Chapter 1 - Product Overview
Features
With support for current Wireless-N, Wireless-G, and Wireless-B standards, the AirStation can transfer
data to and from all standard 2.4 GHz wireless network devices.
AOSS (AirStation One-touch Secure System) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) make connection with
wireless devices easier.
AirStation is equipped with following security features.
• WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES)
• WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES)
• WEP (128/64bit)
Thanks to a movable antenna, you can enjoy a comfortable radio environment without moving your
laptop computer.
You can verify the reception at 3 levels with LED display.
300 Mbps High Speed Mode
300 Mbps is the link speed when using 2 channel Wireless-N mode. It represents actual wireless
data speeds, including overhead. Because the overhead is not available for user data transfer, usable
wireless throughput will be substantially slower.
