The IEEE 802.11 b/g Outdoor AP/Bridge (Support IEEE802.11a Client Backhaul) is a rugged multi-mode
dual-radio outdoor access point, specifically designed for building municipal or campus wide wireless networks in
harsh outdoor environments. The entry model OWL800 is deployed as a traditional multi-wireless Access Point (AP)
or a backhaul. The second model HSG800 , can be used as an Outdoor Wireless Gateway with built-in Hotspot
Access Control and Billing features. The OWL2000 is purely used for building point-to-point bridges. Some of the
