Product Highlights |
Adherent to the IEEE
802.11g standard, the PLANET WL-U356A provides simple, reliable,
high-speed wireless connections for both desktop and laptop users. By
combining two state-of-the-art technologies-USB 2.0 and 802.11g, the
gadget delivers data at speed up to 54Mbps, five times the speed of
existing 802.11b devices, and spares the efforts of opening up the case
of your desktop computer.
The WL-U356A provides an external antenna connector. It takes advantage
of the flexibility and convenience of USB connections without
sacrificing performance. Support of 64, 128 and 256-bit WEP encryption
plus WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) high-level encryption keep your
wireless communications from unauthorized access and ensure secure data
transfer.
The WL-U356A supports software AP function, which can turn the USB
adapter into a compact Access Point. The USB adapter is also backward
compatible with 802.11b products, so both 11b and 11g clients can reside
on the same network. Easy installation and hot-plugging offers full
mobility and high availability, making the device a perfect choice for
users who are getting tired of running cables or in constant need of
wireless access.

Product Applications |
|
Infrastructure
For some environments with limitations on running
Ethernet cables around, simply install the WL-U356A on your desktop or
laptop, and users thus can get connected to the wired Ethernet through a
wireless access point to access the network resources within the
coverage of wireless signals. The installation of multiple access points
to enlarge the coverage of wireless signals and can ensure seamless
network access for mobile users. |

|
Software AP
This feature converts the WL-U356A into a compact
wireless access point immediately, and this can create an instant
wireless network, which spares the additional costs of purchasing a
wireless access point. |

 |
|
|
|
Ad-Hoc
Need connecting several desktop PC or notebooks
wirelessly? Configuring all the wireless adapters to Ad-Hoc mode without
wireless access point is the easiest and costly way to meet this demand. |
