MeshNetworks
smaller form factor like the VMM. It combines the functionality of a Wireless Router and the
Wireless Modem Card into a single device. By adding an Ethernet port to a Wireless Router,
MeshNetworks enables video cameras, computers or any other Ethernet-capable device to get
high-speed access to the MEA wireless broadband network, without the need to purchase a
separate Wireless Modem Card. The PWR also provides the same functionality as the EWR,
including network routing, Multi-Hopping™ and geo-location services.
The MEA Portable Wireless Router 6300 (PWR6300) is an infrastructure device positioned in a
fixed location, such as on a traffic cabinet or outdoor kiosk.
The PWR6300 provides range extension, a means to route around obstructions, a fixed location
reference for use in Geo-Location, and the capability of enabling IP devices.
