The DWL-G120 is a high-performance 802.11g wireless LAN USB adapter that connects your computer to a high-speed wireless LAN. This adapter simply plugs to your computer through a fast USB 2.0 interface to provide up to 55Mbps wireless speed. With industry standard interoperability, backward compatibility with 802.11b devices and plug-and-play installation, this adapter is an ideal solution for notebook and laptop PC users needing fast and standard mobile network connection.
Up to 54Mbps Transmission Speed
The DWL-G120 provides speeds of up to 54Mbps when used with other 802.11g wireless devices. This compares favorably with 802.11b adapters that offer only 11Mbps transmission.
Compatible With 802.11b
Like the 802.11b devices, the DWL-G120 uses a single 2.4GHz wireless frequency, eliminating the complexity of dualband networking. 802.11g's compatibility with existing wireless LAN standards means that you do not need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g's speed when you mix 802.11b with 802.11g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate.
Easy Migration to Higher Bandwidth
By maintaining compatibility with your existing wireless network equipment, this adapter lets you upgrade to a higher speed at the pace you want. The DWL-G120 and other 802.11g standard devices can be gradually added to your network, while the rest of your older network remains perfectly connected.
Adjustable Antenna
With its unique flip-up, adjustable antenna design, and the long USB cable that is included with the network adapter, you can position the DWL-G120 adapter virtually anywhere on a flat surface to achieve the best available wireless signal reception.
Network Security
Security is an issue when data is transmitted without the wires. In the air, transmitted data can be easily intercepted if not well protected by a security scheme. The DWL-G120 provides the necessary security, using the enhanced 64/128- bit industry-standard WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption protocol.
Fast USB 2.0 Interface
The DWL-G120 is equipped with a fast USB 2.0 mini port and a USB cable that connects to your computer, providing data throughput at up to 480Mbps between the network adapter and the host computer. That is about 40 times faster than the earlier USB 1.1 specification, allowing you to take advantage of the high 54Mbps wireless speed that this adapter provides.
With USB hot swap and plug-and-play capabilities, the DWL-G120 provides you with fast and easy connectivity to wireless devices and users, no matter if they use the 802.11b or the fast 802.11g standard. Portable Pocket-sized
With its antenna folded up, the DWL-G120 is an attractive, portable wireless device. It can fit into your pocket or carrying case, allowing you to easily carry it around.
