About TOSHIBA Wireless Solution
The Wireless LAN Module is a wireless network Module that complies with the IEEE 802.11 standard on wireless LANs
(Revision B/G). The Wireless LAN Module supports data rates up to 54 Mbit/s.
y Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. This means that your Wireless hardware will communicate with
other vendors’ IEEE 802.11 B/G compliant wireless LAN product.
y Fully compatible with any of other wireless LAN system based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)/
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology that complies with the IEEE 802.11 standard on
wireless LANs (Revision B/G).
Wireless Interoperability
The TOSHIBA Wireless LAN products are designed to be interoperable with any Wireless LAN products that is based on
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology, and is
compliant to:
y The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision B/G), as defined and approved by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers.
y The Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) B/G certification as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
Wireless LAN and your Health
Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted
by Wireless LAN devices however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for
example mobile phones.
Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Wireless LAN is safe for use by consumers. These standards and
recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or
responsible representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:
y Using the Wireless LAN equipment on board of aeroplanes, or
y In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or identified as
harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or environment (e.g.
airports), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Wireless LAN device prior to turning on the equipment.
NOTE
Bluetooth™ and Wireless LAN devices operate within the same radio frequency range and may interfere with one another.
If you use Bluetooth™ and Wireless LAN devices simultaneously, you may occasionally experience a less than optimal
network performance or even lose your network connection.
If you should experience any such problem, immediately turn off your Bluetooth or Wireless LAN device.
