SPEEDLAN 3i

3 Mbps Wireless Ethernet LAN
Access Point & Adapter PC Card Type II

The Wave Wireless Networking SPEEDLAN 3i Access Point
and PCMCIA Wireless LAN adapter for portable computers
delivers the highest performance available today. Capable of
delivering data rates up to 3 Mbps with throughput up to
2.5 Mbps, the SPEEDLAN 3i provides an unparalleled
combination of speed, performance, and economics.

Each SPEEDLAN 3i can link up to 60 portable computers or
data terminals equipped with a SPEEDLAN 3i Wireless LAN
adapter to the corporate Ethernet backbone. In a typical
configuration, up to fifteen SPEEDLAN 3i Access Points can
be linked on the same Ethernet. SPEEDLAN 3i operates in the
2.4 GHz ISM band. It uses frequency hopping spread spectrum
technology to deliver reliable, secure, and fast communications.

The SPEEDLAN 3i can provide even more advanced security
features using Wave Wireless Networking optional DES
encryption support feature. It incorporates Wave Wireless
Networking unique QIK Roaming, and QAM modulation
technologies; enabling SPEEDLAN 3i to outperform systems
relying on older technologies. SPEEDLAN 3i is the best
choice for today's mobile user.
