INTRODUCING SD WLAN CARD CARD
The SD WLAN Card is a wireless network card that complies with the IEEE 802.11b standard on wireless
LANs (Revision B).
SD WLAN Card features and benefits
•Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) certified (Expected in Q2/04).
•Supports data rates up to 11 Mbps.
•Fully compatible with any other wireless LAN system based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
radio technology that complies with the “IEEE 802.11b standard on wireless LANs.
•Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbps.
•128 bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption and WPA support.
•Efficient Power Management.
•Roaming over multiple channels.
•Working range up to 300 meters in an open environment.
•Supports Ad-hoc and infrastructure modes for easy wireless communication.
SD WLAN Card Wireless Network Scenarios
•The SD WLAN Card enables you to:
•Connect your computer to a Peer-to-Peer workgroup of wireless computing devices
•Connect your computer to a Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) network that includes Wi-Fi access
points.
•Connect your computer to a Local Area Network (LAN) Infrastructure that includes the SD WLAN
Card, or other IEEE 802.11b compliant LAN systems
Wireless stations can be equipped with the SD WLAN Card, but also with other WLAN PC Cards. Both
the SD WLAN Card and the WLAN PC Card share the same wireless functionality.

Peer-to-Peer (Ad-hoc) Workgroup
The Peer-to-Peer workgroup configuration enables you to
quickly set up a small wireless workgroup, where the
workgroup participants can exchange files using features
like “Files and Printer Sharing” as supported by Microsoft®
Networking.
You can use this option to setup a temporary or Ad-hoc
network in environments where no access points are
available (for example in Small Office/Home Office
“SOHO” environments). As long as the stations are within
range of one another, this is the easiest and least expensive
way to set up a wireless network.
Home Networking
With SD WLAN Card, wireless access to the Internet or other
devices is at your fingertips. All you need to do is connect the
SD WLAN Card to an existing access point that may be
connected to the external Cable or xDSL modems and you are
ready to:
Share files and printers, and
Access the Internet.
2-2-3 Enterprise Networking
With the Wi-Fi certified Access Point in the corporate network
system, you can connect to a corporate Local Area Network (LAN) infrastructure to access all network
facilities in wireless. LAN Infrastructures may either be:
Stand-alone wireless LANs.
Wireless network infrastructures connected to an existing Ethernet network.
About the SD WLAN Card CD-ROM
The SD WLAN Card CD-ROM contains both software and documentation for the SD WLAN Card card.
INSTALLING THE DRIVER
