Introduction
The Product
The product is based on the IEEE
802.11g
standard, which is the latest
54Mbps
Wireless LAN
(WLAN) standard. This standard is five times faster than the widely deployed
WiFi
(802.11b)
products that are found in homes, airport and public wireless hotspots. Because 802.11g uses the
same
2.4GHz
frequency band, the product is fully interoperable with existing WiFi cards and
devices.
Having two wireless protocols in one product ensure that your investments are protected, while
enabling you to enjoy the fastest Wireless LAN speed.
This product could operate as either one of the following modes:
a.
Wireless LAN Access Point (AP) mode, or
b.
Wireless Ethernet Bridge mode.
Product Features
Fully compatibility with
IEEE 802.11g
WLAN standard
Wireless data rate of up to
108Mbps
2.4GHz
license-free frequency band
Full backward compatibility with
802.11b
standard (WiFi 11Mbps)
802.1x
Authentication (For AP mode only).
Used with a RADIUS server to check and
verify the identity of WLAN users.
WEP
(Wired Equivalent Privacy). A simple WLAN encryption standard to protect wireless
data from sniffers.
WPA
(WiFi Protected Access), for AP mode only. An improved WLAN encryption
standard where the secret key renew automatically at regular intervals.
TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol). A new encryption key will be generated by
corporate RADIUS server when a authorized wireless adaptor/user associate with
the Access Point. This encryption key renew automatically at regular intervals. This
is normally used in high security enterprise networks.
Pre Shared Key (WPA-PSK).
A new key is generated each time a wireless adaptor
connects to the Access Point. This normally used for home user without a RADIUS
server.
Intuitive Web-based configuration
Access Control List
provides added security for AP mode.
