Adherent to the IEEE 802.11g standard, the PLANET
WL-U356 provides simple, reliable, high-speed
wireless connections for both desktop and laptop
users. By combining with 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.
WL-U356 contains an internal patch antenna. 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.
WL-U356 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. |

Application] |
Infrastructure
For some environments with limitations on
running Ethernet cables around, simply install the
WL-U356
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. |
|
|
|
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 application. |
|
|
|
Software AP
This feature converts the WL-U356 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. |
