BU-DS.11 Wireless Base Unit 
The BU-DS.11 is an IEEE 802.11b compliant base station that connects one or 
more remote sites to a central server or Internet connection. In a point-to-multi-
point configuration the BU-DS.11 is the central unit while in point-to-point 
configurations it should be installed at one end of the link. 
The BU-DS.11 is available in two options: The BU-DS.11 and the BU-DS.11D. 
The BU-DS.11 is the basic unit, equipped with an antenna integrated into the front 
cover of the outdoor unit.  
The BU-DS.11D doesn’t have an integral antenna and is equipped with a connector 
(on the outdoor unit) for an external antenna (not included with the unit). 
 
Refer to Antennas for Outdoor Applications on page 2-6 and Available Antennas on 
page 2-7 for information on how to select an appropriate external antenna.
