1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the MIMO XR™ Cardbus Adapter. When used with other
Airlink101™ MIMO XR™ wireless products, the wireless signal range extends farther
than standard 802.11g products.
This Adapter supports 64/128-bit WEP data encryption that protects your wireless
network from eavesdropping. It also supports WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) feature
that combines IEEE 802.1x and TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) technologies.
Client users are required to authorize before accessing the APs or AP Routers, and the
data transmitted through the network is encrypted/decrypted by a dynamically changing
secret key.
1.1 Package Contents
