The D-Link Xtreme G
with enhanced 108 features the industry’s first default 108Mbps
"Dynamic Mode" that allows clients to always operate at the
highest possible speeds while automatically identifying and
recognizing other D-Link Xtreme G products for highest
performance capability and seamless access to the wireless
network in a homogenous environment.
Extensive
performance and interoperability testing using standard based
methods including NetIQ’s Chariot software reveals a significant
increase in performance of the D-Link Xtreme G over other
802.11g based competitors.
The D-Link Xtreme
G DI-624 with 108 Mbps upgrade employs five cutting-edge
hardware-based compression technologies to achieve a significant
boost in performance within the 2.4 GHz frequency range.
Packet
Bursting: The packet bursting technique puts more
data into a single transmission, allowing more raw data to be
stuffed into each packet and as a result not only delivers
much more data, but also executes this process with less
traffic on the network. Packet bursting transforms lengthy
binary code into simple equations, resulting in an overall
reduction in the number of 1s and 0s being sent over the
network. It is also the technique defined as one of the
methods for performance improvement in the IEEE 802.11e QOS
draft standard.
Fast
Frames: The fast frames technique enhances data
throughput by increasing the number of bits sent per data
frame and accelerating the timing of a data frame with a
dynamic transmit optimizations. This technology enhances the
Packet Bursting capability synergistically to provide
accelerated performance results. The fast frames technique is
also based on the 802.11e QOS draft standard.
Hardware
Compression and Encryption: Xtreme G uses the Atheros
AR5002 chipset which employs special engines to compress and
encrypt data. These hardware engines operate in real-time to
enhance throughput by implementing standard algorithms and
compressing data prior to transmission and after reception.
Multi-Channel Bonding: Multi-Channel Bonding embraces two
radio channels simultaneously. It collapses the available channels
from 12 to 6 for increased bandwidth on the available channels.
Single and double channels are not run at the same time. This
technology senses single channel and dual channel frames and
negotiates time-based solutions with priority on single channel
processing.
Select
Mode: Select Mode gives users the option of locking the
Xtreme G products into a Static mode (instead of the default
Dynamic mode) for even higher performance within a complete D-Link
108Mbps Xtreme G environment.
The D-Link 802.11g
DI-624 Xtreme G features robust security to protect the wireless
network from intruders, complying with the latest wireless
networking security protocols, including WEP encryption and
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) support for both 802.1x and WPA-PSK.
The DI-624 is also capable of supporting the government-grade
AES encryption and upcoming 802.11i standards.
In addition to being the industry’s fastest wireless network
solution, It includes management settings and policy-based
content filtering for advanced network management. Filters can
be set based on MAC address, IP address, URL and/or Domain Name.
The D-Link Xtreme G
DI-624 with 108 upgrade is ideal for creating a fast and affordable
wireless network, delivering the industry’s fastest wireless network
performance. D-Link Xtreme G is also the only 802.11g solution with
108Mbps mode that remains fully interoperable and compatible with
all 2.4GHz devices, capable of creating one homogenous network
environment for the multi-vendor environment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This 108 Mbps
firmware upgrade is currently available for revision C (1 antenna)
only. Firmware for upgrading to 108 Mbps is not yet available for
Revision A & B.
