Cross Reference (Unconfirmed)
This Wireless-B antenna, manufactured by D-Link, is a package that has been delivered for use with the DMS1 streaming media player. It incorporates the PRISM chipset and therefore should be compatible with the DMP1, and interchangable with the DWL-121.
The connector is smaller than a standard USB Mini-B plug and is not interchangable with the DWL-121. The receiving end of the DMP1 is a standard USB A. The DWL-120 comes with a 6ft USB-A to USB-Mini-B connector.
