1. Introduction
The AirLive WHB-5854A is designed for the outdoor environment. It will function under the
strict weather as the following passages you see. About the further protection, the bridge and
Power over Ethernet adapter are built with the lightning protector. This advanced innovation is
to help you to increase from the productivity, cost-effective, mobile Internet access, to other
sections.
The AirLive WHB-5854A is a wireless building-to-building bridge solution. The AirLive
WHB-5854A provides the data rate up to 108 Mbps that is best suited for enterprises, campus
or off-site locations that require LAN or Internet access without the availability of wired networks
to extend the network coverage. The AirLive WHB-5854A provides the point to point and point
to multi-point connection.
One of the AirLive WHB-5854A advanced feature is over the data rate section. The
bridge has two data rate modes, one is the IEEE 802.11a, and another is the IEEE802.11a
turbo. About the bridge under the IEEE 802.11a mode, it supports the data rate from 6 Mbps
to 54 Mbps. Under the IEEE802.11a turbo mode, it supports the data rate from 12 Mbps to
108 Mbps in Atheros turbo mode. The supported frequency channel for the IEEE802.11a or
the IEEE802.11a turbo are across from 5.15 to 5.85 GHz.
Another advanced design is the security setting. We all know the security is the major issue
over the wireless communication. We offer the two modes on the security setting, one is
“Shared Key”, and the other is “Unique Key”. It is really easy for you to secure your
communication through this thoughtful feature.
About the field installation, it is easy for you to install the device outside field. The
following paragraphs remind you what you need to notice during the installation form the site
survey, antenna installation, to the ODU installation. We also offer you the evaluated max
distance as your reference under the IEEE802.11a and the Antenna gain is either 17 dBi or 23
dBi.
During the appendix section, we offer you some terminologies explanation and how to do
the simple troubleshooting when you encounter the difficult over the wireless connection.
