide Telefónica customers with instant on-the-go mobile broadband access to surf the net, check e-mail, access important business documents and much more.

With support for 7.2 Mbps downlink speeds and 2.1 Mbps uplink upon launch, the MC950D offers faster speeds than legacy mobile data modems. These speed increases allow Telefónica’s wireless business customers to share large data files and leverage new wireless data applications on the go.

The Ovation MC950D packs an impressive assortment of features into its miniature form factor, including fully integrated diversity antennae, receiver diversity and equalizer support to improve performance in noisy and highly mobile environments. Escritorio Movistar Software from Telefónica is pre-installed on the device, significantly improving the user's out-of-box experience by eliminating the need to install drivers from a CD.

The Ovation MC950D will be commercially available in September through a variety of Telefónica’s direct and business sales channels.
