Connecting and networking the Pocket
PC with other devices
The Pocket PC offers a wide range of ways to exchange data with other devices or to work in a
network.
You have already become familiar with data synchronisation via ActiveSync and an ActiveSync cable
in the "Synchronising data with ActiveSync" section. You can connect the ActiveSync cable provided
to any PC or notebook equipped with a USB port. An active ActiveSync cable for devices with a
serial port is also available as an accessory.
In addition, the infrared interface, wireless LAN (optional) and Bluetooth (optional) are available for
wireless communication.
This chapter provides you with information on wireless data transfer

Wireless data transfer with infrared interface
The infrared interface (IrDA) permits wireless serial data transfer with up to 115 kbits/s.
For data transfer, you must align the infrared interface of your Pocket PC with that of the partner
device. The devices must not be more than one metre apart. The infrared interface of one device
must be in the range of influence (horizontally approx. 30 ° and vertically approx. 15 °) of the infrared
interface of the other device.
The infrared interface is simultaneously a consumer infrared interface (CIR). The CIR interface can
transmit over greater distances. As a result, you can also use the Pocket PC as a remote control with
suitable software.
Wireless connection via wireless LAN
Your Pocket PC is equipped with an integrated wireless LAN (optional). Information on this topic is
provided in the help file on your Pocket PC.
You can also activate and deactivate the integrated wireless LAN just as you wish.
