Atheros AR9285 AR5B95 150Mbps 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless Mini PCI-E WiFi Card
Description:
The single-stream feature enables a new class of Wi-Fi devices that deliver performance enhancements over the existing 802.11g technology, at comparable price points. Align solutions are forward compatible to higher-performance, multi-stream, MIMO ased 802.11n, and are available in reference designs to serve the networking, PC and consumer electronics markets. The enhanced throughput of Align 1 tream solutions improves network efficiency by occupying the wireless channel for shorter periods than slower 11g devices reducing congestion and increasing capacity for additional wireless devices. Align employs all the mandatory and select optional features of the 11n specification, and Atheros advanced radio design techniques, to effectively double the wireless coverage over legacy WLAN.The Atheros AR9285 single-chip PCI Express (PCIe) solution is a highly integrated MAC/Baseband/Radio solution that is backward compatible to 802.11g and forward compatible to 11n. It enables PC OEMs to cost-effectively migrate their 11g-based notebooks to the enhanced, future-proofed performance of Align. Targeting the growing value PC market segment with 150 Mbps PHY rate capability, Align is the ideal technology for PC users seeking robust throughput, enhanced range and extended battery life for data networking applications such as Web surfing, instant messaging and e-mail.
