Netgear ME101 10BT 11Mbit/s 2.4GHz Ethernet Bridge Network Adapter

Product Description

The Netgear ME101 serves as a crucial link between wired and wireless network segments. It allows devices equipped with standard Ethernet ports to gain access to a wireless network without requiring them to have their own wireless capabilities. This is particularly useful for older printers, network-attached storage devices, or desktop computers that lack built-in Wi-Fi. Operating on the 2.4GHz frequency band, the ME101 supports the 802.11b wireless standard, offering a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 11 Mbit/s. Its 10Base-T Ethernet port ensures compatibility with a wide range of wired networking hardware. The device is designed for simple integration into existing networks, acting as a bridge to extend wireless reach to wired endpoints. By bridging the gap between wired and wireless technologies, the Netgear ME101 provides a cost-effective solution for upgrading network infrastructure without replacing all existing hardware. It simplifies network expansion and enhances the flexibility of device placement by enabling wired devices to connect wirelessly.
