provides point-to-point or point-to-multipoint bridge links between remote
Ethernet LANs, and wireless access point services for clients in the local LAN area.
It includes an integrated high-gain antenna for the 802.11a radio and can
operate as a “Slave” or “Master” bridge in point-to-multipoint configurations, or
provide a high-speed point-to-point wireless link between two sites that can be
up to 15.4 km (9.6 miles) apart. As a “Master” bridge in point-to-multipoint
configurations it can support connections to as many as six “Slave” units. The
802.11b/g radio requires an external antenna option.

The wireless bridge system offers a fast, reliable, and cost-effective solution for
connectivity between remote Ethernet wired LANs or to provide Internet access to
an isolated site. The system is also easy to install and operate, ideal for situations
where a wired link may be difficult or expensive to deploy. The wireless bridge
connection provides data rates of up to 108 Mbps.
