Wireless LAN

Cam asa arata un plan de extindere a acces point-urilor wireless

In an enterprise or campus area, some mobile users may need a continuous network connection. By installing 11Mbps access points in the area, mobile users can be always on the network by installing a wireless card in their notebook or PDA. The roaming capacity allows users connected to the network to transparently roam from one access point to another.

A first mile solution now is simple with PLANET's wireless devices. No wiring is needed and the provided bandwidth can be up to 11Mbps. By installing PLANET's wireless access point equipped with omni-directional antenna in the user's neighborhood, all users around the access point can easily connect to Internet through the access point by installing a wireless PCI card or a WAP-1963 in AP client mode. By using a directional antenna, the distance between users and AP can be a few kilometers.

Wiring inside your own building may be an easy job, but it is hard if network cabling needs to route through some public areas or difficult wiring environments. PLANET's 11Mbps Wireless access point, the WAP-1963A, can work in bridge or repeater mode to provide a robust solution for connecting two or more buildings wired Ethernets together. By extending distance using PLANET's external antenna, the installation is easy and the distance between buildings can be 10km or more.
