Welcome
Congratulations on purchasing the Verizon Wireless V740 ExpressCard for BroadbandAccess Rev. A and
NationalAccess service!
Before installing the V740 ExpressCard and the VZAccess Manager software and drivers, review this manual which
outlines the features of the V740 ExpressCard hardware.
Important: Do not plug the V740 ExpressCard into the ExpressCard slot until you have installed VZAccess
Manager and have activated BroadbandAccess/NationalAccess service for your V740 ExpressCard. (See the
VZAccess Manager Software User Guide for detailed instructions on installation and software features, located on
the Installation CD.)
This is a dual-band, BroadbandAccess Rev. A –enabled ExpressCard that operates over the high-speed
BroadbandAccess Rev. 0/Rev. A and NationalAccess networks in the 800/1900 bands. The enhanced EV-DO Rev.
A technology enables access to Verizon Wireless BroadbandAccess network at data speeds faster than ever*
before with lower latency, empowering you with connections at higher speeds to the Internet, your corporate Intranet,
and your email while you're away from the office.
*Verizon Wireless is rapidly adding Rev. A capability to our BroadbandAccess service area. Your BroadbandAccess Rev.A-
enabled device will indicate coverage when you are in a BroadbandAccess Rev. A service area. When outside the Rev. A service
area, BroadbandAccess typical speeds will be 400-700 kbps (download) and 60-80 kbps (upload). Speed claim based on our
network tests with 5 MB FTP data files, without compression. Actual throughput speed varies.

Wireless communications
Important Notice
Due to the transmission and reception properties of wireless communications, data can occasionally be lost or
delayed. This can be due to the variation in radio signal strength that results from changes in the characteristics of
the radio transmission path. Although data loss is rare, the environment where you operate the ExpressCard may
adversely affect communications.
Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several different factors including
signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio channels.
Verizon Wireless or its partners will not be held responsible for damages of any kind resulting from the delays or
errors in data transmitted or received with the V740 ExpressCard, or failure of the V740 ExpressCard to transmit or
receive such data.
