Mobile Performance
1
Over 5X bandwidth increase
Up to 300 Mbps
802.11a/b/g solutions
Up to 2X greater range1
MIMO, diversity, and support for up to two
antennas enable better wireless reception at the
same distance when compared to 802.11a/b/g
solutions
Industry-leading power consumption2
Optimized power modes (sleep states) reduce
power consumption during periods of inactivity
1
bandwidth compared to 54 Mbps
Minimizes the time needed to transfer large files and enables applications such as High Definition
(HD) video streaming, Voice over IP (VoIP), and multi-player gaming
Reduces the number of “dead zones”, network re-connects, and dropped data packets; dramatically
improving connectivity throughout the home and enabling more consistent coverage in the
enterprise
Reduced WLAN power consumption results in potentially longer platform battery life2 for greater
utility, enjoyment, and convenience
