The Wireless Bridge mode help to make the two Ethernet networks connected without any wire. With two
WAP-1965s in this mode, the two LANs in distance can communicate to each other. This could be
deployed if the networks are hard to make the wire in between. Please be noted, please key in the MAC
address to make the WAP-1965 communicate with a specific remote Access Point, you can find the MAC
address either from the utility or from the label under the Access Point.
The omni antenna is with 17dBm transmitting power, if you would like to make longer distance that the
default antenna cannot reach, consult your local dealer for more about how to extend your distance.
Note:
Please do consult your local dealer about the external or directional antenna you would like to
install and get the connection. Improper outdoor antenna installation could damage the Access Point or
get injured or get killed in some condition like thunders or strong winds.

For multiple LANs, the WAP-1965 also helps to make the connections. With this mode, three or more
LANs can bridge to each other.
Note: The mode

will turns the Access Points, for example the above three Access point
in the figure, into one network domain. This also means your three Ethernet networks will use 22Mbps
transmission rate to communicate with each other. In a large network, please consider using
management device to reduce the network broadcast to the wireless network.
