is ideal for users of next generation Palms, Pocket PCs, Smartphones, printers and scanners. Additionally,

the card gives users the ability to work whilst away from the office by connecting to the rapidly

expanding public hotspot infrastructure. Such venues as coffee shops, airports, shopping malls, hotels, etc

are offering this capability based on the IEEE802.11b standard. For mobile applications, battery life is

extended through the use of enhanced power saving features, which reduce the current drain whilst in

standby mode (the card is in this state for the majority of the time as it awaits data destined for it).

Not only does the WLAN6065SD Card roam seamlessly among multiple 802.11b wireless network

access point, it also operates in peer to peer mode (without an access point) to download data from

wirelessly equipped laptops without a cradle or network connection, and can share data directly with

wireless PDAs.

This is a complete WLAN solution incorporating the Baseband Processor, Mac, Memory, VCO,

Transceiver, Antenna, antenna switch and power amplifier and to realize a complete design. The card will

be fully WiFi certified.
