Introduction
Introduction
The Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Wireless Bridge (hereafter called the bridge) is a wireless device
designed for building-to-building wireless connectivity. Operating in the 2.4-GHz band (2.400 to 2.497
GHz), using the IEEE 802.11g standard, the bridge delivers 1 to 54 Mbps data rates without the need for
a license. The bridge is a self-contained unit designed for outdoor installations, providing differing
antenna gains as well as coverage patterns. It supports point-to-point and multipoint bridging
configurations. You can stack two bridges in point-to-point configurations to increase data throughput
or to provide cold standby redundancy.

or to provide cold standby redundancy.
The bridge can also be configured to operate as an access point or as a workgroup bridge. When placed
in access point mode, the unit supports wireless IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g client devices. When
placed into workgroup bridge mode, the unit provides a wireless connection for remote wired devices to
a Cisco Aironet access point or to a Cisco Aironet bridge.

The bridge is available with an integrated antenna or with external antenna connectors. When using a
bridge with an integrated antenna, you must choose a mounting location with a clear path to the remote
antenna and orient the bridge so that the antenna is positioned for maximum signal strength. The
mounting brackets in the optional installation kit has adjustment slots that facilitate the positioning
process. When using a bridge with an external antenna, mount the bridge in a convenient location near
the external antenna. Each external antenna has its own mounting instructions.

Note
To meet regulatory restrictions, the external antenna bridge unit and the external antenna must be
professionally installed. The network administration or other IT professional responsible for installing and
configuring the unit is a suitable professional installer. Following installation, access to the unit should be
password protected by the network administrator to maintain regulatory compliance.

System Requirements
The bridge system consists of a weather-proof bridge, a power injector, a grounding block, and optional
external antennas. The bridge and external antennas are typically mounted outdoors, the grounding block
is installed at the building entrance, and the power injector and the power module are installed indoors.
