SKW17 is an 802.11n b/g wifi one-stream USB interface designed specifically to provide enhanced WiFi performance and value for home gateways, set-top boxes, gaming consoles, printers, IP cameras, and variety of other products that host
processors not originally intended to support WiFi functions. SKW17's AR9271 single-chip features a new architecture that integrates both a CPU and memory to run more of the WiFi function on-chip. The integrated CPU offloads the wireless processing overhead from the host appliance and enables consumer electronic devices to support WiFi functions seamlessly without change of original host
processors.
