And the increased power level and control in the 3e-110 PC Card is no challenge for walls, ceilings or most obstacles. Its been installed aboard US Navy destroyers and proven its capability by allowing connectivity between decks and even through steel bulkheads."

Fully IEEE 802.11b-compliant, the card seamlessly operates in infrastructure mode with any WiFi® certified 802.11b or 802.11g wireless LAN access point.
