WLAN 802.11a/b/g Smart OEM Module, 2.4/5GHz and External Antenna
USB 1.1 (12Mbps), (2) UART RS232C serial ports, Built-In TCP/IP stack, 9 GPIO

This smart programmable module is designed to allow OEMs to easily connect any device with a serial port to an 802.11a/b/g wireless network. Radio module control can be done via the serial commands or a browser based configuration, without the need for custom drivers. Also, the 802.11a 5GHz capabilities allow it to be used in enterprise environments such as hospitals, where interference from 2.4GHz devices like microwave ovens must be minimized. With a built-in powerful 32-bit processor, 16MB RAM memory, 8MB flash memory, and built-in TCP/IP stack, it can be used for virtually all types of embedded wireless networking client applications.

Feature Highlights include:
Low Power Consumption
Multiple High-Speed I/O Ports
General Purpose I/Os
Enterprise Level Security
Superior Roaming Capabilities
Linux Programmability
Serial Port Emulator
Easy Software Management

Low Power Consumption:
Consumes about 280mA of current on average, with a sleep mode usage of just 65mA. This low power consumption is ideal for battery operated mobile devices, but is also desirable for any type of embedded application.
Multiple High-Speed I/O Ports:
This includes two serial ports that operate at speeds up to 921.6Kbps. In addition, it includes a USB 1.1 (12Mbps) port, an SPI port (up to 25MHz), an IIC port and a dedicated console serial port for added flexibility in connectivity applications (the USB, SPI and IIC ports require user-written Linux software).
General Purpose I/Os:
Provides 9 general purpose I/Os that can be used for special system functions (for example, modem controls and status LEDs) or for user-defined functions. Each of the GPIOs can be set as an input or an output.
Enterprise Level Security:
Includes extensive security features that make it suitable for use on enterprise networks. These features include WPA2 (802.11i), WPA, and WEP wireless security plus PSK or 802.1X authentication with TTLS, TLS, LEAP, PEAP, and EAP-FAST. For added security, the module also supports access control lists, protocol enable/disable, configuration passwords, and SNMP community name configuration. In addition, its 802.11a capabilities allow it to be used on the relatively uncrowded 5GHz ISM band to provide an additional level of security.
Superior Roaming Capabilities:
Any serial device server can provide a good wireless connection with a single access point. But mobile devices often need to be able to rapidly switch been multiple access points as they move throughout a building or campus environment. This is a complex process that must be executed quickly without data loss or service interruptions. This incorporates the proven Silex roaming capabilties that are being used on some of the world's largest 802.11 wireless networks.
Linux Programmability:
It is a powerful 32-bit computer with a flash memory file system and the Linux operating system. These capabilities alllow a use to add custom capabilities such as protocol conversion into the module using standard Linux programming tools. Because of its extensive I/O capabilities, can even be used as a very small single board computer to provide all of the intelligence needed to control your device.
