wireless bridge comes ready to install "out of the box".

Point.  Shoot.  Connected...

Basic Description:

This Point to Point Wireless Bridge includes a pair of outdoor access points, that have an integrated 15dBi directional patch antenna built into the enclosure.  This means that only a single, small enclosure is required at each location.  Once the AP's are installed at each location, the Wireless Bridge operates as a transparent bridge, and will pass all network traffic between your two locations.  The Wireless Bridge operates similar to an invisible Ethernet cable connecting your two locations.  Each antenna has a beam width of about 26°, so aligning the antennas is easy.  Furthermore, you will have the ability to view real time signal strength, link quality, and noise level, using the web based configuration.  Each AP has a static IP address, used strictly for web based configuration, and troubleshooting.

Connection to Network:

To connect the access point to your network at each location, a single Cat5 Ethernet cable is used.  A 25ft. cable is included for each location.  (If you need more cable, a maximum length of up to 200ft. can be used)  The Cat5 Ethernet cable connects directly from the outdoor access point using a weatherproof grommet,  to an indoor POE (Power-over-Ethernet) injector.  The POE injector plugs into a standard AC outlet for power, and another Cat5 Ethernet cable connects from the POE injector to your network (Router/PC/Switch etc.)

At the MAIN location, you will typically connect to an open LAN port on the back of your existing router, or switch.  At the REMOTE location, you can connect either directly to a PC if you only have a single computer, or you can connect to an indoor wired/wireless router.  This will allow you to run multiple computers over the wireless bridge.  See Diagram below.

Maximum Range & Interference:

With clear, un-obstructed line of sight between your two locations, a maximum range of 1/2 mile can be achieved using this link.  Please note that because this Point to Point Wireless Bridge operates at 2.4GHz, external interference from other 2.4GHz wireless networks may slow down the transmission speed of the link, and even cause dropouts.  To avoid interference between the Point to Point Wireless Bridge, and indoor wireless routers, or access points that may be present at each of your locations, you will have the ability to change the transmission channel that the outdoor wireless bridge is operating on.  Channels 1, 6 and 11 are the most popular, as they are non-overlapping channels and will not interfere with each other.  You also want to mount the outdoor access points as high as possible to further avoid any local 2.4GHz interference.

Each access point has a 27dBm maximum output power.  This works great for long distance Point-to-Point applications, as well as Client applications.  Power can be scaled back for closer installations to avoid noise issues and to meet local regulatory requirements.

For applications that require transfer of large files, video transmission, or VoIP (Voice over IP), it is recommended that you choose a 5GHz Point to Point link, which will avoid all 2.4GHz interference.  This will not only increased distance, and more reliability, but also faster speed, and higher throughput.  A 5GHz Point to Point Wireless Bridge will also offer lower latency, which increases performance over the point to point link.

Security Features:

This Wireless Point to Point bridge operates as a transparent bridge.  It is similar to an invisible Ethernet cable connecting your two locations.  It includes multiple security options including WEP/WPA/WPA2.  It also has ability to enable MAC address authentication so that only the two access points are able communicate.  You can hide the network SSID, and because the beam width of the antennas is directional, (about 26°) the signal is not being broadcasted in all directions, only in the direction you aim the outdoor antenna.

If you have any other questions, please contact our Pre-Sales/Technical Support Dept. at (516) 214-0321.

Ask us about pre-configuration of these Access Points, so they work "out of the box" and ready to install on your local area network.

When connecting the Outdoor Cat5 Ethernet cable to the access point, the below image will illustrate how to feed the cat5 cable through the weatherproof adapter, and into the Ethernet port on the access point.  Once tightened, this will provide a weatherproof seal for the RJ45 connector.  Please contact us with any questions.
