Introduction

Some computers in this series are equipped with a

Wireless LAN mini card that is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct Sequence

Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal Frequency Division

Multiplexing radio technology that complies with the IEEE 802.11 Standard (Revision A, B and G).

■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9 and 6 Mbit/s (Revision A/B, B/G, A/B/G combo type).

■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbit/s

(Revision B).

■ Frequency Channel Selection (5 GHz:

Revision A/2.4 GHz: Revision B/G).

■ Roaming over multiple channels.

■ Card Power Management.

■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on 128 bit encryption algorithm (Intel module type).

■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on 256 bit encryption algorithm (Atheros module type).

Some computers in this series are equipped with an internal modem. The internal modem provides capability for data and fax communication. It supports V.90 (V.92). Refer to

V.90/V.92

section in

Appendix C. The speed of date transfer and fax depends on analog telephone line conditions. It has a modem jack for connecting to a telephone line. It is preinstalled as a standard device in some markets. Both of V.90 and V.92 are supported only in USA, Canada and Australia. Only V.90 is available in other regions.

Some computers in this series are equipped with

Bluetooth functions. Bluetooth wireless technology eliminates the need for cables between electronic devices such as computers and printers. Bluetooth provides fast, reliable, and secure wireless communication in a small space.

This switch turns the Wireless LAN and Blurtooth function on and off.
