WL-1600USB

High Power 802.11G USB Adapter With Detachable Antenna

irLive WL-1600USB is a High Power 802.11g USB Adapter with detachable antenna. It

is designed to transfer data wirelessly over the longest possible distance.

High Power For Greater Distance of Wireless Coverage

With transmission power of 20dBm, WL-1600USB offers long distance wireless coverage. By using 5dBi antenna which is included in WL-1600USB, it can reach up to 22Mbps in normal indoor usage.

With a simple change of antenna, WL-1600USB can reach a distance of over 2 km while maintaining an average throughput of 12Mbps.

Detachable 5dBi Antenna

The included 5dBi omni antenna provides all directional coverage at twice the distance of standard 2dBi antenna. It is perfect for indoor client or AP user. For even more demanding application, the antenna can be removed and replaced with another antenna (using standard R-SMA connector) to ensure greater flexibility and options.

Software AP Function

In addition to the WLAN USB adapter function, the WL-1600USB can also works as an Access Point. The Software AP function allows the WL-1600USB to work as an AP when connected to your PC. The drivers for Windows and Linux are included.
