3Com Corporation has announced the availability of its new 10/100Mbps + 56K Mini PCI Adapter. The product is targeted at 3Com`s resellers and system integrators and is geared to giving them new revenue opportunities in the emerging Mini PCI market.
3Com SA country manager, Chris van Niekerk, says the launch outlines a clear roadmap for resellers and system integrators for next-generation mobile connectivity.
"3Com is giving resellers and system integrators greater flexibility and functionality for notebook PC system design. It will enable them to meet the growing demand for a cost-effective LAN and modem solution," he says.
"With Mini PCI, 3Com is improving integrated communications by giving users fast and reliable network connections from virtually anywhere in the world.
"The need for integrated mobile communications solutions has driven the growing demand for Mini PCI, which combines the same technology that 3Com has been shipping in its PC card products.
"For resellers and system integrators, this solution will help drive down overall system purchase and lifecycle costs and allow for greater upgrade options for existing mobile PCs, ensuring resource optimisation," adds Van Niekerk.
The 3Com 10/100 + 56K Mini PCI Adapter is a small form factor communication card for integrated modem and LAN connectivity in notebook PCs. The Mini PCI adapter "snaps" directly on mobile computer motherboards, leaving all external PC card slots free for other peripherals.
