802.11a/b/g Tri-Mode Dualband Wireless PCI Card
DWL-AG520

Powerful antenna with extension antenna cable
allows you to adjust the angle to get the best
transmission/reception range.
The D-Link Air XpertTM DWL-AG520 wireless PCI card is a high-performance, versatile and necessary desktop PC networking
solution for companies that need to quickly expand or reconfigure their wireless networks as their organization grows. This trimode,
dualband network card inserts into your desktop PC to provide you with a versatile way to wirelessly connect to any one
of three available wireless networks -- 802.11b and the newer, faster 802.11g and 802.11a that operate in two discrete, noninterfering
frequency bands, 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
Easiest Way to Expand
End-to-End Wireless Solution
54Mbps Dualband High Speed
If you're a network administrator, the versatile 802.11a/b/gcompatible
DWL-AG520 card gives you an immediate way to
expand to your existing 802.11b network and protect your overall
wireless network investment. By installing DWL-AG520 network
cards in desktops throughout your organization your employees can
access wireless Access Points and routers from their desktop PCs.
And as your company expands or reorganizes you won't have to keep
pulling and plugging Ethernet cables because no matter where the
workstation is relocated, it's still connected to the network.
When you add an 802.11a/b/ g access point (D-Link Air Xpert DWL-
7000AP) or router (D-Link Air Xpert DI-774), to your wireless
network, you will have an end-to-end wireless solution capable of
handling up to four times the user load of your current 802.11b
network.
In addition to its compatibility with earlier 802.11b networks, the
DWL-AG520 offers the robust speed, up to 54Mbps, of the newer
802.11g and 802.11a standards, so everyone can work faster and
more efficiently. In addition to the 2.4GHz frequency band operated
by 802.11b and g, the 5GHz band used by 802.11a also offers a way
to quickly transfer data in a frequency range that does not experience
interference or interruptions from cordless phones, microwave ovens
and other devices utilizing the 2.4GHz frequency.
WPA Enhanced Security
802.1x Authentication
Pre-Shared Key
Wi-Fi Protected Access in the DWL-AG520 provide the necessary
security protocols and tools, so employees can communicate with
colleagues confidentially, access sensitive company information or
send data that is dynamically encrypted as it's sent. Wi-Fi
Protected Access lets you authorize and identify users based on a
secret key that changes automatically at a regular interval. Used in
conjunction with a RADIUS server, WPA uses TKIP (Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000 packets.
This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security,
which requires the keys to be changed manually.
The DWL-AG520 supports 802.1x authentication for protection
against network intrusion. Used in conjunction with a RADIUS
server, this function provides a means to verify the identity of the
client before an access to the network is granted.
This function brings a lot of convenience (when used in conjunction
with other 802.11g products) for users that do not incorporate a
RADIUS server in their networks. Utilizing the Pre Shared Key
mode of WPA, the DWL-AG520 will obtain a new security key
every time it connects to the 802.11g network. You only need to
input your encryption information once in the configuration menu.
With the DWL-AG520, you will automatically receive a new key
every time you connect, doing away with the inconvenience of
manual WEP key input.
