Figure 2.1 - Overview of the 4000 Series PC Card

Antenna Connectors

The PC Card has two female MicroMate antenna connec-
tors on one end. All antennas and cables attached to the
PC Card must be equipped with male MicroMate connec-
tors.

The two antenna connectors allow a Diversity Antenna or
two separate antennas to be attached to the Aironet 4000
Series Wireless LAN Adapter. When two antennas are con-
nected, the PC Card will automatically select antennas in
order to provide the strongest signal for radio operations.
This feature improves packet delivery and system through-
put by avoiding reception and transmission instances which
are hampered by RF multipath signals or blocking struc-
tures in the environment.
