systems age re Data Sheet February 2002 Wireless LAN Mini PCI Type ll IA Card introduction The Mini PCI Type IIA Card is an 11 Gambits wireless networking card with a range of up to 850 m (1750 ft}. With its small size, light weight, and low power consumption, iris ideally suited to integration in a wide range of OEM devices. The Mini PCI Card uses direct sequence spread spectrum (DOSS) technology, and implements BPS, DESKTOP, and CCK modulation, as defined in the IEEEĀ® 802.11b standard.
Wireless LAN Mini PCI Type III Card Physical Dimensions/Packaging Data Sheet February 2002 The Mini PCI Card has been designed to conform io the Mini PCI specification, as defined in Mini PCI Specification Rev 1.0. All dimensions in this section have a tolerance as permitted in the Mini PGI Specification.

Data Sheet February 2002 Wireless LAN Mini PCI Type IIA Card Security Al the physical layer, transmissions are encrypted using WEP; two levels of encryption are possible: * 40-bit key plus 24-bit initialization vector * 104-bit key plus 24-bit initialization vector Attacks have been made on WEP by exploiting various weaknesses. The Mini PCI Card implements random setting of the initialization vector and utilizes Surplus, which prevents initialization vectors that result in weak keys being used.
