SMC’s EZ Connect Wireless PC Card is an 11Mbps wireless network

adapter that seamlessly integrates with existing Ethernet networks to

support applications for mobile users in the office or at home. This

solution offers a high data rate and reliable wireless connectivity

with considerable cost savings over wired LANs (which include long-

term maintenance overhead for cabling). Just install enough wireless

access points to cover your network area, plug wireless cards into

your notebooks, and start networking.

Using this card in conjunction with a wireless access point, such

as SMC2655W Wireless Access Point, you can create an instant

network that integrates seamlessly with 10Mbps Ethernet LANs.

Moreover, moving or expanding your network is as easy as

moving or installing additional access points – no wires!
