Connection to Network:
To connect the access point to your network at each location, a single Cat5 Ethernet cable is used. A 50ft. cable is included for each location. (If you need more cable, a maximum length of up to 250ft. can be used) The Cat5 Ethernet cable connects directly from the outdoor access point using a weatherproof grommet, to an indoor POE (Power-over-Ethernet) injector. The POE injector plugs into a standard AC outlet for power, and another Cat5 Ethernet cable connects from the POE injector to your network (Router/PC/Switch etc.)
At the MAIN location, you will typically connect to an open LAN port on the back of your existing router, or switch. At the REMOTE location, you can connect either directly to a PC if you only have a single computer, or you can connect to an indoor wired/wireless router. This will allow you to run multiple computers over the wireless bridge.
Maximum Range & Interference:
With clear, un-obstructed line of sight between your two locations, a maximum range of 2 miles can be achieved using this link. Please note that this Point to Point Wireless Bridge operates between 4.94-4.99GHz. If you plan on installing more then one link at the same location, you want to avoid interference between each Point to Point link by using separate channels. Mount the outdoor access points as high as possible to further avoid any other 4.9GHz interference.
Each access point has a 24dBm maximum output power. This works great for long distance Point-to-Point applications, as well as Client applications. Power can be scaled back for closer installations to avoid noise issues and to meet local regulatory requirements.
For applications that require transfer of very large files, video transmission, or large amounts VoIP (Voice over IP) traffic, it is recommended that you choose a FULL DUPLEX, 5GHz Point to Point link, which will not only avoid all 4.9GHz interference, but offer much faster throughput, and lower jitter rates. A full duplex, Point to Point Wireless Bridge will also offer lower latency, which increases performance.
Security Features:
This Wireless Point to Point bridge operates as a transparent bridge. It is similar to an invisible Ethernet cable connecting your two locations. It includes multiple security options including WEP/WPA/WPA2. It also has ability to enable MAC address authentication so that only the two access points are able communicate. You can hide the network SSID, and because the beam width of the antennas is directional, (about 16°) the signal is not being broadcasted in all directions, only in the direction you aim the outdoor antenna.
