HSCSD utilizes up to four 9.6Kb or 14.4Kb time slots, for a total bandwidth of 38.4Kb or 57.6Kb.14.4Kb time slots are only available on GSM networks that operate at 1,800Mhz. 900Mhz GSM networks are limited to 9.6Kb time slots. EDGE (Enhanced Data-Rates for GSM Evolution) enabled GSM networks are able to implement ECSD (Enhanced Circuit Switched Data), an enhanced version of HSCSD. ECSD increases the bandwith of each timeslot to 38.4Kb.
