MINILINK WIRELESS ETHERNET SYSTEM (WES) 
The MiniLink WES is a plug and play CAT5/Ethernet cable replacement device. It operates in the 
5.8 GHz U-NII bands on 5 non-overlapping channels. The WES system enables a wide variety of 
IP cameras, DVRs, encoders/decoders and web servers to be used across wireless line-of-sight links 
in ranges of 500 feet to 30 miles. The system operates independent of any network it may be 
connected to.
