Abocom WPG2400 User Manual

802.11b/g Wireless LAN
PCI Card

The WPG2400 is an IEEE802.11g compliant
wireless PCI Card. It provides superior
performance and interoperability within a
mixed mode network (802.11b and 802.11g).
The WPG2400 is backwards compliant with

all 802.11b and 802.11b+ wireless equipment,

making it a seamless integrator for the most

popular wireless networks. Plus, this all-new

wireless PCI Card provides a high transfer rate
up to 54Mbps for today’s high-speed
broadband connections.

The WPG2400 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.
