countries in the world.
Radio links
You can easily establish links between two or more devices. The link is
maintained even if the devices are not within line of sight.
Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:
■
Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible
to falsify the origin of a message.
■
Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
Wireless communication switch
You can enable or disable Wireless LAN and Bluetooth functions, with the
on/off switch. No transmissions are sent or received when the switch is off.
Slide the switch toward the left of the computer to turn it on and toward the
