Nokia 5510 Product Support

Terms and abbreviations

AAC
Advanced Audio Coding, which is a high-quality audio coding technology and the solution of choice for many broadcast and electronic music distribution applications. In independent tests, the coding efficiency of AAC proved to be superior to MP3, providing good quality audio reproduction at lower bit rates. With the AAC format you can save twice as many songs on your Nokia 5510 compared to the MP3 format. AAC is compatible with digital rights management (DRM), encryption and watermarking solutions available today.

CSD
Circuit Switched Data is used to make a 'normal' GSM data call.

Chat
The Chat function allows you to have a conversation, with another party by using text messages, similar to chat services on the Internet. You can chat either Point-to-point or Multipoint (Please contact your operator for information on availability and how to subscribe to the service.)

Concatenated messaging allows you to type longer messages. Your phone automatically connects up to three messages, making your messages almost three times longer than normal SMS messages. The invoicing of multi-part messaging may vary; please contact your operator for further information.
