Description:
Whether you're upgrading to a higher-end adapter or setting up your first home network, the Linksys WPC54GX Wireless-G notebook adapter is your ticket to wireless convenience and optimal performance. The SRX-enhanced cardbus adapter gives you the mobility to use your laptop PC anywhere in the house--and, when used in concert with other SRX-enabled networking components, you'll enjoy unparalleled range and speed. The WPC54GX uses Linksys's advanced SRX (Speed and Range eXpansion) technology, which enhances the speed and reach of a Wireless-G (802.11g) network. Relative to standard 802.11g technology, a network using all SRX products can extend network reach up to 3 times as far and boost wireless network speed by up to 8 times. (Actual throughput, speed, and range depend on a host of factors, from building materials to network traffic and distance from your network router.) The device is WiFi-certified and backward compatible with 802.11b (Wireless-B), 802.11g (Wireless-G), and, of course, other Linksys SRX products. Mixed wireless environments such as networks containing SRX, Wireless-B, and Wireless-G products can operate each client at its own maximum data rate. SRX products maintain their higher speed and range, providing the throughput and quality of service to deliver applications such as VoIP (Internet telephony) and video streaming. SRX is based on MIMO (Multiple In, Multiple Out) technology, a key component in the upcoming Wireless-N (802.11n) standard. To improve range and speed, MIMO uses 2 radios and 3 antennas on a wireless cardbus adapter or client adapter. What's in the Box A Wireless-G cardbus adapter, a quick-installation guide, a resource CD, and a user's manual.
