1.2 Overview of the Product
PCI Adapter connects you with IEEE802.11n (Draft 2.0) networks at
transfer rate up to an incredible 300Mbps! By using the reflection signal,
802.11n technology increases the range and reduces “dead spots” in the
wireless coverage area. Unlike ordinary wireless networking of 802.11b/g
standards that are confused by wireless reflections, 802.11n can actually
use these reflections to increase four times transmission range of 802.11g
products.
Besides, when both ends of the wireless link are 802.11n products, the PCI
card can utilize twice radio band to increase three times transmission speed
of ordinary 802.11g standard products, and can comply with backwards
802.11b/802.11g standards.
Soft AP supported by PCI Adapter can help you establish wireless LAN
networking with lowest cost. Also WPS (PBC and PIN) encryption method
can free you from remembering the long passwords. Complete WMM
function makes your voice and video more smooth.
