that is limited by cabling requirements.

dynamic range shifting to lower speeds due to distance or operating limitations in an environment
with a lot of electromagnetic interference.
The WG311T Wireless PCI Adapter provides reliable, standards-based 802.11b 11 Mbps Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN) connectivity that is protected with industry-standard security. In
addition, it offers the faster speeds of the 802.11g standard. The WG311T works with Windows
98SE, Me, 2000, and XP operating systems.

The WG311T Wireless PCI Adapter provides the following features:
• Reliable IEEE 802.11b/g standards-based wireless technology.
• Supports roaming between access points when configured in Infrastructure mode.
• 108 Mbps high speed data transfer. Wireless nodes negotiate to operate in the optimal data
transfer rate. In a noisy environment or when the distance between the wireless nodes is far,
the wireless nodes automatically fall back to operate at lower transfer rates.
