This UICC will be used inside mobile devices (initially USB modems for 4G mobile broadband) to manage subscriber information exchange, such as transferring contacts and preferences from one device to another, while at the same time providing secure access to the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network. Gemalto’s OTA LTE platform, an industry first, will help the wireless leader manage LTE devices on its 4G LTE network, allowing for high-speed, low-latency, personalized services. The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network, launched in December 2010, is the fastest, most advanced 4G network in the United States, providing speeds up to 10 times faster than Verizon Wireless’ 3G network. Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network currently reaches one-third of all Americans, with plans to expand the network to the company’s entire 3G coverage area over the next three years. www.verizonwireless.com www.gemalto.com
