802.11ac Wave 2 link

The 2T2R radio carries data in the 5 GHz band across an 80 MHz channel.

14dBi

Dual-polarization directional antenna

The built-in antenna focuses on the remote site with a 50 degree horizontal and 15 degree vertical beam.

IP55enclosure

Weather-resistant housing

It keeps working under harsh weather, and ± 4 kV surge protection guards the line.

4SSIDs

Multiple networks with VLAN tagging

It broadcasts four separate wireless networks and separates access levels with IEEE 802.1Q tags.

2minutes

Point-to-point in three steps

The DIP switch sets the unit to master or slave and completes the point-to-point link quickly.

10W

Low power draw

It runs from an 802.3at PoE+ line or a 12 V DC input.

SETUP AND MANAGEMENT

Step-by-step setup wizardThe graphical management interface guides the system administrator through the whole setup.

Wi-Fi analyzerThe built-in analyzer shows real-time channel utilization, and auto channel selection reduces overlap.

Central managementThe WAPC-500, WAPC-1000, NMS-500 and NMS-1000V controllers push wireless profiles to many APs at once.

ApplicationsWireless IP surveillance links·Building-to-building bridging·Busy venues such as airports and conference halls·Public service backbone

The 5 GHz channel list varies by country according to local radio regulations.
