	Satellite A500/A500D
LAN	The computer has built-in support for Ethernet
	LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T),
	Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second,
	100BASE-TX) and Gigabit Ethernet LAN
	(1000 megabits per second, 1000BASE-T).
	It is pre-installed as a standard device in some
	markets.
Bluetooth™	Some computers in this series have Bluetooth
	wireless communication function which
	eliminates the need for cables between
	electronic devices such as computers and
	printers and mobile phones. When it is enabled,
	Bluetooth provides the wireless personal area
	network environment which is safe and
	trustworthy, that is quick and easy.
Wireless LAN	The computers in this series are equipped with a
	Wireless LAN module that is compatible with
	other LAN systems based on Direct Sequence
	Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal Frequency Division
	Multiplexing radio technology that complies with
	the IEEE 802.11 Standard.

■The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over which wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations. The Transmit Rate (at X Mbit/s) is the theoretical maximum speed under the IEEE802.11 (a/b/g/n) standards. The actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.
