Wireless PC Card

Chapter 1: Introduction

The Wireless PC Card

Put the “mobile” back into mobile computing! Whether you’re at your desk or in the boardroom, the Wireless PC Card allows you to share printers, files, and other resources anywhere within your LAN infrastructure, increasing your pro- ductivity and keeping you “in touch.”

The Wireless PC Card now has a new, higher-powered antenna that provides a greater range than ever. The increased sensitivity helps filter out interference and “noise” to keep your signal clear. Improved error correction in the chipset keeps you operating at higher transmission rates for longer distances. And, since you only need one Type II or III PCMCIA CardBus slot, you’re free to use your other slots for additional accessories.

Ready to run in Type II or III PCMCIA CardBus -equipped notebook PCs run- ning Windows 98SE, Me, 2000, and XP, the Wireless PC Card is truly a “must- have” for all notebook PC users.
