RadioLAN manual Introduction, The DockLINK and Radio Unit

Introduction

Welcome to the next generation of RadioLAN wireless network products. The DockLINK is a module, which connects to a 10BaseT Network device, such as a PC, workstation, or printer, allowing interaction with RadioLAN wireless network resources.

The DockLINK includes a Radio Unit, a RJ-45 jack for connection to an Ethernet Hub, a power jack, and a special RJ11 serial port for connecting the DockLINK to a VT-100 terminal or modem.

There are two versions of the DockLINK:

Model 408 for US Installations: This version uses a plug-in power adapter that is compatible with US electrical systems.

Model 408Z for International Installations: This version uses a plug-in power adapter that is compatible with European electrical systems.

Each version now supports options that you can download anc configure to enhance the DockLINK’s operation and security capabilities, so you can add Data Encryption to the already powerful capabilities included with the DockLINK.
