Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed

and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the

user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the distance between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance, (example - use only shielded interface

cables when connecting to computer or peripheral devices) any changes or modifications

not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s

authority to operate this equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

IMPORTANT NOTE

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any

other antenna or transmitter.

CSA Statement (Canada)

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from

digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of Industry Canada.

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radio-électriques dépassant les

limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la classe B prescrites dans le Règlement

Introduction

The WLAN Cardbus is a 54 Mbps wireless network adapter that seamlessly integrates

with existing Ethernet networks to support applications such as mobile users or temporary

conferences. This solution offers a high data rate and reliable wireless connectivity with

considerable cost savings over wired LANs (which include long-term maintenance

overhead for cabling.) Just install enough wireless access points to cover your network

area, plug wireless cards into your notebooks, and start networking.

Using this card in conjunction with a wireless access point, you can create an instant

network that integrates seamlessly with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LANs. Moreover, moving

or expanding your network is as easy as moving or installing additional access points – no

wires!

Features

•Wireless connection without the hassles and cost of cabling

•Greater flexibility to locate or move networked PCs

•Integrates with or replaces wired LANs at dramatically lower cost than wired

alternatives

•Seamless connectivity to wired Ethernet LANs augments existing networks quickly and

easily

•Easy installation

•Direct Sequence Spread-Spectrum (DSSS) technology provides robust,

interference-resistant and secure wireless connection

•Complemetary Code Keying (CCK) ensures backward compatibility to the existing

IEEE 802.11b WLAN infrastructure

•Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) provides the speed required for

today’s high-bandwidth application

•Supports Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP

•Supports WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security

•Provides a user-friendly interface for configuration

•Extended range feature supported

EZ Connect™ g WLAN Cardbus

Applications

Offers a fast, reliable, cost-effective solution for wireless client access to the network in

applications like these:

•Remote access to corporate network information

E-mail, file transfer, and terminal emulation

•Difficult-to-wire environments

Historic or old buildings, asbestos installations, and open areas where wiring is difficult

to employ

•Frequently changing environments

Retailers, manufacturers, and banks who frequently rearrange the workplace and

change location

•Temporary LANs for special projects or peak times

Trade shows, exhibitions, and construction sites that need a temporary setup for a

short time period. Retailers, airline, and shipping companies that need additional

workstations for peak periods. Auditors who require workgroups at customer sites

•Access to database for mobile workers

Doctors, nurses, retailers, office workers who need access to databases while being

mobile in the hospital, retail store or office campus

•SOHO users

SOHO (Small Office and Home Office) users who need easy and quick installation of a

small computer network
