Chapter 1 Introduction

1. Introduction

WN8522B is a dual band wireless 802.11n USB Adapter which enables wireless networking systems to attain data communication speeds up to 300 megabits-per-second (Mbps), while remaining backward compatible to the existing installed base of Wi-Fi systems worldwide. It supports operation to the IEEE 802.11a/b and IEEE 802.11g ,and draft IEEE 802.11n standards. WN8522B will enable a next generation of high-data-rate platforms for operation in the 2.4 GHz band that deliver a five-fold speed increase. The cost and performance advantages will make it an ideal solution for high bandwidth enterprise applications, such as wireless video conferencing and large file transfers. It is compatible with 802.11g standard's mandatory modulation schemes—Complementary Code Keying (CCK), which is used in 802.11b, and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), used in 802.11g and draft 802.11n. Using CCK ensures backward-compatibility with the installed Wi-Fi 802.11b base, while OFDM provides the speed required for today's high-bandwidth applications.
