Product Overview:

The Cisco® WUSB200 Wireless-G Business USB Network Adapter installs in most desktop PCs, tower PCs, and notebook PCs, and lets you put your computer almost anywhere in the building without the cost and hassle of running network cables.

RangeBooster technology, a compatible add-on to standard Wireless-G, can nearly double the range of your wireless network and increase its throughput by up to 35 percent. Unlike ordinary wireless technologies that are confused by signal reflections, RangeBooster uses two smart receivers at each end to detect and decode reflected signals at distances where standard technologies give up. You'll find that "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area are reduced, too.

The advanced security features make this solution ideal for your business. Advanced wireless security using Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2) with up to 256-bit encryption, and Wireless Security Monitoring give your business the visibility and protection it needs. Used when a Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point is present, Wireless Security Monitoring alerts you of possible wireless intruders and vulnerabilities in the wireless network.
