Introducing the
ELSA AirLancer
PC card The wireless network card
ELSA AirLancer MC-2 is designed as a PC card. In contrast to
other PC cards,
ELSA AirLancer MC-2 has an antenna extending beyond the base of the
card.
LEDs The antenna has three LEDs, which provide information on the status and the activity of
the card:
K

successfully loaded.
K
The yellow LED indicates that the wireless network card is logged on to a base
station.

The green LED shows the activity on the wireless network, i.e. transmission and
reception of data packets. If this LED is not lit or is permanently lit, the wireless
network card is faulty.
ELSA AirLancer MC-2 can be inserted into a free PCMCIA slot. If you use the wireless
network card in a desktop PC, you will need an adapter.

are interchangeable. Therefore, if you do not require the PC card on a desktop PC for a
period, you can easily install it in another notebook.
