How wireless works
Your wireless service is different from your home or business phone service. On a
wireless device, you must press
Send to alert the network to connect your call. Unlike
the calls you make on a home or business phone, wireless communications travel over
the air and can react to the environment. Rain, snow, fog, falling leaves, water,
mountains, canyons and even buildings may affect service. All wireless service is
subject to “dead zones,” or no-coverage areas.
Verizon Wireless network technology
Verizon Wireless offers CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) digital network
technology to most of its customers. CDMA digital technology offers many benefits
compared to analog, such as less static, enhanced voice clarity, increased privacy and
longer battery life. A CDMA digital phone is necessary to subscribe to our digital
service. Verizon Wireless only sells digital wireless devices that are E911 compatible
and either all-digital or tri-mode, which means you may use analog or CDMA digital
services on different frequencies.
