Compaq WL210 WIRELESS PCI CARD QUICK INSTALL GUIDE

Card Specifications A-7
The range of the wireless signal is related to the Transmit
Rate of the wireless communication. Communications at
lower Transmit range will travel larger distances.
Note: The range values listed above are typical distances as
measured at the Compaq 11 Mbps Wireless LAN
laboratories. These values may provide a rule of
thumb and may vary according to the actual radio
conditions at the location where the 11 Mbps
Wireless LAN product will be installed.
The range of your wireless devices can be affected when the
antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid high-
density materials.
