stereo device for audio input.

 

Communications

 

 

 

 

 

 

LAN

The computer has built-in support for Ethernet

 

 

 

LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T) and

 

 

Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second,

 

 

100BASE-TX).

 

BluetoothTM

Some models are equipped with 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 to use.

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 the wireless LAN can reach, may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, client design and software/hardware configurations. The transmission rate described is the theoretical maximum speed as specified under the appropriate standard - the actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.

■To enable or disable wireless communication, use the Hot Key

FN + F8. For more information see the Hot keys section in Chapter 5.
