Installation in a Network
This section describes how to install the FX-DS540-AP/APP to construct a network with improved
performance and discusses the general features and radio characteristics of the wireless LAN as well as
the guidelines for constructing the network.
Features of the Wireless Network
In general, the operation of a wireless network is the same as for most other types of LAN. The most
prominent feature of the wireless network is that it uses radio waves as its medium, eliminating the need
for cabling. The wireless network thus requires no cabling cost and has other advantages as listed below:
-
Quick construction of a LAN
-
Temporary installation of a LAN
-
Higher flexibility in layout of connected PCs (terminals)
-
Assured mobility of connected PCs (terminals)
On the other hand, the wireless network has the following drawbacks from the operational point of view
due to the nature of radio waves:
-
Signal attenuation
-
Signal interference
Also, although this unit does not require a radio license, it is subject to radio regulations.
