DWL-610

802.11b Wireless LAN CardBus Adapter

The D-Link Air DWL-610 is a powerful CardBus adapter for notebook PCs. This adapter connects you to a 2.4GHz wireless
LAN, giving you wireless access to the network. With fast 32-bit PC Card Type II interface, the DWL-610 provides industry
standard interoperability, strong data security and ease of use ideal for notebook PC users requiring wireless network
connection.

Industry-standard Interoperability

With IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN industry standard
compliance, the DWL-610 adapter provides network
interoperability for wireless connectivity.

Network Security

Security is an issue when data is transmitted without the
wires. In the air, transmitted data can be easily intercepted if
not well protected by a security scheme. The DWL-610
provides the necessary security, using 64/128-bit industry-

standard WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption
protocol. Data privacy mechanism is based on a shared key
algorithm, as described in the wireless LAN standard.

Easy Installation

With hot swap and plug-and-play capabilities, the DWL-610
adapter can be easily installed into a notebook PC to provide
connectivity directly to another wireless enabled device (ad­hoc mode) or through an Access Point (infra-structure mode).
