USB Adapter for Cardbus Wireless Modem 3G Cards : U132
The U132 is a USB adapter for Cardbus (32-bit) 3G wireless cards. Ideal for connecting desktops, laptops without PC card slots, and bespoke systems (such as point of sale) to the internet where-ever you are!
Please note that the unique hardware design of the U132 has been developed especially for this type of wireless modems, so other card types are not supported. The U132 does not support memory cards. Check our Frequently Asked Questions for more information.
Supported Cards
Most 32-bit (CardBus) 3G cards (for 3G technologies such as CDMA, UMTS, HSDPA, EDGE) are supported. 32-bit cards can be distinguished by a gold stripe on the end that is inserted into the PC card slot.
Check the supported card list for more information, or contact your local stockist for advice about the cards offered by your operators in your area. (Note : Our new model, the U142 supports the new GT Max models from Option Wireless)
