It’s Easy
The Octopus Card Bus functions like any standard wired Ethernet card, but Octopus Card Bus does not
need any wires!
Where an Ethernet card requires a cable connection to a hub and/or patch panel, the cable physically ties
you down to the location of the wired connection.
Octopus Card Bus allows you to connect your computer to a Local Area Network (LAN) system from
anywhere within the wireless coverage area. Expanding or re-designing your network is easy: Add or
relocate access point, power-up your (new) wireless computers, and you’re done!
Unlike Ethernet, TwinMOS Octopus Card Bus will enable you to roam throughout the network while
remaining connected to the LAN.
Note
The Octopus Card Bus wireless adapter is a radio product. Refer to the flyer ”Information to the
User” for regulatory information that may apply in your country.
