Using Wireless Communication Hardware

Teachers using TI-Nspire™ CX Premium Teacher Software in the classroom can attach wireless cradles and/or network adapters to students' TI-Nspire™ CX handhelds. Those handhelds can then link wirelessly to an access point attached to the teacher's computer.

You can attach any the following devices to TI-Nspire™ CX handhelds:

TI-Nspire™ CX Wireless Network Adapter - v2 (2.4 GHz or 5.0 GHz band)
TI-Nspire™ Wireless Network Adapter (2.4 GHz)
