1. General Description
AzureWave Technologies, Inc. introduces the pioneer of the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n WIFI M.2
module --- AW-NM191NF. The AW-NM191NF IEEE 802.11 b/g/n WIFI M.2 module is a highly
integrated wireless local area network (WLAN) solution to let users enjoy the digital content
through the latest wireless technology without using the extra cables and cords. It enables a
high performance, cost effective, low power, compact solution that provides SDIO or USB
interface to host processor.
Compliance with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard, the AW-NM191NF uses Direct Sequence Spread
Spectrum (DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), DBPSK, DQPSK, CCK and
QAM baseband modulation technologies. A high level of integration and full implementation of the power
management functions specified in the IEEE 802.11 standard minimize the system power requirements
by using AW-NH387L. In addition to the support of WPA/WPA2 and WEP 64-bit and 128-bit encryption,
the AW-NH387L also supports the IEEE 802.11i security standard through the implementation of
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)/Counter Mode CBC-MAC Protocol (CCMP), Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) with Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES)/Cipher-Based Message Authentication Code (CMAC), and WLAN Authentication and Privacy
Infrastructure (WAPI) security mechanisms. For the video, voice and multimedia applications the AW-
NH387L support 802.11e Quality of Service (QoS).
A high level of integration and full implementation of the power management functions specified
in the IEEE 802.11 standard minimize system power requirements by using AW-NM191NF.
AW-NM191NF module adopts Marvell 88W8801 solution.
