Introducing the AP-600
The AP-600 is a high performance wireless Access Point that includes an integrated antenna and radio. The AP-600
comes in two models: AP-600a, which complies with the IEEE 802.11a wireless standard, and AP-600b, which
complies with the IEEE 802.11b wireless standard (see IEEE 802.11 Specifications for details). Both models provide
mobile clients with wireless access to a network infrastructure.
Proxim is a leading manufacturer of wireless networking equipment. Proxim’s unmatched expertise in radio networking
technology, combined with the company’s extensive experience serving the communication needs of the mobile
computing user, have kept Proxim at the forefront of the wireless Local Area Networking (LAN) market.
