1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Wireless LAN Cardbus Adapter. This adapter features the
latest innovation wireless technology. For WLAN security issues, this adapter supports
64/128-bit WEP data encryption that protects your wireless network from eavesdropping. It
also supports WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) feature that combines IEEE 802.1x and TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) technologies. Client users are required to authorize before
accessing to APs or AP Routers, and the data transmitted in the network is
encrypted/decrypted by a dynamically changed secret key. This adapter has built-in AES
engine which ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information
and it is the most advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the wireless
network. It also supports 32-bit cardbus interface which enables higher transmission
performance. Furthermore, this adapter provides several kinds of power saving modes
allowing user customizes the way of saving the power from his/her portable or handheld
devices. This adapter is cost-effective, together with the versatile features, it is the best
solution for you to build your wireless network.
