1| Overview

The new SMC2512W-AG offers some of the highest dual band transmitting power and receive sensi-

tivity in the industry. The SMC EliteConnect Universal 2.4GHz/5GHz High Power Wireless PCI Card

provides an extended operating range compared to the standard 802.11a/802.11b/802.11g clients.

Since it has the ability to significantly decrease indoor multi-path distortion, users will experience

dramatic improvements in the quality and throughput of their wireless networking. Equipped with the

flexibility of 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g, the SMC2512W-AG fits in and works throughout any

wireless enterprise network.

Based on the IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards, the new product can be configured for Ad-hoc mode

(Peer-to-Peer) or Infrastructure mode (communication to the wired network via an Access Point).

Since it is based on the 802.11a/b/g/ standard, it is interoperable among different 802.11a/b/g com-

pliant vendors. The included EZ Installation Wizard enables quick and easy setup, saving time and

resources when setting up the wireless users.

The new SMC2512W-AG Universal High Power Wireless PCI Card consists of two components:

SMC2512W-AG PCI Card and SMC2536W-AG Wireless Cardbus Adapter. The SMC2512W-AG

PCI Card is a high-performance PCI Card that bridges between PCI and PC Card desktop computer

interfaces. It is compliant with both 16-bit and 32-bit PC Card specification defined in PCMCIA Re-

lease 2.1 and JEIDA 4.1 notes, plus it is able to support any combination of 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit PC

Cards in one socket that has 3.3V or 5.0V power requirements. The SMC2536W-AG is an

802.11a/b/g High Power Wireless Cardbus Adapter that connects with an existing Ethernet installation

so wireless users can gain instant network access and resources. This combined solution becomes

EliteConnect Universal 802.11a/b/g High Power Wireless PCI Card which enables superior perform-

ance, range and reliability for wireless desktop users.
