Atheros 2T2R PCIe Module
EMP7618
2.4 / 5 GHz
802.11a/b/g/n
300Mbps
EMP7618 is a 2.4 / 5Ghz Dual Band 2T2R PCIe Half-Card
Module based on the Atheros AR9382 solution which
features improved transmission power and sensitivity by
Senao Networks.
Using the AR9382 internal FEM, it is the ideal cost effective
solution for platform integration.
With enhanced technologies such as advanced power
management and receiver boost, it makes the EMP7618 the
ideal 2.4 or 5Ghz 2T2R module.
Features
Benefits
Advanced Power Management
Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (UAPSD), it
allows the RF module to spend more time in “sleep” state.
Dynamic MIMO Power Save allows radios to downshift to less
intensive Tx configurations when traffic is light.
Receiver Boost
Utilizing Maximum Likelihood Demodulation (MLD) and
Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) to optimize signal receiving.
