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

Basic Description:

This Point to Point Wireless Bridge includes a pair of outdoor access points, that have an integrated 22dBi 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 20°, 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 50ft. 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 2 miles can be achieved using this link.  Please note that this Point to Point Wireless Bridge operates between 5.3-5.8GHz.  If you plan on installing more then one link at the same location, you want to avoid interference between each Point to Point link by using separate channels such as CH. 60 (5.3GHz) and CH. 149 (5.7GHz). Mount the outdoor access points as high as possible to further avoid any other 5GHz interference.

Each access point has scalable output power.  Power can be scaled back for closer installations to avoid noise issues and to meet local regulatory requirements.  This Wireless Bridge is connecting at a frequency above 5GHz, which means if you have trees or other obstacles in the path of your Point-to-Point connection, you will still have a strong and solid connection at short range.  Simply mount the enclosure outside in the direction of your remote location, connect the cat5 network cable to your LAN, and you're ready for connectivity.

For applications that require transfer of very large files, video transmission, or large amounts VoIP (Voice over IP) traffic, it is recommended that you choose a FULL DUPLEX, 5GHz Point to Point link, which will not only avoid all 2.4GHz interference, but offer much faster throughput, and lower jitter rates.  A full duplex, Point to Point Wireless Bridge will also offer lower latency, which increases performance.

For distances less then 2 miles, use the following full duplex link: GNS-LIGOPTP-PRO

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 20°) the signal is not being broadcasted in all directions, only in the direction you aim the outdoor antenna.

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.

Features at a glance:

• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA):  Wireless Protected Access improves on the security features of WEP.  It includes improved data encryption and user authentication.

• Controllable High Gain Output:  Both radios have 24dBm maximum output.  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.

• 5 Ultra Bright LED's:  External LED's assist in antenna alignment, and ease of installation

• Adjustable Transmit Power:  This wireless bridge can be used for short distance connections, or medium range point to point connections of up to 1 mile, by adjusting the output power of the radios.  Maximum power output is 200mW 802.11g, and 250mW for 802.11b.

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.
