Welcome to the AirCard® 510 PCS Modem
The AirCard 510 PCS modem is the first wireless CDMA (Code Division
Multiple Access) modem . It works in any laptop or handheld computer
running Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, or CE that has a Type II PC card slot.
This modem offers high speed data transmission (14.4 Kbps) and all the
benefits of CDMA technology, including:
● coverage that is wide-spread and growing. CDMA currently
encompasses most of North America, Asia, and Australia and is
spreading throughout other parts of the world.
● continuous power control on the CDMA network means longer battery
life for your laptop.
● CDMA uses "soft handoffs" between cells in the cellular network,
providing a robust air link and reliable service.
● CDMA transmission is, by nature, extremely secure. Individual
transmissions are indiscernable to anyone tapping into a radio
frequency channel.

Important Notice
Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and
reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted
(i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of
data are rare when wireless devices such as the AirCard 510 PCS CDMA
modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, they
should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data
could result in harm of any kind to the user or any other party, including but
not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless, Inc.,
accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or
errors in data transmitted or received using the AirCard 510 PCS CDMA
modem, or for failure of the AirCard 510 PCS modem to transmit or receive
such data.
Safety and Hazards
Do not operate the AirCard modem in areas where blasting is in progress,
where explosive atmospheres may be present, near medical equipment, near
life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any
form of radio interference. In such areas, the AirCard 510 PCS PC Card
MUST BE TURNED OFF. It can transmit signals that could interfere with
this equipment.
Do not operate the AirCard PC Card in any aircraft, whether the aircraft is on
the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the AirCard modem MUST BE TURNED
OFF. When operating, it can transmit signals that could interfere with various
onboard systems.
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the AirCard modem
while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or
operator's control and operation of that vehicle. In some jurisdictions,
operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an
offence.
