Introduction
The
802.11g Wireless Access Point
provides the most expanded user bandwidth
available in an AP. Network members can connect to this AP using any of its channels to
transfer data at speeds never achievable before in a wireless device. The 802.11g
Wireless Access Point operates seamlessly and simultaneously in the 2.4GHz frequency
spectrums supporting the 802.11b and the newer, faster 802.11g wireless standards.
For offices, schools or public hotspots that already use 802.11b devices, the 802.11g
Wireless Access Point is a great way to expand an existing network and enable even
more users to communicate with one another, access data and the Internet. Now, you
can have an AP that will compliment your existing network and protect the investment
you made when you provided the convenience of wireless networking.
The 802.11g Wireless Access Point offers transfer rates up to 54Mbps in the 2.4GHz
band, large data packets travel from the router to a remote desktop or roaming laptop
PC at up to five times the speed of previous wireless devices. Everyone can work faster
and more efficiently or watch a streaming video smoothly. Network administrators can
partition the usage of the 802.11g Wireless Access Point by segmenting the users on
the wireless network by frequency band. Users who require special networking privileges
— access to sensitive information, specific departments or videoconferencing — may
use just the 802.11b and 802.11g channels. This type of user segmentation optimizes
the AP’s performance and delivers the best network experience to each set of users.
The 802.11g Wireless Access Point is ideal for network administrators who require
additional management, firewall, and other network security features. All of the AP’s
settings are easily accessible in the operating system independent, Web-based software
user interface that also features a step-by-step Setup Wizard to get your router up and
running in just a matter of minutes. The 802.11g Wireless Access Point incorporates the
WPA* (Wi-Fi Protected Access) which dynamically encrypts data as it’s being sent.
