802.11b/g MiniPCI
WN4402A
INTRODUCTION
WN4402A is an industrial MiniPCI Card which enables wireless networking systems to attain data transmission speeds at least up to 54 megabits-per-second (Mbps), while remaining backward compatible to the existing installed base of over 15 million Wi-Fi systems worldwide. It supports operation to both the IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g standards. WN4402A enables a next generation of high-data-rate platforms for operation in the 2.4 GHz band that deliver a five-fold speed increase. The cost and performance advantages will make it an ideal solution for high bandwidth enterprise applications, such as wireless video conferencing and large file transfers, as well as advanced home networking applications such as multi-channel CD-quality audio and DVD-quality video streaming. WN4402A incorporates the 802.11g Draft Standard's mandatory modulation schemes-- Complementary Code Keying (CCK), which is used in 802.11b, and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), used in 802.11g. Using CCK ensures backward-compatibility with the installed Wi-Fi 802.11b base, while OFDM provides the speed required for today's high-bandwidth applications
PRODUCT FEATURES
High speed for wireless LAN connection, up to 54 Mbps data rate. A new WLAN software solution that improves 802.11g throughput by over 3x. Backward compatible to the existing IEEE 802.11b WLAN infrastructure. An user-friendly utility to configure SSID, security setup and site survey. Wireless data encryption using WEP 64, 128 bit encryption for security. Hardware AES Accelerator. Built-in antenna connectors. Firmware upgrade-able by only changing driver.
APPLICATIONS
Home networking for device sharing. Wireless multimedia. Wireless office for extension Ethernet range. Mobile networking for notebook PC, PDA, Web Pad or Wireless Gateway Built-in Application.
