4 Introduction The D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G DWL-G132 Wireless G USB Adapter is an 802.11b/802.11g high-performance,convenient Plug & Play USB 2.0 solution that brings wireless networking to your laptop or desktop PC. With a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 54Mbps (108Mbps* in Turbo mode) you can connect to a wireless network at home, at the office or at any wireless hotspot. Now you can stay connected wherever you are and wherever you go. The DWL-G132 is Wi-Fi compliant, meaning that it can connect and interoperate with other 802.11b or 802.11g Wi-Fi-compliant wireless routers, access points and adapters. The DWL-G132 connects to any available USB port on a laptop or desktop Windows -based computer and also includes a USB cradle. With the optional USB cradle, the DWL-G132 can be positioned virtually anywhere at a workstation to achieve the best available wireless signal reception - whether that workstation is in your office, on your deck or patio, by the pool, at the local coffee shop, or in an airport terminal while waiting to board your next flight. The adapter works with Microsoft Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems to ensure that you’ll be up and running on a wireless network in just a matter of seconds. Using its default settings, the DWL-G132 automatically connects to other D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G TM wireless products as soon as it’s active. TM *Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and evironmental factors lower actual data throughput rate. The DWL-G132 has the newest, strongest and most advanced security features available today. When used with other 802.11 WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and 802.1x compatible products in a network with a RADIUS server, the security features include: WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access which authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast, the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be changed manually.) 5 For home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network, the security for the DWL-G132, used in conjunction with other WPA-compatible 802.11 products, will still be much stronger than ever before. Utilizing the Pre-Shared Key mode of WPA, the DWL-G132 will obtain a new security key every time it connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your encryption information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the DWL-G132, you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communication. Introduction (continued) 802.1x: Authentication which is a first line of defense against intrusion. In the authentication process, the Authentication Server verifies the identity of the client attempting to connect to the network. Unfamiliar clients would be denied access. 6 Features and Benefits ** 3 Environmental factors may adversely affect range. User-friendly configuration and diagnostic utilities. Supports Infrastructure networks via an access point and Peer-to-Peer communication in Ad-Hoc mode. Connects at up to 328 feet indoors 3 .


1 year warranty.
2 Using a USB 1.1 port will adversely affect throughput. 1 Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors lower actual data throughput rate. Compact size for placement anywhere.
Convenience of Plug & Play installation.
Fully 802.11b/802.11g compatible.
Powered by the USB port; no external power source is required.
USB 2.0 standard 2 .
Better Security with 802.1x and WPA - In addition to 64-,128-bit WEP encryption, you can also securely connect to a wireless network using 802.1x for wireless authentication, as well as WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) providing you a much higher level of security for your data an…

TCB Review Questions for (D-Link Wireless USB Adapter, KA2DWLG132B1) -EMC- Question #1 : P49 of users manual FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: T his equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying R F exposure compliance. My concern is “there has no specific operation instructions inside the manual” a typical proper wording will look like this: This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This device was tested for typical lap held operations with the device contacted directly to the human body to the back side of the Tablet PC. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements avoid direct contact to the transmitting antenna during transmitting. Question #2 : P6 of test report stats: NOTE: 1. This is a supplementary report of RF931027L05, the difference is changing the brand name, Model name, Product name, Applicant and adding Cradle. Please confirm if this is a change ID application or it is intended as an original device? If this is an original device then please delete the above mentioned sentence. -SAR- Question #3: P16 and 17. Power drift calculation is not correct and please explain why power after test is higher than power before test (Battery been charged during test?) Question #4 : P16 & 17 of SAR test report, SAR test summary table is not matching the test data show on the test plots (refer to P39 to 52). Please make necessary correction. Question #5: P33 to 37 The EUT photos shown on the SAR report is different from EUT photos shown in the External photos file. Please clarify and make necessary change. Question #6: P39 to 52 indicated test was conducted on “Date/Time: 10/29/04” but liquid was measured on 2004/11/01 (see P20). This violates the FCC supplement C measurement guideline. Supplement C require that the liquid been measured on the same as test performed. Please check and make new test if require. The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information within 60 days of the original e-mail date may result in application dismissal and forfeiture of the filing fee. Also, please note that partial responses increase processing time and should not be submitted.
