  Appendix A- Hardware Specifications. This appendix provides hardware 
specifications for the Wireless LAN Card. 
• 
 Appendix B-Glossary. Defines various terminology associated with Wireless 
LANs. 
 
Product Overview 
The 802.11g Wireless LAN Card gives you the freedom of secure high-speed 
communications with other PCs without the need for interconnecting wires. You 
can even connect in to other LAN infrastructures such as your company’s internal 
Ethernet LAN or your own home network. The antenna and design of the 
Wireless LAN Card gives you unmatched sensitivity which means your system 
will remain connected to other wireless PCs at high speeds for longer distances. 
The Wireless LAN Card operates according to the IEEE 802.11g Wireless LAN 
specification, for wireless data communications at speeds up to 54Mbps 
(Megabits per second). IEEE 802.11g operates on frequencies in the 2.4GHz 
range using OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technology. 
Backed by international standards and the IEEE organization, IT departments 
and end-users alike benefit from the reliability and interoperability of products 
based on these standards. From an investment point of view, it makes good 
business sense investing in technology that will be support worldwide for many 
years to come (unlike technologies not backed by international communications 
standards). Whether you are running a company or a home office, the Wireless 
LAN Card reduces, or eliminates in some cases, the need to setup wired LAN 
networks in the office or home office, eliminating costs associated with wiring 
rooms and buildings.
