See Circuit Switched Data (CSD).
Circuit Switched Data. A GSM transmission standard that allows data to be transferred at up to 14.4kbps.
Circuit Switched data. Data transmitted over a dedicated (although usually virtual) channel. The destination address is implicitly defined by the (virtual) circuit that is selected.
Circuit Switched Data A technology that enables the transmitting of data across a cellular network. See Also: HSCSD
CSD is the usual form of data transmission through circuit switching. Just as with audio transmission on land line based phones, charges are based on the time spent using it. Maximum transfer rates vary between 9.6kbps and 14.4kbps depending on the mobile phone handset and theservice provider in use. HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switched Data) is similar to CSD but with an enhanced maximum transfer rate of 43.2kbps.
Circuit Switched Data = GSM data/normal data call. In conventional GSM networks, data transmission speeds could reach a maximum 9.6. kbps. This was adequate in the early days when mobile phones were used primarily for voice calls. But the structure of the GSM network makes if possible to more effectively utilize the radio frequencies, which are divided into time slots.
Circuit Switched Data. Line Switched Data transfer in GSM standard. The opposite of Packet Switched Data.
Circuit Switched Data is what you use when you do a dial-up data or fax call from your phone. This is the alternative way of shifting data to GPRS. It has slower speeds and has higher cost generally than GPRS.
Circuit Switched Data (CSD) is a bearer that is available on GSM mobile networks that is slow and takes a while to connect, but is the principal bearer for working with the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) protocol, at least in the days before General Packet Radio Service ( GPRS).
Circuit Switched Data: is the traditional technology used for the exchange of data. A circuit connection is made that is exclusively reserved for the individual's use. Payment is then made in accordance with the duration of the connection. This can be inefficient, for example when connecting to the internet using WAP, as more time is spent reading the information than is spent exchanging data, however you continue to pay when you are reading. For corporate e-mail services however, applications have been developed where the user works “off line” and then only connects to the server to download and receive e-mails.
Circuit Switched Data (CSD) is one of the earlier technologies used to transfer data via a GSM network to a mobile phone. Cost of usage depends on the length of time connected.
Circuit switch data (for example, ISDN data call).
Circuit Switched Data - A data bearer for GSM networks. CSD requires a dedicated connection and is limited to a data rate of 9.6 kbps.
Circuit Switched Data. CSD is the original form of data transmission developed for GSM networks. CSD used a single radio time slot to deliver 9.6Kbps data transmission to the GSM network, allowing direct calls to any dial up service.
Information that is transmitted through a system or network by establishing a persistent and dedicated connection ('circuit').
Circuit Switch Data. Allows a user to use their wireless handset as a modem for laptops, PDAs and other electronic devices via infrared ports or designated data cables. CSD also allows a user to access Wireless Internet via their wireless handset (handset must be WAP compatible).
Circuit Switched Data. A type of telephone connection intended to carry data between two digital devices, such as ISDN digital data adapters and video conferencing systems. ISDN lines have to be provisioned correctly if they need to carry CSD connections.
