Introduction

The

11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT

provides the most expanded user bandwidth

available in an AP. Wireless clients can connect to this AP using any of its channels to

transfer data at speeds never achievable before in a wireless device. The 11g

WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT operates seamlessly and simultaneously in the

2.4GHz frequency spectrums supporting the 802.11b and the newer, faster 802.11g

wireless standards. For offices, schools or public hotspots that already use 802.11b

devices, the 11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT is a great way to expand an existing

network and enable even more users to communicate with one another, access data and

the Internet. Now, you can have an AP that will compliment your existing network and

protect the investment you made when you provided the convenience of wireless

networking.

The 11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT offers transfer rates up to 54Mbps in the

2.4GHz band, large data packets travel from the router to a remote desktop or roaming

laptop PC at up to five times the speed of previous wireless devices. Everyone can work

faster and more efficiently or watch a streaming video smoothly. Network administrators

can partition the usage of the 11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT by segmenting the

users on the wireless network by frequency band. Users who require special networking

privileges — access to sensitive information, specific departments or

videoconferencing — may use just the 802.11b and 802.11g channels. This type of user

segmentation optimizes the AP’s performance and delivers the best network experience

to each set of users.

The 11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT is ideal for network administrators who

require additional management, firewall, and other network security features. All of the

AP’s settings are easily accessible in the operating system independent, Web-based

software user interface that also features a step-by-step Setup Wizard to get your router

up and running in just a matter of minutes. The 11g WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT

incorporates the WPA* (Wi-Fi Protected Access) which dynamically encrypts data as it’s

being sent.
