Applications
The FLC830E/910E units are can be configured for multiple operating modes. All the modes essentially are used to
extend the Ethernet network wirelessly to reduce the cost to add Ethernet to remote sites or create an Ethernet bridge
between networks.
Base Station & Station Adaptor Modes
The FLC830E/910E can either act as a base station or a station adaptor. As the base station the modem acts as the
center point for wireless communications, allowing modems configured as station adaptors to connect and build a
network. As a station adaptor the modem acts as a node to attach an Ethernet device or LAN segment thru a base
station.
Wireless Repeating Mode
The FLC830E/910E can act as a base station and repeater to repeat the transmission to other units to increase the
reliability and extend the coverage area of the wireless network. This mode uses a half duplex operation mode to
communicate with another wireless repeater and wireless stations. All the units are configured the same with the addition
of the MAC address of units to communicate with, or automatic detection of the MAC address.
Wireless Interbuilding Mode
The FLC830E/910E can act in an interbuilding mode and create an interconnected wireless network. In this mode there
is no central point of communications any unit connected wirelessly can communicate to any other unit in the system
creating a mesh network. All the units are configured the same using the same channel and mode.
