3Com OC Wireless Adapter 11G USB For simple, reliable, high-speed 802.11g wireless connections for both desktop and notebook users, choose the 3Com® OfficeConnect® Wireless 11g USB Adapter. Users can roam the office while accessing network resources, the Internet, and e-mail at speeds up to 54 Mbps—ideal for multimedia or other high-bandwidth applications—at distances up to 100 meters (328 feet). The USB adapter works with the 3Com OfficeConnect Wireless 11g Access Point and Cable/DSL Gateway to create a powerful, high-speed all-wireless network in minutes for home and branch offices, remote sites, and classrooms. The 11g products are backward-compatible with 11b products, so both 11b and 11g clients can reside on the same network.

The adapter offers the flexibility and convenience of USB connections without sacrificing performance. It's hinged antenna works with a variety of desktop and notebook designs. To protect wireless connections, the USB adapter supports WPA encryption and 40/64- and 128-bit WEP shared-key encryption. The Wireless Card Manager feature creates profiles for mobile users that reflect specific wireless LAN settings for each place they travel: users just select the proper profile and they are configured for connection. Dynamic rate shifting automatically matches the best connection speed in response to physical and traffic conditions so wireless connections stay reliable.
