[Final Draft—Nortel Confidential]
Preface
Introduction
The Nortel Networks Wireless LAN Access Point 2220 (Access Point 2220) is an
access point that provides transparent, wireless high-speed data communications
between the wired LAN and fixed, portable or mobile devices equipped with an
802.11a/802.11b (or A only card or B only card) wireless adapter employing the
same radio modulation.
This solution offers fast, reliable wireless connectivity with considerable cost
savings over wired LANs (which include long-term maintenance overhead for
cabling). Using 802.11a,11b technology, the Access Point 2220 can easily replace
a 10 Mbps Ethernet connection or seamlessly integrate into a 10/100 Ethernet
LAN.
