About the ProSAFE Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320
The ProSAFE Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 is the basic building block of a wireless
LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between wired Ethernet networks and
radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other
devices.
LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between wired Ethernet networks and
radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other
devices.
The wireless access point provides wireless connectivity to multiple wireless network devices
within a fixed range or area of coverage—interacting with a wireless network interface card
(NIC) through an antenna. Typically, an individual in-building wireless access point provides
a maximum connectivity area of about a 500-foot radius. The ProSAFE Wireless-N Access
Point WNAP320 can support up to 64 users simultaneously in a range of several hundred
feet.

The ProSAFE Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 acts as a bridge between the wired LAN
and wireless clients. Connecting multiple wireless access points through a wired Ethernet
backbone can further increase the wireless network coverage. As a mobile computing device
moves out of the range of one wireless access point, it moves into the range of another. As a
result, wireless clients can freely roam from one wireless access point to another and still
maintain seamless connection to the network.

The autosensing capability of the ProSAFE Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 allows
packet transmission at up to 300 Mbps, or at reduced speeds to compensate for distance or
electromagnetic interference.
