Chapter 1: Introduction
Complying with the most innovative 802.11n technology, PLANET delivers a reliable and cost
effective solution - WNL-9331. WNL-9331 is a PCI 2.2 wireless adapter which integrates one
transmit channel and two concurrent receive channels; thus, it supports upload and download
up to 150Mbps data rate. Using 2.4GHz frequency band, it is backward compatible with
802.11b and 802.11g for users to create a new wireless environment based on existing
wireless network.
The WNL-9331 provides a feature rich wireless connectivity. It supports WMM to maintain
stable multimedia quality by granting high priority for such packets. For security, the WNL-9331
supports the most advanced mechanism, WPA2, to protect the information exchange through
wireless. Moreover, in order to simplify the security configurations, WPS (Wi-Fi Protected
Setup) is enhanced in WNL-9331. This design helps inexperienced users to secure their
wireless network quickly and easily.
The WNL-9331 supports most popular operating systems, Windows XP / Vista / Windows 7.
With advanced features and high speed capability, the WNL-9331 gives users the greatest
performance anytime anywhere.
