High-Speed Wireless Networking for Your
Notebook. Now with SRX technology!
High-speed Wireless-G
networking for your
notebook computer,
now with SRX perfor-
mance enhancement
Interoperates with
standard Wireless-
G and Wireless-B
networks
New SRX technology: the
farther away, the more
advantage -- up to 8
times faster than standard
Wireless-G (802.11g)
SRX also increases wire-
less range by up to 3
times and reduces dead
spots in coverage area
The Wireless-G Notebook Adapter with SRX is the simple way to add or upgrade wireless connectivity in your notebook computer.
Just slide it into your notebook's PC Card slot and enjoy high-speed wireless network access while retaining true mobility.
"
The Wireless-G Notebook Adapter with SRX combines smart antenna technology with standards-based Wireless-G (802.11g) net-
working. By overlaying the signals of two Wireless-G compatible radios, the "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology effectively
doubles the data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses
these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther,
maintaining wireless connections up to 3 times farther than standard Wireless-G. And the farther away you are, the more advan-
tage you get -- the higher data rate and reflection-friendly technology can yield up to 8 times more throughput than Wireless-G in
some situations. The network avoids interference by dynamically switching to the clearest channel available. Even your standard
Wireless-G and -B equipment will work better when communicating with SRX-enabled devices.
Once you're connected, you can keep in touch with your e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other resources such as
printers and network storage with other computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home, you can surf the web or use
instant messaging to chat with friends while sitting out on the patio. Your wireless connection is protected by up to 128-bit encryp-
tion. The included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring the adapter to your network's settings, step by step.
You'll also be able to connect with any of the growing number of public Wireless-B (802.11b) hotspots springing up in coffee shops,
airport lounges, hotels and convention centers. And as those hotspots upgrade to the high-speed Wireless-G standard, you'll be
ready to take advantage of the increased speeds.
Get your notebook connected to Wireless-B, Wireless-G, and SRX wireless networks with the Wireless-G Notebook Adapter with SRX
from Linksys.
