Figure 2.8. Compatible Infrastructure Mode
In the Compatible Infrastructure mode, each wireless terminal performs communication via the AP as in
the Standard Infrastructure mode. As the roaming function is supported, the wireless terminal can log in
to any unit type AP within the coverage.
The unit type AP does not provide FX-DS540-APDLs unique features as it works as a simple bridge.
