Applications
This section describes typical TS Wireless installations. All installations should be reviewed by a network manager to ensure proper integration with existing equipment.
Long-Range Wireless LAN
The wireless LAN is a common application of the TS Wireless system. It consists of a central control station (AP) and one or more associated Remote radios, as shown below.
A LAN provides communications between a central LAN/WAN and remote Ethernet endpoints. Remote radios can support one Ethernet endpoint each. The operation of the radio system is transparent to the computer equipment connected to it. With respect to data format and integrity, the system behaves just as it would in a hardwired arrangement.
Antenna Placement
The AP antenna is positioned at a location from which it can reliably communicate with all of the Remote radios in the system. Commonly, this is a relatively high location on top of a building, communications tower or other elevated point.
