An implantable neuromodulation device includes a plurality of electrical terminals configured for being respectively coupled to a plurality of electrodes; analog output circuitry configured for delivering electrical modulation energy to the electrical terminals in accordance with programming data from a first external control device; a low-speed telemetry system configured for receiving the programming data; a high-speed telemetry system configured for receiving non-programming data from a second external control device; and memory configured for storing the programming data and the non-programming data. The low-speed telemetry system has a data transfer rate in the range of 2-800 kbits/sec, and the high-speed telemetry system has a data transfer rate in the range of 1-50 Mbits/sec. The high-speed telemetry system may have a greater telemetry range than the low-speed telemetry system.
