Remote access, anytime, anywhere**

Vodafone Mobile Connect allows you remote access to email, business applications and the Internet anytime, anywhere*, using Vodafone's 3G network.

Vodafone's data cards give you easy access to essential data, wirelessly and cost–effectively. There's no need for a separate mobile phone and no complicated set–up process. Simply install the easy–to–use Vodafone dashboard software and then insert the data card.



Vodafone's fast 3G data card makes mobile working work so you can:

  • Choose the fastest available network and simply click the Connect button for an instant connection
  • Create a secure connection to your company network by clicking the VPN button to start your usual VPN software.
  • Access the features you need with on click (e.g. email, your company intranet, instant messaging and the internet).
  • Read, send and receive SMS or instant messages from your laptop.
  • Monitor usage and costs at a glance and check data transfers during a given period on 3G or GPRS to stay within monthly data thresholds.

** subject to 3G & GPRS coverage and availability

 

What is 3G?

The Vodafone mobile connect 3G/GPRS data card will connect to Vodafone's 3G network wherever there's coverage. On the occasions that you find yourself in an area without 3G coverage, it'll switch automatically to the well–established GPRS network.

3G can deliver data speeds that are up to seven times faster than using a GPRS data card or a 56k PSTN modem dial–up connection.

Vodafone's 3G services are based on UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) technology, which is being used by mobile phone networks around the world, so connectivity remains with you when you travel abroad.

Tarriff Information

PAYU (Pay as you Use) has no monthly line rental, no minimum spend, no need to top up or pay in advance, just pay for what you use (£2/MB ex. VAT) at the end of the month. Vodafone will even give you 10MB (worth £20) free to get you started. PAYU is ideal for occasional users or as a starter tariff. If you find yourself using the card more often you could be better off on an inclusive MB bundle. If you select PAYU, you can “swap” your first month’s usage for any Mobile Connect inclusive bundle tariff and only pay the bundle cost.

To help you to calculate your user requirements, the following figures are an approximate guide to data size. One MB can be equal to:

  • 500 - 1,000 average length text only emails
  • 10 large Word documents
  • One 20 slide PowerPoint file with basic graphics
*When paid by direct debit connected to any Vodafone mobile connect contract tariff including Pay As You Use (see PAYU above)
