The PageWriter TC20 cardiograph supports the AmbiCom WL150N USB wireless adapter, 
available as option D23. 

The adapter is a USB dongle that includes an integrated diversity antenna with enhanced 
transmit power and receiver sensitivity, and with superior delay spread and roaming 
capabilities. It delivers dependable connectivity in almost all demanding clinical 
environments, including those with limited access point availability, and those with numerous 
and competing wireless devices. 

The AmbiCom adapter is compatible with both the 802.11b and g wireless standards, and 
operates in the 2.4 GHz section of the radio frequency spectrum, providing a data transmission 
rate of up to 54Mbps. 

Configuration is simple, using the Microsoft NetUI utility to set up and control network 
connections and security settings. 

Additional information about the AmbiCom adapter is available at the AmbiCom website,
