Atheros AR5007EG information
Athros is the recognized worldwide technology leader of the wireless systems market. Atheros AR5007EG - the industry's most highly-integrated, cost-effective 802.11g PCI Express™ (PCIe) solution. It is the world's only design to incorporate the complete wireless LAN (WLAN) solution, including the low noise amplifier (LNA) and power amplifier (PA), in a low-cost, single-chip digital CMOS design. This extraordinary integration significantly reduces the cost of implementing Wi-Fi technology in desktop and value-priced notebook PCs - removing previous cost barriers to enabling wireless in these more price-sensitive PC market sectors.
Its 2-layer minicard design delivers a 50 percent reduction in the printed circuit board (PCB) cost and a 25 percent reduction in rest of bill-of-materials (RBOM) component count over the previous generation's 4-layer design.
The Atheros AR5007EG supports the industry's most robust security standard, IEEE 802.11i. An AES encryption engine is built into the hardware of all Atheros 802.11a/g and 802.11g chipsets, allowing real-time encryption with no performance degradation in computing, consumer electronics and wireless broadband applications. Atheros' WLAN solutions also support wireless multimedia and draft 802.11e Quality of Service (QoS) specifications - providing advanced features for delivering wired-quality video(video card driver) and audio(sound card driver) content via a wireless connection.
Driver information
Compared to other drivers, Atheros drivers are known to provide 50% more throughput at range. When installing the driver, users have to check and ascertain that they are using all the appropriate drivers.
It is possible to operate the Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter with any other wireless device provided that it comes certified for WI-FI Protected Setup. This enhancement then makes the driver easy to add on to numerous devices such as digital cameras, gaming devices, mp3's and digital media players to their JumpStart established personal wireless network.
