Revolutionary N1 Wireless Technology with MIMO (N1 MIMO)
Your Belkin Vision wireless router uses a new smart-antenna technology
called Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) . N1 MIMO complies
with the IEEE draft 802 .11n specification . It increases speed, range,
reliability, and spectral efficiency for wireless networking systems .
The element that makes Belkin’s N1 MIMO technology different from a
conventional radio is the use of multiple antennas and two simultaneous
data streams to deliver wireless transfers around your home or office . A
conventional radio uses one antenna to transmit a data stream . Belkin’s
N1 MIMO technology, on the other hand, uses three antennas . This
design helps combat distortion and interference . Belkin’s N1 MIMO is
multidimensional . It builds on one-dimensional smart-antenna technology
by simultaneously transmitting two data streams through the same channel,
which increases wireless capacity .
Another element that enhances Belkin’s N1 MIMO technology is the use of
aggregation as specified in the draft 802 .11n standard . By shortening the
space between packets and combining multiple smaller packets into one
larger packet, Belkin’s N1 MIMO technology can transmit more data through
available bandwidth .
Think of conventional radio transmission as a two-lane highway . The
speed limit governs the maximum allowable flow of traffic through
that lane . Compared with conventional radios, one-dimensional
smart-antenna systems help move traffic through that lane faster
and more reliably—analogous to a four-lane road on which traffic
consistently moves at a rate closer to the speed limit . Belkin’s N1
MIMO technology helps traffic move at the speed limit and opens
more lanes—to become the superhighway in this example . The rate of
traffic flow is multiplied by the number of lanes that are opened .
Placement of your N1 Vision
Important Factors for Placement and Setup
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is
to your N1 Vision . Typical indoor operating range for wireless devices
is between 100 and 200 feet .
In the same way, your wireless connection and performance will degrade
somewhat as the distance between your N1 Vision and connected devices
increases . This may or may not be noticeable to you . As you move further
from your N1 Vision, connection speed may decrease . Factors that can
weaken signals simply by getting in the way of your network’s radio waves
are metal appliances or obstructions, and walls .
