The U series USB to PCMCIA (PC) Card Adapters/Readers are  new models developed in response to overwhelming customer demand. Plans are to add support for more models of 3G datacard during 2007. 

Take your 3G wireless internet access anywhere using the U series PCMCIA (PC) Card Readers. The USB Card Adapter/Reader allows the use of a wide number of high speed datacards via a USB port enabling these PC cards to be used with a desktop or laptop without a PCMCIA CardBus slot.

The U series is ideal for customers who live in an area without high speed wired internet access, or whose laptop does not offer a PCMCIA/CardBus slot, such as the new Dell latitude X1 models. The adapter/reader is compatible with desktops, notebooks or specialist systems (such as Point of Sale machines).

Most CardBus wireless modem cards are compatible with the U series; check the list below to find out whether yours is included or contact us for advice.

Please note that the unique hardware design of the U111/U142 has been developed especially for this type of wireless modems, so other card types are not supported. The U111/U142 does not support memory cards.

To identify which USB reader model you need you will need to know the manufacturer and their model name for your card. 

Operators often offer more than one model, and also discontinue old models and start shipping new ones, so this list is not exhaustive. Some operators also use the same product name to cover more than one card model. However, if you already have your 3G card you should be able to work out which USB adapter you need to support it from here. (The manufacturer's name and model number is usually on a label on the back of the card.)

Option Wireless make a large number of different models, and the best way to be sure which model you have is to check the letter at the start of the serial number (on the back of the card).

Note that if Wireless LAN is integrated into your card, this will not work via a USB adapter.

Driver support for Windows XP 2000, 2003 Server and PowerPC using Mac OS, X 10.2.8 or new versions, Intel Macintosh using Mac OS X 10.4.0 or new versions.
Vista 32 bit only.

*Notes

  1. Note on Option Models - There are many different Option card models, and operators do not always refer to the Option Wireless model name. The most reliable way to differentiate between them is using the two letters at the start of the serial number.
  2. Verizon PC5740 or KPC650 card + U132 combinations support a manual connection, but the Verizon VZAccess software does not recognise the card. We are working with Verizon to add this function.
  3. The PC5740, PC5220 and PX500 cards may be labelled with 'Audiovox' or 'UTStar'. If you are going to be using one of these cards, please download the latest drivers. (Download this file, and replace the previous version in your C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS directory.)
