Full Product Details:
D-Link, the industry pioneer in wireless networking, introduces another breakthrough in wireless connectivity — the D-Link AirPremier™ AG DWL-AG660 Wireless Cardbus Adapter. This tri-mode, dualband adapter gives your laptop PC a versatile way to wirelessly connect to any one of three available wireless networks — 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11a that operate in two discrete, non-interfering frequency bands: 2.4GHz and 5GHz. So, whether you're at the office, school, at home or enjoying a cup of coffee at a public hotspot, you have the confidence in knowing whatever wireless network is active you can access.
If you're a network administrator or IT manager, by providing DWL-AG660s throughout your organization, you can provide wireless access for your roaming employees at any time. The DWL-AG660 is backwards compatible with all your existing 802.11b-compliant devices. Now, using the 802.11g, the DWL-AG660 can transfer data with a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 108Mbps. The 802.11a wireless standard on the 5GHz band also transfers with a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 108Mbps in a frequency range that does not interfere with the other standards.
With an 802.11a/b/g access point (D-Link AirPremier™ AG DWL-7100AP) or router (D-Link AirPremier™ AG DI-784), providing DWL-AG660s adapters to your workforce is an ideal way to quickly expand your wireless network. Be assured that the additional channels available by the APs or routers can handle the additional user load. With the enhancement of D-Link 108AG mode, the DWL-AG660 can transfer data with a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 108Mbps in a pure D-Link 108AG environment through the use of new wireless technology such as Packet Bursting, FastFrame, Compression & Encryption, and Turbo mode. This provides a bandwidth large enough to handle video/audio streaming and Video on Demand (VoD applications).
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and 802.1x user authentication are both integrated into the DWL-AG660 chipset to offer enhanced security so employees can communicate with colleagues confidentially or access sensitive data. The DWL-AG660 is a high-performance, versatile cardbus adapter meant for anyone who needs to connect to a wireless network whether at home, at school, or at the office.
Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11a and 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
