OVERVIEW
The new EZ Connect™MIMO 802.11g MIMO Wireless Cardbus
Adapter (SMCWCB-GM) enables you to connect to 802.11g or
802.11b wireless networks at home, at the office or at public
hotspots.
The SMCWCB-GM provides the speed, coverage, and security
expected by today's wireless users when they communicate,
download or upload large files, stream audio, video or use other
bandwidth-intensive applications. The SMCWCB-GM is based on
an advanced Ralink MIMO G chipset that is compliant with the
IEEE 802.11g standard and certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. This
MIMO Wireless Cardbus Adapter when used in its MIMO mode
with a compatible MIMO router or access point, is 20 times
faster than older 802.11b wireless networking devices and yet is
100% backwards compatible with them.
The SMCWCB-GM significantly increases the performance of
mixed-mode (802.11b and 802.11g) actual networks and in MIMO-
only networks – provides up to 35% more throughput.
