SMC2835W
2.4GHz 54 Mbps Wireless Cardbus Adapter
The EZ Connect™ g 54Mbps Wireless Cardbus Adapter (SMC2835W) is another cutting
edge introduction in 2.4GHz wireless communication for your laptop. Designed for
both business and home users, this new adapter provides the speed, coverage, and
security expected by today’s wireless users. Based on the IEEE 802.11g draft standard,
the new EZ Connect g Wireless Cardbus Adapter is 5 times faster than the widely
used 802.11b wireless networking devices and is 100% compatible with existing 802.11b
wireless networks. The SMC2835W is extremely fast and can handle streaming video,
multimedia and all other bandwidth-intensive applications. Wireless clients can now
easily obtain instant, seamless high-speed network connection. The new and improved
SMC2835W significantly increases the performance of mixed-mode (802.11b and 802.11
g) networks and 802.11g-only networks - up to 3x more throughput in mixed-mode
networks and up to 50% throughput improvement in 802.11g-only networks.
The EZ Connect™ g Wireless Cardbus Adapter includes an EZ Installation Wizard that
enables quick and easy setup. Simply put the EZ Installation Wizard CD into your CD-
ROM drive, click on Install Driver/Utility Link, the wizard will perform the installation
automatically. Then plug in your EZ Connect g Wireless Cardbus Card into the PCMCIA
slot of your laptop, you are now ready to enjoy the freedom of wireless networking.
The new SMC2835W EZ Connect g Wireless Cardbus Adapter offers high-speed data
rate at up to 54Mbps. This adapter provides a high level of security by supporting
both 64/128-bit WEP encryption and the new Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). It also
supports 802.1x for user authentication to ensure only authorized users can access
the resources of the wireless network. Moreover, profile management software allows
the new wireless notebook adapter the ability to save multiple wireless settings
corresponding to different locations or networks. Furthermore, SMC2835W has a built-
in utility program for scanning all available Wireless Access Points on the network.
Combine all of these features with our free 24/7 technical support and you have a state-
of-the-art, technologically advanced wireless adapter to seamlessly integrate into a
new or existing wireless network.
