1. Product Overview
1.1.
Introduction
The UMD-606N Micro 802.11n USB Adapter is, in our opinion, the world’s smallest wireless
adapter which provides a simple (physical WPS button) and secure (64/128bit WEP, WPA,
WPA2 WLAN security) way to enable 150M 802.1n wireless access to your notebook or
desktop computer.
It uses the latest Green WLAN technology, which controls power consumption automatically in
accordance with WLAN activities. No setting is required for this function. This Micro USB
Adapter can save up to 80% power consumption compared with legacy 802.11n products.
