Radio Characteristics

Radio Characteristics of Wireless LAN Cards may vary according to:

■Country/region where the product was purchased

■Type of product

Wireless communication is often subject to local radio regulations. Although Wireless LAN wireless networking products have been designed for operation in the license-free 2.4GHz and 5GHz band, local radio regulations may impose a number of limitations to the use of wireless communication equipment.

R-F Frequency

■ Band 2.4GHz (2400~2497 MHz) for

 

802.11b/g/n (draft version)

 

■ Band gGHz (5150~5850 MHz) for

 

802.11a/n (draft version)

 

 

Modulation

■ DSSS-CCK, DSSS-DQPSK, DSSS-DBPSK

Technique

(IEEE 802.11b)

 

■ OFDM-BPSK, OFDM-QPSK,

 

OFDM-16QAMOFDM-16QAM

 

(IEEE 802.11a/g)

The range of the wireless signal is related to the transmit rate of the wireless communication device. Communications at a lower transmission rate may travel larger distances.

■The range of your wireless devices can be affected when the antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid high-density materials.

■Range is also impacted due to “obstacles” in the path of the transmission that may either absorb or reflect the radio signal.
