AmbiCom WL54-CF Manuals

AmbiCom Wave2Net 54g CompactFlash Card Model: WL54-CF The WL54-CF gives you the freedom to work your way, from wherever you want. The industry standard IEEE 802.11g featuring advanced silicon chip design and is capable of delivering data transfer rates up to 54Mbps. It is ready to run in Type II Compact Flash-equipped PDAs running Windows CE, the WL54-CF is truly a “must-have” for all PDA users. 802.11g shares the same 2.4GHz frequency band which 802.11b uses. The radio circuitry and the chip are designed to work with existing 11Mbps 802.11b equipment installed earlier. Whichever standard is used, WL54-CF is ready to connect. And it is simple to use. The included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring the adapter to your network's settings, step by step. Just slide it into the CF slot of your PDA and enjoy network access, while retaining true mobility. Features • Compact Flash Type-II form factor. • IEEE 802.11g compatible. • Backward compatible with IEEE 802.11b standard. • Wire-free access to networked resources from anywhere beyond the desktop. • Delivers data rate up to 54 Mbps. • 802.11g: Dynamically shifts between 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9 and 6 Mbps network speed, based on signal strength, for maximum availability and reliability of connection. • 802.11b: Dynamically shifts between 11M, 5.5M, 2M, and 1 Mbps network speed, based on signal strength, for maximum availability and reliability of connection. • Allows users move between Access Points without resetting their connection reconfiguration. • Built-In PCB antenna with diversity design. • Support advanced power management and power saving mode. • Low CPU utilization through scatter gathers bus-mastering DMA architecture. • Uses 2.4GHz frequency band, which complies with worldwide requirement. • Fallback rate algorithm that sets the optimum transmission rate based on actual signal-to-noise ratio and packet loss information • Supports most popular operating systems: WinCE 4.2 & Windows Mobile 5.0 • Ensures great security by providing the 64/128 bits Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and WiFi Protected Access (WPA) defined in the IEEE standard. • 802.11i and WPA2 Support • 802.11e (WMM) Support
