DWL-G122

2.4GHz Wireless LAN

Key Features

802.11g Wireless LAN USB Adapter 

The DWL-G122 is a high-performance 802.11g wireless LAN USB adapter that connects your computer to a high-speed 
wireless LAN. This adapter simply plugs to your computer through a fast USB 2.0 interface to provide up to 54Mbps 
wireless speed. With industry standard interoperability, backward compatibility with 802.11b devices and plug-and-play 
installation, this adapter is an ideal solution for notebook and laptop PC users needing fast and standard mobile network 
connection.

UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS

Up to 54Mbps Transmission Speed

Compatible With 802.11b

Easy Migration to Higher Bandwidth

Network Security

The DWL-G122 provides speeds of up to 54Mbps when 
used with other 802.11g wireless devices. This compares 
favorably with 802.11b adapters that offer only 11Mbps 
transmission.

Like the 802.11b devices, the DWL-G122 uses a single 
2.4GHz wireless frequency, eliminating the complexity of 
dualband networking. 802.11g's compatibility with existing 
wireless LAN standards means that you do not need to 
change your entire network to maintain connectivity.

By maintaining compatibility with your existing wireless 
network equipment, this adapter lets you upgrade to a 
higher speed at the pace you want. The DWL-G122 and 
other 802.11g standard devices can be gradually added to 
your network, while the rest of your older network remains 
perfectly connected.

The DWL-G122 supports Wi-Fi  Protected Access (WPA) 
to provide the necessary security protocols and tools, so 
you can communicate with other wireless users 
confidentially, access sensitive information or send data 

that is dynamically encrypted as it's sent. WPA allows 
authorization and identification of users based on a secret 
key that changes automatically at a regular interval. Used in 
conjunction with a RADIUS server, WPA uses TKIP 
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal 
key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater 
security than the standard WEP security, which requires the 
keys to be changed manually. 

The DWL-G122 is equipped with a fast USB 2.0 port and a 
USB cable that connects to your computer, providing data 
throughput at up to 480Mbps between the network adapter 
and the host computer. That is about 40 times faster than the 
earlier USB 1.1 specification, allowing you to take 
advantage of the high 54Mbps wireless speed that this 
adapter provides.

With USB hot swap and plug-and-play capabilities, the 
DWL-G122 provides you with fast and easy connectivity to 
wireless devices and users, no matter if they use the 
802.11b or the fast 802.11g standard.
