Chapter 1: Introduction
The Wireless Client Bridge is a 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11b-compliant Wireless Bridge/AP/AP
Client. The Wireless Client Bridge can operate as a point-to-point or a
point-to-multipoint bridge to link networks in different buildings.
The Wireless Client Bridge includes cost-effective Power-over- Ethernet (PoE) adapter
for supplying power to the Bridge when a power outlet is not easily available. With a
one-meter RF cable needed between the Wireless Client Bridge and the external
antenna, the Wireless Client Bridge is a cost-effective solution for long distance
communications. The Wireless Client Bridge is easy to be managed by web-based user
interface configuration.
