WLAN - 802.11a/b/g

As wireless LAN devices become mainstream (Desktops, Laptops, PDAs, PDA Phones), more and more embedded applications will seek to utilize this ubiquitous technology.

OEM Modules
If you are looking to integrate WiFi into your next wireless design project, we offer a multitude of bus interfaces and wireless protocols for most any embedded architecture. Our OEM Modular products are "OEM friendly" which means that we provide the engineering tools and documentation necessary to get you through the hardware and software challenges of wireless integration.
   
End-User Products
Ideal for system integrators and VARs that want to get right to the solution without the added design work, our broad-scope of End-User products makes it easy to get your wireless network up and running. These products
are "white-box friendly", hence you can brand (private label) them as your own product line.
   
To help decipher which WLAN technology is right for you,
our 802.11 Protocol Reference Table can help you choose
the right 802.11 protocol to fit your needs.
