Compact and very fast, the iCON 225 is an affordable HSDPA USB modem delivering single-band 3G download data speeds of up to 7.2Mbps. By incorporating quad-band 2G, as well as 2100 MHz 3G data connectivity, the iCON 225 is a convenient data roaming solution – allowing online access virtually anywhere in the world.

The iCON 225 is user-friendly too. Its small form factor (just 63 x 26 x 13 mm and weighing only 27g) means it’s easy to take with you wherever you go. Thanks to Zero-CD® technology, you don’t need an installation CD and bulky instruction manual. Everything you need is installed automatically when you connect the device to your computer for the first time. The device’s status is shown by an easy-to-see LED display, while the sturdy cap incorporates an attachment point for the supplied lanyard.
