transceiver into a single assembly attached to the back of the notebook's display panel
cover. This location improves receive-signal strength and reduces noise pick-up. The
display's self-shielding effects greatly reduce RF susceptibility. PC Card and Mini-PCI
slots are left free for other uses and there is no need for RF connectors and coaxial
cabling, which can induce noise and signal loss.
