The maximum performance for wireless is derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specications. Actual performance can vary, including lower wireless
network capacity, data throughput rate, range and coverage. Performance depends on many factors, conditions and variables, including distance from
the access point, volume of network trac, building materials and construction, operating system used, mix of wireless products used, interference and
other adverse conditions.

Specications are subject to change without notice.
