Item Specification
Type of network Integrated Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 (802.11agn 2x2 and Atheros XSPAN
801.11bgn devices conform to IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b/g, and 802.11n, Wi-Fi based*.
Transfer rate (Automatic switching) IEEE802.11 a and g: 54 Mbps maximum data rate; IEEE802.11n:
300 Mbps maximum data rate
Active frequency • 802.11n: 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz
• 802.11b/g: 2400~2473 MHz
• 802.11a: 4900 ~ 5850 MHz
Typical operating distances** • 802.11a: 40 ft. (12 m) @ 54 Mbps; 300 ft. (91 m) @ 6 Mbps
• 802.11b: 100 ft. (30 m) @ 11 Mbps; 300 ft. (91 m) @ 1 Mbps
• 802.11g: 100 ft. (30 m) @ 54 Mbps; 300 ft. (91 m) @ 1 Mbps
• 802.11n: Estimated double the operating distance of 802.11g and 802.11a in their
respective frequencies.
Number of channels
• 802.11a: 8 independent channels
• 802.11b/g: 11 channels, 3 non-overlapping channels
• 802.11n: Channel bonding takes two of the non-overlapping 20MHz channels and
combines it into one 40MHz channel. It is actually 12 non-overlapping channels
with channel bonding and 24 without. Also, it is 1 non-overlapping channel in
2.4GHz when channel bonding is used
Security Encryption Types - WEP, TKIP, AES***, WPA 1.0 and WPA 2.0 compliant
Encryption Key lengths Supported: 64 bits and 128 bits
