Introduction
The MIMO 2x2 Wireless Outdoor System (“outdoor unit” in the following paragraphs) consists of
two concurrent running radios, one at 5GHz supporting 802.11a/n standard, and the other at 2.4GHz for
802.11b/g/n features. This outdoor AP supports Point-to-Point, Point to Multipoint, building-to-building
communication, that the data rate is up to 150Mbps in HT-20 mode, or to 300 Mbps in HT-40 mode. The
bridge function is most suitable for enterprises, campus or off-site locations that require LAN or Internet
access without the availability of wired networks to extend network coverage up to 35Km.; and the
802.11 b/g/n radio is mainly for Access Point application to provide local wireless access to the Internet.
The outdoor unit offers different encryption mechanisms including WEP, and AES to ensure the
communication security. For APs / Bridges connections, the MAC address authentication mechanism is
provided.
Theoutdoor unitis designed for the outdoor environment and it is full weather proof against the
most stringent condition. For further protection, the bridge and Power over Ethernet adapter are all with
the built-in lightning protectors.
To meet the stringent outdoor application, the outdoor unit incorporates the patent technology to
ensure the operation of the radio over the wide temperature. The build-in lightning protectors further
ensure the radio and its accessories’ safety during the operation. Power over Ethernet design, mounting
accessory and field installation kits ensure easy to use experience.
The outdoor unit is in a weatherproof enclosure for mounting outdoors and includes its own
brackets for attaching to a wall, pole, radio mast, or tower structure. The unit powered through its
Ethernet cable connection from a power injector module that installed indoors. The wireless bridge
system offers a fast, reliable, and cost-effective solution forconnectivity between remote Ethernet wired
LANs or to provide Internet access to an isolated site. The system is also easy to install and operate, ideal
for situations where a wired link may be difficult or expensive to deploy.
In addition, the outdoor unit offers full network management capabilities through an easy-to-use
web interface, a command-line interface, and support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
tools.
