BroadCom BCM94312HMG DW1397 Half Mini PCI-Express PCIe Wireless WLAN Wifi Card for Dell KW770 FR016

BCM43xx AirForce?54g® 802.11a/b/g PCI Express® Transceiver 

Designed for client devices based on the PCI Express architecture, the Broadcom BCM43xx is a high-performance 802.11a/g baseband processor with an integrated media access controller (MAC). The highly-integrated solution delivers superior performance, range and ease-of-use in a small, cost-effective package -providing new levels of design flexibility for wireless-enabled notebook PCs, printers and other client devices.

PCI Express is a state-of-the-art bus architecture that addresses the needs of next-generation computing and communications products. Whereas today’s embedded applications push the limits of the parallel PCI architecture, PCI Express uses serial interconnect technology to deliver higher bit rates that are better suited for performance-intensive multimedia applications. The PCI Express architecture also offers greater scalability, due to its low-cost, low pin-count design and software compatibility with existing PCI infrastructure.

The BCM94312HMGB features a shared antenna system and offers comprehensive Bluetooth and Wi-Fi software to streamline the design and manufacturing of notebooks, Netbooks and UMPCs.

Features:

• Provides high-performance 802.11g or 802.11a/g when paired with the appropriate radio solution
• All CMOS design reduces size, cost and power consumption
• Offers BroadRange?technology to provide up to 50% greater Wi-Fi coverage
• Supports Broadcom’s 125 High Speed Mode?for greater network throughput, and SecureEasySetup?software for push-button setup and security
