About Network Communications
You can use the mobile computer in your wireless or wired data
collection network. You can connect your computer using:
• 802.11 radio communications.
• Ethernet communications.
• Bluetooth communications.
• USB and serial communications.
Configure 802.11 Radio Communications
The CN51 has an 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/b/g/n radio to transfer data
using wireless communications. Before you configure radio
communications, you need to have your wireless network set up
including your access points.
Caution: Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30
cm (1 ft) apart when power is applied. Failure to comply could
result in equipment damage.
