OTC Wireless 802.11G technical manual Introduction

Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION

The WiJET.G is an IEEE 802.11g compliant product designed specifically for wirelessly connecting projectors and monitors to computers. It connects to the existing VGA connector of the projector/monitor and offers 802.11g connectivity up to 54 Mbps.

The advantages of the WiJET.G become obvious in any conference room where the ideal location of the projector or display screen makes it difficult for a laptop or desktop to connect to it while allowing the speaker to maintain audience interest. All too frequently, projectors placed in the middle of the room force the speaker to present from the middle of the room, because of the VGA cable that exists between the projector and the presenter’s laptop.

The WiJET.G solves this problem by allowing any laptop or desktop with an 802.11g Wi-Fi adapter to give the presentation from anywhere in the conference room that the presenter desires. Wherever the presenter feels would garner the most amount of interest from the audience. Truly freedom from wires allows for more flexibility in meetings.

Another application of the WiJET.G is in a situation where multiple presenters must give presentations in rapid succession. The WiJET.G allows for fast handover of the projector or monitor without the hassle of removing and reattaching the VGA cable. Using the easy-to-use Presentation Session Manager, the presenters can effortlessly connect to the WiJET.G, give a presentation, and disconnect from the WiJET.G to allow another user to connect to it without touching a single cable.

A third application that showcases the advantages of the WiJET.G is where there are multiple conference rooms with multiple projectors. A WiJET.G in every conference room will substantially save setup time when the presenter comes into the room. The presenter only simply selects the WiJET.G number displayed on the projector/monitor screen and he is instantly connected to the projector and able to start his presentation. This removes a lot of setup time associated with presenters moving from room to room to give their presentations, ultimately saving IT costs.

In summary, the WiJET.G is a tool that will change how people come to view conferences and meeting rooms. Instead of a static meeting place, the conference rooms can now become a dynamic meeting place where new thoughts and ideas are exchanged and created.
