This wireless LAN solution is designed for both the home user and small businesses—and it is scalable so that users can be added and new network features can be enabled as networking needs grow. WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks (defined in IEEE Std 802.11, 1999 Edition) that encrypts data sent over radio waves. The use of the WEP key is optional and can be enabled or disabled. If the network being connecting to has enabled WEP, WEP must also be enabled in the network profile and the WEP key must be set to match the WEP key used by the network. Otherwise, it is impossible to connect to the network.

A LAN is composed of two or more computers that are connected to each other to share files or common equipment such as a printer or an Internet connection. A wireless LAN provides the same functionality of a wired network, but it eliminates the need to install networking cables and other networking equipment. Not only is a wireless LAN easier to deploy, but it also allows for roaming. Features and Requirements An IEEE 802.11 based wireless LAN includes the following features: l Support for IEEE 802.11g draft specification l Support for IEEE 802.11b standard l 2.4-GHz band operation l Network data rate of up to 54 Mbit/s l Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption The Company 54g enabled device works with any Wi-Fi CERTIFIED® base station or wireless client adapter. file:///P|/User%20Manuals/HP%20XP%20WLAN%20Card/intro.htm (2 of 3) [1/30/03 10:11:16 PM] Introduction: Company 54g Wireless LAN (WLAN) User Manual Back to top Back to Contents Ccopyright and Trademark Information. file:///P|/User%20Manuals/HP%20XP%20WLAN%20Card/intro.htm (3 of 3) [1/30/03 10:11:16 PM] Completing the Setup: Company 54g Wireless LAN (WLAN) User Manual Back to Contents Completing the Setup: Company 54g Wireless LAN (WLAN) User Manual NOTE—Before starting, obtain the required network information from the network administrator or the wireless access point installer (see The Company 54g WLAN Solution in Introduction). Modes of Operation Modes of Operation A wireless LAN can be configured for two different modes of operation: infrastructure network and computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network. Whereas each mode has its advantages, one mode may be more appropriate than the other, depending on the location and type of network connection. Infrastructure Mode The key difference between the infrastructure type of network and an ad hoc network is that the infrastructure network includes a base station (host) computer that has a built-in wireless network adapter and is connected to a wireless access point (AP). This functionality allows computers on the infrastructure wireless LAN to access the resources and tools of the wired LAN, including Internet access, e-mail, file transfers, and printer sharing. Characteristics Networked computers communicate with each other through a dedicated AP. All data transmitted between the computers on this wireless LAN passes through the AP. Advantages l Extended range. The access point extends the range of the wireless LAN. Each computer can communicate with other computers equipped by wireless networks that are within the range of the access point. l Roaming. As the user moves around the home or office, the Company 54g enabled device determines the best access point to use to ensure continuous communication with the network. l Network connectivity. An access point can provide wireless LAN access to an existing wired network by bridging the two networks together. This gives users of the wireless LAN access to all the functions of a wired network—from file server access to e-mail and the Internet. Disadvantages Because the infrastructure mode offers more features, it requires additional components and setup time to deploy. file:///P|/User%20Manuals/HP%20XP%20WLAN%20Card/setup.htm (1 of 2 ) [1/30/03 10:11:18 PM] Completing the Setup: Company 54g Wireless LAN (WLAN) User Manual Requirements A base station computer having a wired connection to the Internet, a wireless network adapter, and a connection to an AP. Computer-to-Computer Mode A peer-to-peer (ad hoc) network is the easiest to deploy and is ideal for home use or in small offices. This mode allows the sharing of files with other employees, printing to a shared office printer, and access to the Internet through a shared modem. With ad hoc networking, however, the computer is only able to communicate wit…

MPE Calculation model# RSVLD-0506 HUMAN EXPOSURE STATEMENT Calculations can be made to predict RF field strength and power density levels around typical RF sources using the general equations (3) and (4) on page 19 of the following FCC document: “OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 - Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields”. These equations are generally accurate in the far field of an antenna but will over predict power density in the near field, where they could be used for making a “worst case” prediction. S = PG/4πR 2 (3) Where S = power density (in appropriate units, e.g. mW/cm 2 ) P = power input to the antenna (in appropriate units e.g. mW) G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to the isotropic radiator R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (appropriate units e.g. cm) or, S = EIRP/4πR 2 (4) Where EIRP = Equivalent Isotropically radiated power MPE WLAN 802.11b EIRP: 25.77dBm (377.578mW) Calculated at distance of 20cm Power density = 377.57 / (4 x pi x 20 2 ) = 0.075 mW/cm 2 Calculation for distance at which power density will be 1mW/cm 2 Distance = √ {377.57 / (4 x pi x 1)} = 5.48cm Limit: 1mW/cm 2 is the reference level for general public exposure according to the OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 Table 1.

Test report no.: EMC_928FCC15.247_2005_rev1 Issue date: 2005-06-07 Page 7 (45) 2.3 Summary of test results The radiated measurements are performed in vertical and horizontal plane in the frequency range from 9 kHz to 25 GHz in semi-anechoic chambers. The EUT is positioned on a non-conductive support with a height of 0.80 m above a conductive ground plane that covers the whole chamber. The receiving antennas are conform with specifications ANSI C63.2-1996 clause 15 and ANSI C63.4-2003 clause 4.1.5. These antennas can be moved over the height range between 1.0 m and 4.0m in order to search for maximum field strength emitted from EUT. The measurement distances between EUT and receiving antennas are indicated in the test setups for the various frequency ranges. For each measurement, the EUT is rotated in all three axes until the maximum field strength is received. The wanted and unwanted emissions are received by spectrum analyzers where the detector modes and resolution bandwidths over various frequency ranges are set according to requirement ANSI C63-4- 2003 clause 4.2. Antennas are conforming to ANSI C63.2-1996 item 15. 9 kHz - 30 MHz: Quasi Peak measurement, 9 kHz Bandwidth, loop antenna. 30 MHz – 1GHz: Quasi Peak measurement, 120 KHz Bandwidth, biconilog antenna >1GHz: Average, RBW 1MHz, VBW 10 Hz, wave-guide horn All measurement settings are according to FCC 15.35, 15.205, 15.209, 15.247 and the “Measurement guidelines for DSSS systems”.
