IEEE802.11b
11Mbps Wireless
PC Card

INTRODUCT
The 802.11b Wireless 16bit PC Card is a device that lets you

connect your notebook to a wireless local area network (LAN).
A wireless LAN is like a regular LAN, except that you can share
information without looking for a place to plug in, and augment
networks without installing or moving wires. Based on radio
frequency (RF) technology, a wireless LAN transmits and
receives data over the air, along with the guarantee to provide
privacy and noninterference by the use of separate radio frequency.

The 802.11b Wireless 16bit PC Card allows you to take full
advantage of your PC's mobility with access to real-time
information and online services anytime and anywhere. Plus,
with the network installation simplicity and flexibility, you can
eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings and
allow the network to go where wires cannot go. Exploring WWW
and augmenting networks can never be done more easily.
