They are not. Howver, they are standard 2Mbps cards running on
2.4GHz, using either FH or DS mode. Drivers are available for
most operating systems. DEC re-used (sort-of OEM'ed) these
cards for their RoamAbout series of products, which later was
taken over by Enterasys, who turned them into WiFi-standard
products. The DEC RoamAbout 2.4 cards (DEIRB) and the
access point will happily talk to your RL2 card.

Cheers,
