Wireless Array
10
Introduction
All radios are activated with coverage spanning 360 degrees. If within
range, clients will always receive coverage regardless of their geographic
position relative to the Array. Radios may be assigned to 2.4 GHz and/or
5.0 GHz bands in any desired pattern.
Partial pattern coverage
If desired, the Wireless Array can be deployed close to an exterior wall. In
this case, half of all available radios have been deactivated to prevent
redundant signals from “bleeding” beyond the site’s perimeter wall. This
configuration may also be used in those cases where you want to restrict
wireless coverage to selected areas of the building’s interior.
Power over Gigabit Ethernet (PoGE)
The Xirrus Power over Gigabit Ethernet modules provide power to your Arrays
over the same Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable used for data, eliminating the need to run
power cables and provide an AC power outlet in proximity to each unit. Managed
modules provide the ability to control power using XMS.
Enterprise Class Management
The Wireless Array can be configured with its default RF settings, or the RF
settings can be customized using the Array’s embedded Web Management
