Pros/Cons & More Info

This specification has been
extended into 802.11b.
Products that adhere to this
standard are considered "Wi-Fi
Certified." Eight available
channels. Less potential
for RF interference than
802.11b and 802.11g. Better
than 802.11b at supporting
multimedia voice, video and
large-image applications in
densely populated user
environments. Relatively
shorter range than 802.11b. Not
interoperable with 802.11b.
Products that adhere to this
standard are considered "Wi-Fi
Certified." Not interoperable
with 802.11a. Requires
fewer access points than
802.11a for coverage of large
areas. Offers high-speed
access to data at up to 300 feet
from base station. 14 channels
available in the 2.4GHz band
(only 11 of which can be used in
the U.S. due
to FCC regulations) with only
three non-overlapping
channels.
