Wireless-G Exterior Access Point
with Power over Ethernet
High-speed wireless access for
exterior environments!
The Linksys Wireless-G Exterior Access Point lets you connect Wireless-G (802.11g) or
Wireless-B (802.11b) devices to your wired network so you can add PCs to the network
with no cabling hassle. This weather-resistant Access Point creates a “wireless bubble” in
exterior spaces, like patios and outdoor cafés. Power over Ethernet support makes it easy
to install, and you can create multiple BSSIDs that connect to individual VLANs to keep
your traffic separated.
It’s also perfect for use as a bridge, a kind of “cable-less cable” to connect remote areas
together. Maybe your warehouse is in a separate building from your offices. Or maybe you
need to connect the separate buildings of a college campus. With one Wireless-G Exterior
Access Point on each building, you’re connected at up to Wireless-G speeds—with no cable
to run. The weather-resistant housing protects the access point and is lightning protected.
To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Exterior Access Point supports both Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and the industrial-strength wireless security of Wi-Fi Protected
Access™ (WPA), encoding all your wireless transmissions with powerful encryption. The
MAC Address filter lets you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network, and
advanced logging keeps you apprised. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based
configuration utility.
RangeBooster technology is a compatible add-on to standard Wireless-G which increases your
wireless network’s range up to two times, and its throughput by up to 35%. Unlike ordinary
wireless technologies that are confused by signal reflections, RangeBooster uses two smart
receivers at each end to detect and decode reflected signals at distances where standard
technologies give up. You’ll find that “dead spots” in the wireless coverage area are reduced, too.
Moreover, the integrated QoS features provide consistent voice and video quality on both
the wired and wireless networks, enabling the deployment of business quality VoIP and video
applications.
Additional features like Multiple BSSIDs, Wireless Roaming, and Auto-Channel selection, make this
solution ideal for your Business.
