Features & Benefits
High-Speed,
High-Performance
Wireless Networking
for Smaller Offices
With the 3Com®
OfficeConnect®
Wireless 54 Mbps 11g
PC Card, notebook
users can access
network resources,
the Internet, and
e-mail at speeds up
to 54 Mbps and at
distances up to 100
meters (328 feet).
That's almost five
times the speed of
existing 802.11b
wireless products,
which makes this
product ideal for
small offices that
work with demanding
audio, video, and
multimedia
applications.
This 11g PC card
works with all
wireless IEEE
802.11b or 11g
access points to
create a powerful,
high-speed
all-wireless network
in minutes. The 11g
products are
compatible with 11b
products, so both
11b and 11g clients
can reside on the
same network. This
flexibility
preserves your
network investment
and allows you to
upgrade or scale
your network
according to your
budget and time
frame.
Setup and
operation are
extraordinarily
easy, making these
products great
choices for
first-time wireless
users. Like all
award-winning
OfficeConnect
products, the 11g PC
card delivers
reliability features
such as dynamic rate
shifting, which
automatically
matches the best
connection speed to
room conditions so
connections stay
clear and open. The
PC card supports
multiple encryption
schemes which
include WPA2
(Wireless Protected
Access 2) encryption
as well as 40/64-
and 128-bit
shared-key WEP
(Wireless Encryption
Protocol) encryption
to help protect data
on the wireless LAN.
And because it is
Wi-Fi certified, the
PC card should work
seamlessly with
Wi-Fi certified
products from other
vendors.
Consistently
recognized as the #1
computer networking
brand for small
offices, the 3Com
OfficeConnect family
offers a broad range
of products,
including access
points, LAN switches
and hubs, gateway
routers and
firewalls, and PC
Cards and network
adapters.
