Belkin networking presents the 54g Wireless Network Access Point (WAP). The 54g WAP connects to your network switch and lets you join your wireless-equipped PCs to your wired network. It is based on breakthrough 54g technology that makes wireless file transfers and downloads faster than ever before. 54g technology provides you with networking speeds nearly five times faster than the current Wi-Fi (802.11b) standard. When connected to a gateway, the WAP can increase your network s coverage area and allow you to take advantagen peripherals, as well as a single Internet account among all your computers.

54g technology is the easiest wireless network to implement. The Access Point uses the wireless 54g 2.4GHz standard to offer you the widest working range up to 1800 and greater interoperability in mixed networking environments. 54g technology is backward-compatible with the 802.11b Wi-Fi networking standard, so it allows you to implement faster wireless technologies in combination with existing 802.11b Wi-Fi networks. An added Turbo Mode feature isolates your network from 802.11b wireless clients and allows your network to transmit data at the highest 54g data rate, 54Mbps.
