Station Parameters Settings

Fig 2.4 Basic Wireless Settings (Station/Station WDS)

This options below are only available in Station, Station WDS and Repeater WDS modes unless otherwise stated.

Wireless Mode: Station

Remote AP-ESSID

This is the Service Set Identifier used by station to seek and connect to the access point of same the SSID identifier.

Site Survey

Site Survey will search for the available wireless networks in range on all the supported channels and will allow you to select one for association. In case the selected network uses encryption, you’ll need to set security parameters in wireless security section. Click Scan to re-scan the Access Points in range. Select the Access Point from the list and click Close this window. Site Survey channel scan list can be modified using the Channel Scan List control.

Remote AP – Lock to MAC

Enter the MAC address of the remote access point the device is connected to. This option will make device only connect to this access point. This is important when connection is Point-to-Point operation.

Remote AP - Preferred MAC

Enter the preferred MAC address of the access point you want device to connect when it first startup. Up to max of 4 MAC addresses can be entered. Priority is from top to bottom. In the event all preferred MAC addresses are not available, device will then pick the matching SSID access point with the strongest signal.

802.11N specifications

Compex Systems 802.11N solutions are designed to provide high-performance wireless networking, catering to the growing demand for faster and more reliable connectivity in various applications. The 802.11N standard, also known as Wi-Fi 4, significantly enhances the capabilities of previous Wi-Fi standards by utilizing advanced technologies and features.

One of the key characteristics of Compex Systems 802.11N products is their support for Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology. MIMO allows the transmission of multiple data streams simultaneously, effectively improving throughput and range. This is especially useful in environments with high user density or physical obstructions, as it enhances the signal quality and minimizes interference.

Another significant feature is the use of Channel Bonding, which combines two adjacent channels to double the data rate. This capability enables users to experience higher speeds, typically reaching up to 600 Mbps under optimal conditions. The dual-band operation, supporting both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies, further enhances flexibility and performance. The 2.4 GHz band offers broader coverage, while the 5 GHz band provides faster speeds with less congestion.

Compex Systems also incorporates advanced security protocols in their 802.11N solutions. With support for WPA2 encryption and robust authentication methods, users can ensure that their connections remain secure, protecting sensitive data from potential threats.

Quality of Service (QoS) is another critical feature, allowing network administrators to prioritize traffic according to application needs. This ensures that bandwidth-intensive applications, such as video streaming and online gaming, receive the necessary resources for optimal performance, even in a crowded network environment.

Designed for versatility, Compex Systems 802.11N devices can be employed in various scenarios, including enterprise, education, healthcare, and hospitality sectors. Their compact and durable designs make them suitable for deployment in both indoor and outdoor settings.

Overall, Compex Systems 802.11N solutions offer a comprehensive set of features and technologies aimed at providing robust, high-speed wireless connectivity. With MIMO, Channel Bonding, dual-band support, enhanced security, and QoS capabilities, these systems are well-suited to meet the demands of modern wireless networking environments.
