  • Publication number: 20070245045
    Abstract: A wireless data transceiver includes a case, and a circuit board mounted in the case. There are provided at least one ultra wide band (UWB) module, one antenna module, and one signal plug on the circuit board. The signal plug is projected from the case for plugging in a corresponding upstream port, which is normally a USB B type socket, on a predetermined hub. The UWB module and the antenna module are adapted to receive incoming wireless signals and transmit outgoing wireless signals, allowing the wireless data transceiver to cooperate with another data transceiver correspondingly provided on a signal processing apparatus, such as a personal computer or a notebook computer, to provide wireless signal transmission between the signal processing apparatus and various peripherals via the hub.
