HSPA
HSPA is the acronym for High-Speed Packet Access.
High-Speed Packet Access
A mobile communication technology that is an evolution of the earlier 3G (third-generation) networks. HSPA combines two main technologies: HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) for faster download speeds and HSUPA (High-Speed Uplink Packet Access) for improved upload speeds. HSPA significantly enhanced data transfer rates over 3G networks, enabling better performance for online activities such as video streaming, gaming, and other data-intensive applications. This technology is relevant to sales, marketing, and online technology discussions, as it influenced mobile device capabilities and user experiences on cellular networks.
