WavePort WLU11 - network adapter

Compex's WavePort WLU11 USB wireless LAN adapter allows users to easily connect desktop systems to a wireless network without hassles. One of the truly Plug and Play out-of-box network solutions, the WLU11 takes advantage of the wireless technology, to share resources between the wired and wireless networks. Combining wireless connectivity with USB convenience, WavePort WLU11 delivers the industry-leading 11Mbps wireless LAN standard via the Universal Serial Bus (USB) for your wireless desktop clients. With selectable 64-bit or 128-bit private encryption, WavePort WLU11 ensures data privacy while transmitting over the 2.4GHz frequency band. Only the wireless clients configured with the same encryption key are able to retrieve the data from the open air. To guarantee reliable data transmission, WavePort WLU11 makes use of "chipping code" for every bit of data sent. In case of data corruption, WavePort WLU11 is capable of recovering the data without the need of retransmission. WavePort WLU11 supports both type of wireless architectures as specified by IEEE 802.11, the AdHoc and the Infrastructure architecture. It can either be configured in a Peer-to-Peer environment (AdHoc) without the use of any Wireless Access Point, or to work in conjunction with a Wireless Access Point (Infrastructure).
