Product Description

The Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6230 is a dual-band (2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz), 2x2, IEEE

802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi plus Bluetooth* wireless adapter that delivers up to 300 Mbps of bandwidth, up to 2x the range, and more consistent connectivity provides a low profile design for existing laptops as well as for newer, thinner, smaller laptops, netbooks and tablets. The Intel Intel-only features, such as Intel® Wireless Display, to enhance today’s mobile lifestyle.

Features

 Up to 5x faster and 2x range  Bluetooth* connectivity  IEEE standards based 802.11a/b/g/n

WLAN adapter

 Advanced security via 802.11i  Industry leading power consumption

Minimizes the time needed to transfer large files and enables applications such as High Definition (HD) video streaming 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.

Enables wireless connectivity to Bluetooth* enabled devices such as mice, keyboards, and headsets.

Wirelessly share your videos, photos, music or the Internet from your laptop to your HDTV.

Enables direct wireless connectivity to millions of Wi-Fi enabled devices such as digital cameras, portable media players, game players, and printers without an access point for file sharing, file syncing, or streaming activities. Also supports Intel® Wireless Display.

Reduced WLAN power consumption results in potentially longer platform battery life utility, enjoyment, and convenience.

Enables the Intel newer, thinner, smaller laptops, netbooks and tablets.

Reduces the time spent validating Intel® Centrino establishing a single software package for all Wi-Fi drivers and applications.

Enables flexible performance pairing of Intel® Centrino® wireless products with most Intel® processors and chipsets.

Provides IT managers the capability to remotely discover, heal, and protect wireless notebooks regardless of the functional state of the operating system which can result in reduced on-site support costs.
