Introducing the GW-AP54SAG

Overview of the GW-AP54SAG

The GW-AP54SAG is an access-point based on IEEE 802.11a+g based 2.4-GHz and 5 GHz
radio technology. It contains an 802.11a+g and a full-duplex 10/100 LAN interfaces. The
GW-AP54SAG can function as a simple Access Point (AP), and act as the center point of a
wireless network supporting a data rate of up to 54 Mbps. It can also connect these wireless
devices to wired network through the LAN interface.

The GW-AP54SAG can also function in a repeater mode, which is used to extend the physical
coverage of the wireless network. Finally, the GW-AP54SAG can also function in a Wireless
Distribution System (WDS) mode. Multiple GW-AP54SAG’s can be configured to operate in

the WDS mode to inter-connect wired LAN segments that are attached to these GW-
AP54SAG’s.

Since the 802.11g shares the same 2.4GHz radio band as the 802.11b technology, it can inter-

operate with existing 11Mbps 802.11b devices. Therefore you can protect your existing in-
vestment in 802.11b client cards, and migrate to the high-speed 802.11g standard as your
needs grow.

To address growing security concerns in a wireless LAN environment, different levels of secu-
rity can be enabled in the GW-AP54SAG, including:

•

To disable SSID broadcast to restrict association to only those client stations that are already
pre-configured with the correct SSID

•

To enable WEP (Wireless Encryption Protocol) 64, 128, or 152-bit encryption to protect
the privacy of your data.

•

Support of Access List Control to allow you to grant/deny access to/from specified wire-
less stations

•

Provisioning of centralized authentication through Radius Server(s).

•

WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access, Pre-Shared Key) for home users to provide authenti-
cation, data integrity, and data privacy.

•

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) works with a RADIUS server to provide stronger authenti-
cation as well as data integrity and privacy.
