Belkin G Plus MIMO Wireless Networking Line Delivers 1000 Feet of Range; Consumers Searching for Wider Coverage Can Look to the First True MIMO(TM) Products under $100.COMPTON, Calif. -- Belkin brings to consumers its new Wireless G Plus MIMO (Multiple Input/Multiple Output) Pronounced "my-mo," it is the use of multiple transmitters and receivers (multiple antennas) on wireless devices for improved performance. line, giving them wider wireless Internet coverage. Powered by Airgo Networks' True MIMO technology, Wireless G Plus MIMO is a smart radio technology that enhances the 802.11g wireless standard by providing increased speed, coverage, and reliability for wireless systems. This line will be available in August 2005 in North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. . Ideal for homes with multiple wireless-enabled computers, Wireless G Plus MIMO provides a wider coverage area for downloading music from the Internet, sharing photos, and gaming online. Its design helps combat distortion and interference, allowing the Belkin products to send data streams farther and more reliably. Benefits: --1) Up to 1000 ft. wireless range --2) 10x faster wireless speed than 802.11b --3) Improved resistance to interference from neighboring Wi-Fi(R) systems and other 2.4GHz devices --4) Improved performance with 802.11b and 802.11g devices whether employed at the client, AP, or both. --5) Does not drop to the lowest common networking speed in mixed-mode environments --6) Seamless compatibility with 802.11b and 802.11g Belkin utilizes True MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) from Airgo Networks in its G Plus MIMO products. True MIMO is the first technology to address the issues of coverage, speed, and interference in larger homes and offices. True MIMO is a smart-antenna technique that uses multiple radios and antennas to transmit and receive wireless signals. It reaches a step further than other smart-antenna technologies by transmitting separate signals on each radio through multiple antennas. As a result, Belkin's G Plus MIMO products with True MIMO technology create a robust wireless connection while providing a larger coverage area with the bandwidth and quality of service needed to run advanced applications, such as streaming video A one-way video transmission over a data network. It is widely used on the Web as well as company networks to play video clips and video broadcasts. Computers in home networks stream video to digital media hubs connected to a home theater. or Voice over IP (VoIP). The Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO line includes: --Router (F5D9230-4 - MSRP MSRP Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price MSRP Message Session Relay Protocol MSRP Multi-Species Recovery Plan (US Fish & Wildlife Service) MSRP Member of the Society for Radiological Protection (UK) $99.99) --Notebook Card (F5D9010 - MSRP $79.99) --USB Adapter (F5D9050 - MSRP $89.99) (Available December 2005) About Belkin Corporation Belkin Corporation, the global leader in connectivity solutions, offers a range of innovations for the computer, electronics, and mobile consumer. With a diverse and far-reaching product mix consisting of home and enterprise networking The networking infrastructure in a large enterprise with multiple computer systems and networks of different types is extraordinarily complex. Due to the myriad of interfaces that are required, much of what goes on has little to do with the real data processing of the payroll and orders. , audio video solutions, KVM (K Virtual Machine) A version of the Java Virtual Machine for small devices with limited memory. See J2ME. See also KVM switch. KVM - Keyboard Video Mouse (keyboard/video/mouse) and peripheral sharing, power protection and cabling, as well as USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. and FireWire(R) devices, Belkin extends its reach to Bluetooth(TM), cellular, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) A handheld computer for managing contacts, appointments and tasks. It typically includes a name and address database, calendar, to-do list and note taker, which are the functions in a personal information manager (see PIM). , iPod(R), and other solutions for mobile computing Using a computing device while in transit. Mobile computing implies wireless transmission, but wireless transmission does not necessarily imply mobile computing. Fixed wireless applications use satellites, radio systems and lasers to transmit between permanent objects such as buildings . Belkin has introduced multiple types of messaging services using VoIP technology to allow users to send or receive email, voice mail, faxes, and mobile text messages through one IP-based portal, from any computer and web-enabled device. Belkin products are available through www.belkin.com as well as through a network of major distributors, resellers, and superstores. |
