Introduction
The Wireless CardBus Adapter is a 54 Mbps wireless network adapter that
seamlessly integrates with existing Ethernet networks to support applications
such as mobile users or temporary conferences. This solution offers a high
data rate and reliable wireless connectivity with considerable cost savings over
wired LANs (which include long-term maintenance overhead for cabling.) Just
install enough wireless access points to cover your network area, plug wireless
cards into your notebooks, and start networking.
Using this card in conjunction with a wireless access point, you can create an
instant network that integrates seamlessly with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LANs.
Moreover, moving or expanding your network is as easy as moving or installing
additional access points – no wires!
