Ericsson GC-25

Ericsson GC-25 is a module produced as a PCMCIA. It is a bit slower than Siemens M20T; thanks to not so good support of PCMCIA card on Windows NT 4.0 we don't recommend it's usage on any servers -- can make the system unstable. The quality of signal and receiving is regarding to it's small antenna - which cannot be moved - often problematic.
