Wireless LAN
Some computers in this series support Wireless LAN.
The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum radio technology that complies with IEEE
802.11 Wireless LAN standard (Revision A or G) and Turbo Mode. It
supports the following features:
■
Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6, 2 and 1 Mbit/s. (Revision A)
■
Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6, 2 and 1 Mbit/s. (Revision G)
■
Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
108, 96, 72, 48, 36, 24, 18 and 12 Mbit/s. (Turbo Mode)
■
Frequency Channel Selection (Revision A/Turbo Mode: 5 GHz,
Revision G: 2.4 GHz)
■
Roaming over multiple channels
■
Card Power Management
■
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the
40/104/128 bits RC4 encryption algorithm.
■
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on the
128 bit encryption algorithm.
Wake-up on LAN does not function on a Wireless LAN.
Radio links
You can easily establish links between two or more devices. The link is
maintained even if the devices are not within line of sight.
Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:
■
Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it
impossible to falsify the origin of a message.
■
Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
