Introduction
The WiBear11n industrial universal module is targeted
for integration into different OEM products. The module
is designed for both simultaneous and independent
operation of the following:
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n payload data rates for Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN), Bluetooth 3.0+High
Speed (HS) and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR.
It provides a complete end-to-end solution for low-
power applications. It includes an integrated
MAC/Baseband processor and RF front-end
components and can connect to a host processor
through an SDIO interface.
The WiBear11n modules are offered in four versions
(see ordering information and block diagram).
Host drivers for common operating systems such as
Linux and Windows 7 are available.
The modules are radio type approved for Europe (CE),
US (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC) (pending).
