Secure High-Speed Wired-Wireless Connectivity
Extend the functionality of your network with this universal Wi-Fi bridge. The bridge enables a laptop or PC user without built-in wireless capability to connect to a wireless LAN. When paired with a low-cost 3Com® OfficeConnect® Dual Speed Hub, up to 16 network devices—PCs, printers, point-of-sale devices, and Internet appliances—can be connected to a wireless LAN. Eliminating the need for Wi-Fi PC cards and adapters for each device creates a mixed wired and wireless network at a much lower cost while maintaining flexibility as network needs change.
The wireless LAN workgroup bridge supports all three IEEE 802.11 a, b, and g networking standards. This all-in-one support preserves existing equipment investments while supporting the latest higher-speed technologies. Mix and match radio bands to meet different coverage and bandwidth user needs within the same area. A one-time configuration at initial setup translates to a true plug-and-play experience. Once setup is complete, the bridge can be remotely managed using a standard Web browser or SNMP management tools. Auto network connect keeps wireless users connected to the network, even when roaming across IP subnets, with a choice of ad hoc or infrastructure connectivity mode.
Features:
Economically expands a mixed wired and wireless network by eliminating the need for wireless PC Cards and adapters
Enhances the revenue potential of hotel and leisure business hotspot services by extending WLAN access to laptop and pocket PC users who don't have built-in wireless capability
When paired with the 3Com OfficeConnect Dual Speed Hub 16 (3C16754-US), the bridge can connect up to 16 network devices to a wireless LAN
Simultaneous 802.11 a/b/g wireless standard support delivers comprehensive coverage and investment protection; Wi-Fi certification ensures broad compatibility
Advanced 256-bit WPA encryption for 11g clients and 40/64- and 128-bit WEP encryption for legacy 11a and 11b clients protect all communications over the wireless LAN
802.1X server authentication with PEAP and EAP-TTLS protocol support help ensure that only authorized uses access the network and centralize authentication control and management
Simple one-time setup, with no configuration required in most cases, makes for true plug-and-play operation
Web browser and SNMP support enable administrators to remotely manage the bridge from anywhere and seamlessly integrate the wireless LAN with enterprise management tools
Auto network connect keeps network connections continuously available as mobile users roam; choose ad-hoc mode for simple two-way connections or infrastructure mode for expanded connectivity
Optional 2.4/5GHz dual-band omnidirectional antenna extends the bridge's wireless transmission range and adds installation flexibility
Package Contents:
