2. TANDBERG’s Implementation

TANDBERG has implemented the 802.11b standard into the TANDBERG 1000 product, using a standard PC card, to deliver 768kbps of exceptional video and audio quality. This feature allows for ‘hot desk’ applications where a video conferencing unit may be shared from desk to desk without the need for expensive Ethernet cabling.

2.1 Supported PC Cards

TANDBERG continues to develop drivers for different wireless cards

based upon market requests and availability of the PC cards. Currently, TANDBERG supports the following PC cards for 802.11b based on their global availability and popularity among the wireless community. While it is possible through the 802.11b standard to mix wireless network interface cards (NIC) and access point vendors, TANDBERG recommends using the same vendor for both to minimize any possible interoperability problems.

2.2 Features and Menu Settings

The following features are available through the user interface for set up.

2.2.1SSID (Service Set Identification) Requirement: Mandatory

The SSID, also known as ESSID (extended SSID), is the network name or network ID on which the particular unit will operate. This is very similar in comparison to a NT domain and can be comprised of text and/or numbers. It is important to use the same SSID as the access point. If the SSID in the TANDBERG unit is incorrect (this includes case sensitive mistakes) the unit will not be able to communicate with the access point. The SSID is a case sensitive label.

2.2.2Community

Requirement: Optional
