Wireless-N Notebook Adapter High-speed Wireless-N
networking for your notebook computer
The Wireless-N Notebook Adapter is the simple way
to add or upgrade wireless connectivity in your notebook
computer. Just slide it into your notebook's PC Card
slot and enjoy incredible high-speed wireless network
access while retaining true mobility.
The Wireless-N Notebook Adapter uses the very latest
wireless networking technology, Wireless-N (draft 802.11n).
By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wireless-N's
"Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies
the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking
technologies that are confused by signal reflections,
MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the
range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage
area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining
wireless connections up to 4 times farther than standard
Wireless-G.
With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more
speed advantage you get. It works great with standard
Wireless-G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the
wireless link are Wireless-N, the throughput can be
increased even more by using twice as much radio band,
yielding speeds up to 12 times as fast as standard Wireless-G.
Once you're connected, you can keep in touch with
your e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and
other resources such as printers and network storage
with other computers on the network, wherever you wander.
At home, you can surf the web or use instant messaging
to chat with friends while sitting out on the patio.
You'll also be able to connect with any of the growing
number of public hotspots springing up in coffee shops,
airport lounges, hotels and convention centers. Your
wireless connection is protected by industrial-strength
256-bit encryption. The included Setup Wizard will walk
you through configuring the adapter to your network's
settings, step by step.
The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it ideal
for media-centric applications like streaming video,
gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty
of headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams
through the network at the same time, with no degradation
in performance. Get your notebook connected to Wireless-N,
Wireless-G, and Wireless-B networks with the Wireless-N
Notebook Adapter from Linksys.
