INTRODUCING D-LINK AIRPLUS – THE NEXT GENERATION OF WIRELESS NETWORKING

D-Link introduces another breakthrough in wireless connectivity – the D-Link AirPlus series of high-speed

networking products that offer data transfer rates up to 22Mbps, 802.11b compatibility, enhanced security

with 256-bit WEP Encryption, and easy installation. In addition to these groundbreaking products are an

extremely affordable broadband router, dual mode access point (802.11a and 802.11b), and new Gigabit

switches to round out a very exciting month for D-Link product releases. Read on for details…

DI-614+ - The DI-614+ is a wireless broadband router that allows users to share a

cable or DSL connection and create an 802.11b wireless network with data transfer

rates up to 22Mbps! An intelligent, Web-based set up wizard allows users to quickly

and securely connect computers to share high-speed Internet access and other

network resources. Plus, the DI-614+ includes a built-in 4-port switch for additional

connectivity options and offers 256-bit WEP encryption for a higher level of security

compared to standard 802.11b products. The DI-614+ also incorporates advanced

products) and can be configured to perform in any one of four modes – as a

wireless access point, as a point-to-point bridge with another access point, as a

point-to-multi-point wireless bridge, or as a wireless client. It also includes an

embedded DHCP server that once enabled will automatically assign IP addresses

to wireless clients eliminating the need for a separate DHCP server on the network.

The DWL-900AP+ also features 256-bit WEP encryption for a higher-level of

security compared to current 802.11b solutions.

DWL-650+ - The D-Link DWL-650+ is an enhanced 32-bit Card bus adapter that is

fully 802.11b compatible making it interoperable with all existing 802.11b compliant

performance is even greater – up to 22Mbps! The DWL-650+ also features 256-bit

WEP encryption for a higher level of security and includes a configuration utility to

discover available wireless networks and create and save detailed profiles of those

networks most often accessed.

fully 802.11b compatible making it interoperable with all existing 802.11b compliant
