May 1, 2006, Wichita,
Kansas -- MacBook Pro users can now get up to a 100%
improvement in wireless performance using the new MacBook
Pro Transceiver from QuickerTek, Inc. This new Transceiver
works with all of the common 802.11b/g networking hardware
including Apple AirPort and AirPort Express Base Stations.
The MacBook Pro Transceiver is available from QuickerTek dealers
for a suggested retail price of $200 USD.
Who needs betwen 50% and 100% better wireless
performance? Those people who want to use their MacBook Pro
up to twice as far away from the AirPort Base Station or access
point. Sit in the back yard, use your MacBook across the street
at a neighbor's house, sit at the far end of office from the
Base Station or even someone who doesn't necessarily need
more range, but would thoroughly enjoy faster transfer rates
from their wireless network.
This new Transceiver offers 500 miiliwatts of
RF power. Compared to less than 50 milliwatts of RF power
found in most laptops, this Transceiver makes a huge difference
in not only your ability to sit further away from the Base
Station or access point, but also in retaining a strong and
full-speed signal.
The MacBook Pro is still very easy to use when
equipped with a Transceiver. There are no drivers or other
changes to the normal wireless routine. The internal antenna
and Bluetooth still work - in other words you're not required
to disconnect anything to get the dramatically better wireless.
The antenna end of the Transceiver easily clips onto the top
of the case without velcro and won't mar the finish or alter
the case in any way.
You also can use any popular wireless networking
hardware including access points from LinkSys, Belkin, dLink
and of course, Apple AirPort and AirPort Extreme Base Stations.
That means just about any 802.11b or 802.11g networks are
within your power to use.
The MacBook Pro Transceiver attaches internally
and a fine cable extends out of the case to the external antenna.
This cable exits through the AirPort Express port on the MacBook
Pro.
Like most QuickerTek products, it's backed with a one-year
warranty on parts and labor. Additional product information
