you will need additional equipment to connect to the Internet and configuration will depend 
on your current network infrastructure. Please refer to Chapter 2 for more information. 

1 Product Overview

 

Thank you for using the ALL-WAP0558N. It is a powerful and enhanced business-class 
product with 4 multi-functions: Access Point, Client Bridge, WDS, and Client Router. 
 
ALLNET’ ALL-WAP0558N uses the latest wireless standard, 802.11n, which allows for faster 
wireless throughput. The ALL-WAP0558N affords a great advantage to minimize the time and 
cost which is required to expand your network. It operates at 5GHz and is also backwards 
compatible with 802.11a networking equipment. 

 

The ALL-WAP0558N is easy to install almost anywhere with included proprietary Power over 
Ethernet adapter for quick outdoor installation.    In addition, the ALL-WAP0558N can manage 
power level control, and it features narrow bandwidth selection,

 

traffic shaping and real-time 

RSSI indication. The ALL-WAP0558N fully supports wireless encryption including Wi-Fi 
Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), (64/128/152)-bit WEP Encryption, and IEEE 802.1x 
with RADIUS.    Additionally, the ALL-WAP0558N is an ideal choice to pair with the 
ALL-WAP0558N in a Access Point – Client Bridge or WDS Bridge – WDS Bridge topology. 

 

   

The ALL-WAP0558N utilizes a proprietary PoE adapter.    Only use the 

supplied PoE adapter.    Damage may occur if another PoE adapter is used.

 

 

1.1 Features 

The  following  list  describes  the  design  and  scope  of  the  ALL-WAP0558N  made  possible 
through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs: 
 

a)

 

Difficult-to-wire environments 

There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. For example, historic 
and older buildings as well as open areas and cross-street architectures make the 
installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive. 

b)

 

Temporary workgroups 

Consider  situations  in  parks,  athletic  arenas,  exhibition  centers,  disaster-recovery, 
temporary  offices  and  construction  sites  where  one  wants  a  temporary  WLAN
