CB3000 Overview
The Symbol CB3000 Client Bridge (Part No. CB-3000-0010-WWR) is an IEEE 802.11a/b/g compliant
wireless LAN Ethernet adapter. The CB3000 operates in both 2.4GHz (GigaHertz) and 5.2GHz
frequencies. The CB3000 extends wireless networking capabilities to printers, scales, medical
equipment, manufacturing machinery, bar code readers, time clocks, point-of-sale and other data
collection devices. The CB3000 provides a reliable, cost-effective interface between devices utilizing
Ethernet port and wireless LAN switches and access points.
Multiple devices can share one CB3000 using a 10/100Base-T Ethernet hub. This feature saves
equipment costs when several devices require wireless Ethernet connectivity. The CB3000 has an
on-board TCP/IP stack to provide a reliable data transport mechanism. The CB3000 can support up to
16 client connections (or one POS device connection) to your server. Use the CB3000 to network
devices that do not have a PC Card slot or PCI card slot (printers, scanners, etc.) to support wireless
LAN cards.
