5. Wireless networks
and frequency
bands
5.1. Wireless LAN
Most of the wireless local area computer networks
today are based on the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g standards.
These standards were developed by the IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) in
order to insure inter-operability between different
WLAN vendors. Refer to Table 5.1: Wireless LAN
standardsTable 5.1 for an overview of the different
standards:

5.2. Televic Confidea
wireless system
The wireless network of the Televic Confidea wireless
system is based on the 802.11 a/g standards.
Additional protocols have been added on top of the
802.11 a/g standards to provide high robustness
against interference from other wireless devices.
These additional protocols also ensure a guaranteed
quality of service for the audio streams on the
wireless network.
5.2.1. Frequency bands
The Confidea wireless system supports the following
frequency bands (refer to Table 5.2):

In the 2.4 GHz ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical)
band, there are 13 overlapping high-frequency
carriers available. Only 3 non-overlapping carriers are
available.
Allowed 2.4 GHz ISM band carriers In Europe :
all 13 carriers of 2.4 GHz ISM band may be used.
Note:
The 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands
are license free world wide.
However you must be aware of country
specific limitations and follow them.
