The Wireless-N
Notebook Adapter is the simple way to add or upgrade wireless
connectivity in your notebook computer. Just slide it into your
notebooks PC Card slot and enjoy incredible high-speed wireless
network access while retaining true mobility.
The Wireless-N Notebook Adapter uses the very
latest wireless networking technology, Wireless-N (draft
802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios,
Wireless-Ns "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology
multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless
networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections,
MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and
reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust
signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections up to 4
times farther than standard Wireless-G.
With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the
more speed advantage you get. It works great with standard
Wireless-G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless
link are Wireless-N, the throughput can be increased even more
by using twice as much radio band, yielding speeds up to 12
times as fast as standard Wireless-G.
Once youre connected, you can keep in touch
with your e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other
resources such as printers and network storage with other
computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home, you can
surf the web or use instant messaging to chat with friends while
sitting out on the patio. Youll also be able to connect with
any of the growing number of public hotspots springing up in
coffee shops, airport lounges, hotels and convention centers.
Your wireless connection is protected by industrial-strength
256-bit encryption. The included Setup Wizard will walk you
through configuring the adapter to your networks settings, step
by step.
The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it
ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video,
gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of
headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams through the
network at the same time, with no degradation in performance.
