1 Integrated wireless devices Wireless technology makes a computer mobile by transmitting data across radio waves instead of wires. Your computer may be equipped with one or more of the following integrated wireless devices: ■ Bluetooth® device-Creates a personal area network (PAN) to connect to other Bluetooth-enabled devices such as computers, phones, printers, headsets, speakers, and cameras. In a PAN, each device communicates directly with other devices, and devices must be relatively close together-typically within 33 feet of each other. ■ Wireless local area network (WLAN) device-Connects the computer to wireless local area networks (commonly referred to as wireless networks, wireless LANs, or WLANs) in corporate offices, your home, and public places such as airports, restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, and universities. In a WLAN, each mobile wireless device communicates with a wireless access point, which can be several hundred feet away. Wireless (Select Models Only) 1-1
