Wireless LAN uses radio frequencies to transmit and receive data between PC’s or other network devices without wires or cables. The applications of wireless LAN include independent networks (suitable for small or temporary peer-to-peer configurations) and infrastructure networks, offering fully distributed data connectivity via micro cells and roaming.

The WL-A14 Wireless LAN Access Point performance and reliability exceed the requirements of IEEE 802.11b standard. It can be used as a bridge to enable wireless network access in Ethernet environment.
