The Four-Port Station Adapter is a wireless LAN adapter that connects a
workgroup of up to four Ethernet-equipped workstations to the wireless LAN. The
Four-Port Station Adapter is transparent to the workgroup devices' hardware and
software, allowing plug-and-play installation.
The Four-Port Station Adapter enables connected workstations to communicate
with other wireless stations in the same cell coverage area, and to access all network
resources—such as file servers, wired stations, printers, and shared databases—via
the Access Point. The Four-Port Station Adapter also allows highly efficient and fast
wired communication among the four connected workstations.
Workstations that can be connected to the wireless LAN include PCs, X-Terminals,
and any other device that supports Ethernet. The unit is transparent to the
workgroup devices' hardware, software, and network operating system.
