7Networking CharacteristicsRadio CharacteristicsRadio Characteristics of the MPCI3A-20/R WIRELESS LAN CARD may vary:•According to the country where the product was purchased.•According to the type of product that was purchased.Wireless communication is often subject to local radio regulations. Although the MPCI3A-20/R WIRELESS LAN CARD has been designed for operation in the license-free 2.4 GHz band, local radio regulations may impose a number of limitations to the use of wireless communication equipment.To comply with such regulations, MPCI3A-20/R WIRELESS LAN CARD is marketed with dedicated channel-sets with a number of factory-programmed channels identified by the following acronyms:•ETS for countries that adhere to the regulations as defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI),•FCC for countries that adhere to the regulations as defined by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC),•FR for France, and•JP for Japan.Data Rate High 11 Mb/sMedium 5.5 Mb/sStandard 2 Mb/sLow 1 Mb/sThe cards use an automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism.WireLAN.book  Page 7  Tuesday, February 5, 2002  4:02 PM
