the 27 Member States of
the EU
HSUPA commercial

HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access) complements HSDPA and provides benefits to
the mobile network operator further capacity increases, enhanced throughput and coverage,
and significantly reduces latency on the uplink
HSUPA offers data speeds up to 5.8 Mbps (peak) on the uplink channel. Together with
HSDPA, it means a huge stride in network performance
For most operators, flat rate is the main approach to educate and encourage users
to increase mobile data usage significantly
Often a monthly limit is applied
Simple and easy to understand
One-third of global
mobile data revenues
now come from non-
SMS services
