Chapter 1: Product Overview
Thank you for choosing the Cisco Valet Connector. The
Valet Connector lets your Windows-based desktop or
laptop computer access the Internet wirelessly through
your Valet wireless hotspot or other wireless hotspot,
router, or access point. It also features Wi-Fi Protected
Access 2 (WPA2) encryption for security, helping to protect
your data and privacy.

Storing the Cap

When the Valet Connector is plugged into the USB
Extension Base or your laptop computer’s USB port, you
can store the cap by attaching it to the Valet Connector.
To store the cap, push it onto the top of the Valet Connector
until it fits snugly.

USB Extension Base

The Valet Connector comes attached to its USB Extension
Base. Using the Valet Connector in its Base may often
improve wireless signal performance, especially with
desktop computers that may be located under desks or
tabletops.
To use the USB Extension Base, make sure the Valet
Connector is connected to the Base, and then connect the
Base to a USB port on your computer or laptop.
