125 High Speed Mode is an end-to-end solution for 54g™ products that provides up to 40 percent greater throughput than typical 802.11g systems without impacting the performance of neighboring wireless LANs. New products from several leading Wi-Fi equipment vendors feature this new “standards-plus” technology that improves real-world performance without causing interference to other wireless devices. Independent test results from KeyLabs® found that access points and routers enabled with Broadcom’s 125 High Speed Mode provide the best real-world wireless LAN performance in the industry. 125 High Speed Mode devices were shown to provide an average of 59% higher through put than those using standard 802.11g, and offer up to 17% better performance than those based on the competing 108 technologies.

* When operating in High Speed Mode, this Wi-Fi® device achieves an actual throughput of up to or greater than 34.1 Mbps, which is the equivalent throughput of a system following 802.11g protocol and operating at a signaling rate of 125 Mbps. Actual throughput will vary depending on environmental, operational and other parameters.

Xpress™ Technology
Broadcom’s wireless solutions enhanced with Xpress technology increase throughput by improving the efficiency of wireless transmissions. Xpress technology uses standards-based frame-bursting to achieve more efficient data transmissions, which can increase aggregate performance in a homogeneous 802.11b, 802.11g or 802.11a network by as much as 27 percent. In a mixed 802.11g+802.11b environment, aggregate performance improves by as much as 75 percent and individual 54g™ clients enhanced with Xpress technology can achieve more than six times greater performance than legacy 802.11b products.
