- MODEL 195C/M OVERVIEW
- The ESTeem Model 195C/M and 195C/M are wireless modem transceivers that can be used to build many types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). The ESTeem 195C/M series have both and Ethernet interface and an RS-232 serial port for legacy device networks. The Model 195C/M is a very sophisticated networking device that can be configured for multiple modes of operation depending upon the needs of the wireless and wired LAN system. The following configuration modes are provided as an overview of the basic network types, as all possible network configurations can not be listed. For further help in selecting the correct network type, please refer to Chapter 4 of this User’s Manual or call Customer Support at 509-735-9092.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
EtherStation (Client) Mode
When the 195C/M is configured in the EtherStation mode and attached to a single Ethernet Device, the Model 195C/M will
emulate a wireless card in functionality for communication as a mobile client. The 195C/M will seamless roam under the radio
canopy of Access Points and can provide wireless communication for mobile Ethernet devices such as vehicles, forklifts, cranes,
etc (Figures 2&3).
RS-232 Serial Applications
The ESTeem 195C/M is installed with an RS-232 data port for serial data applications run over the wireless links (Figure 6). The
serial network can be used in a point-to-point or point-to-multi-point application for networking serial (RS-232C) devices,
providing serial connections to legacy hardware in a new Ethernet network.
