Wireless LAN Dev ice s Co vered by this Document
This document is applicable to systems containing the following device:
• Intel® Du al Band Wireless-N 7260
Characteristics of the WLAN Device
• The WLAN devices are PCI Express Mini cards attached to the main board of the mobile computer.
• The WLAN devices operate in license-free RF band s, eliminating the need to procure
an FCC operating license. The WLAN operates in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific,
and Medical (ISM) RF band and the lower, middle, and upper bands of the 5GHz
Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U NII) bands.
• The WLAN devices are capable of four operating modes, IEEE802.11a,
IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802 .11n.
• The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operates (as applicable) at the maximum data
rate of 450 Mbps in IEEE802.11n mode (300 Mbps in this configuration); 54 Mbps
in IEEE802.11g mode; and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode.
• The WLAN devices support the following encryption methods - WEP,
TKIP, CKIP, and AES encryption.
• The Wireless LAN d evices are compliant with the following standards: WPA,
WPA2, CCX1.0, C C X2.0, CCX3.0, and CCX4.0.
