The Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG card is a standards-based and Wi-FI-certified wireless local area network solution that operates at up to 54Mbps.The PPM-Wireless has an SMA external connector to enable the selection of an antenna best suited for the application. Delivery is from stock to three weeks with price starting at $149.
