TANDBERG TANDBERG and Wireless LANs 2. TANDBERG’s Implementation TANDBERG has implemented the 802.11b standard into the TANDBERG 1000 product, using a standard PC card, to deliver 768kbps of exceptional video and audio quality. This feature allows for ‘hot desk’ applications where a video conferencing unit may be shared from desk to desk without the need for expensive Ethernet cabling. 2.1 Supported PC Cards TANDBERG continues to develop drivers for different wireless cards ba
