• Up to 2x greater range
• IEEE 802.11a/b/g and Draft-N compliant
• WiFi Personal Area Network capabilities
• Industry-leading power consumption
• Wireless support for Intel® Active Management Technology
• Advanced security via 802.11i
• Easy-to-use Intel® PROSet v12.0 WLAN Software
• Support for Cisco Compatible Extensions* v4
• Performance-optimized with Connect with Intel® Centrino® processor technology certified Access Points | Feature | Benefit | | Performance, Flexibility, and Mobility | Over 5X Bandwidth increase
Up to 300 Mbps2 Draft-N1 receive data rates compared to 54 Mbps for 802.11a/b/g solutions | Minimizes the time needed to transfer large files and enables applications such as High Definition (HD) video streaming, Voice over IP (VoIP), and multi-player gaming | Up to 2X greater range
MIMO, diversity, and support for up to two antennas enable better wireless reception at the same distance when compared to 802.11a/b/g solutions | Reduces the number of “dead zones,” network re-connects, and dropped data packets; dramatically improving connectivity throughout the home and enabling more consistent coverage in the enterprise | Intel® My WiFi Technology
Wireless Personal Area Network solution for connectivity to consumer electronic devices | Enables wireless connectivity to selected WiFi-enabled consumer devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, or game players for file sharing, file syncing, or file streaming activities | Industry-leading power consumption
Optimized power modes (sleep states) reduce power consumption during periods of inactivity | Reduced WLAN power consumption results in longer platform battery life3 for greater utility, enjoyment, and convenience | | PCIe* Mini Card and Half Mini Card form factor | Support for the PCIe Mini Card form factor enables the Intel® WiFi Link 5100 to be designed into existing laptops while support for the PCIe Half Mini Card form factor enables thinner and smaller laptops | | Manageability and Security | Intel® Active Management Technology
Asset management, remote system diagnostics, network protection, and network security technology | Provides IT managers the capability to remotely discover, heal, and protect wireless notebooks regardless of the functional state of the operating system which can result in reduced on-site support costs | Advanced Security via 802.11
Wireless security supporting AES encryption | Ensures enterprise wireless networks are protected from unauthorized access via stronger authentication and encryption mechanisms | Intel® PROSet v12.0
Intel WLAN management software | Simplifies client deployments and allows remote management of wireless settings and profiles by IT managers | | Interoperability | IEEE 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N compliant
Compliant to the existing IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g standards; 802.11n compliance expected when the standard is ratified | Enables interoperability with other IEEE-based Wireless Access Points and Wireless network adapters | Support for Cisco Compatible Extensions* v4
Cisco Centralized Key Management, Call Admission Control, Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD), and Voice Metrics | Helps prevent delays in VoIP calls when roaming between Access Points; enables improved network diagnostics | | Connect with Intel® Centrino® processor technology Intel certification that focuses on interoperability between IEEE 802.11 Draft-N1 devices | Selection of Access Points with the Connect with Intel® Centrino® processor technology label ensures that both the Access Point and the Intel Centrino laptop has passed numerous interoperability tests |
