Chapter 1: Introduction
The Telex Wireless CPE/Outdoor Bridge
Perfect for the home or small office connection to the network, the Telex Wireless CPE
(Customer Premise Equipment) extends wireless connectivity from an access point to any
Ethernet-ready network device, such as a switch, router, desktop or notebook PC. The Wireless
CPE simply and efficiently transmits data between 10Base-T and your wireless LAN or wireless
ISP access point.
The Telex Wireless CPE gives you the freedom to place any standard networked computer
anywhere within range of an access point. A built-in 18 dBi antenna and 200 mW radio means
that you can easily cover distances of up to 12 miles.
Based on signal strength, it dynamically shifts between 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbps network speeds for
maximum reliability of connection. So you’ve got the flexibility and performance you need
from your wireless LAN or wireless ISP.
Wireless data or VoIP is transmitted and received from the CPE to the network access point (AP)
on the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The radio signal path must be line-of-sight (LOS) between the 2
antennas.
