Wireless Interoper abilit y
The Toshiba Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card products are designed to be interoperable with any
wireless LAN product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum(DSSS) radio
technology, and is compliant to:
•The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs(Revision B), as defined and approved
by the Institute of Electrica l a nd Elec tr onics Engin eer s.
•The Wireless Fidelity(WiFi) certification as defined by the WECA Wire le ss Ethernet
Compatibility Alliance.
Wireless LAN and your Health
Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency
electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by Wireless LAN devices
however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless
devi ces like for examp le mo bile pho nes.
Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio
frequency safety standards and recommendations, Toshi ba believes Wireless LAN is
safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the
conse nsus of the scienti fic com munit y a nd re sul t fro m de libe ra tion s of pa ne ls and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive
research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by
the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization.
These situations may for ex ample i nclude:
• Using the Wirel ess LAN equ i pment on bo ar d of airplanes , or
• In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or
ser vi ces is perceived or identified a s harmfu l .
I f y ou are unce rtain of the poli cy that applie s on t he use of wire less de vice s in a
specific organization or environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for
author i zation to use the W i r eless LAN device pri o r to tur n i ng on the equip ment.

You can use this option to setup a temporary or ad-hoc network in environments where no
access points are available (for example in Small Office/Home Office (SOHO)
environments).
As long as the stations are within range of one another, this is the easiest and least
expensive way to s et up a wireless network.

It’s Easy
The Wireless LAN Card functions like any standard wired Ether net card, but Wireless LAN
does not need any wires!
Wher e an Ethernet car d requires a c able connection to a hub and/o r patch panel, the cable
physically ties you down to the location of the wired connection.
Wireless LAN allows you connect your computer to a Local Area Network (LAN) system
fr o m any w he re w i thi n t he wi r ele s s c ov er a ge a rea . Expa ndi n g o r r e -de s i gni n g y o ur ne t wo r k
is easy: Add or relocate Wireless LAN Access Points, power-up your (new) Wireless LAN
computers, a nd you’re done!
Unlike Ethernet, Wireless LAN will enable you to roam throughout the network while
remaining connected to the LAN.
NOTE:
The Wireless LAN Car d is a radio product. Refer to the flyer “Information to the User” for
regulatory informa ti o n that ma y apply in your country.
