Hardware Description

Ethernet Compatibility

SMC’s Wireless Access Point can attach directly to 10BASE-T/ 100BASE-TX (twisted -pair) Ethernet LAN segments. These segments must conform to the IEEE 802.3 specification.

The Access Point appears as an Ethernet node and performs a routing function by moving packets from the wired LAN to remote workstations on the wireless infrastructure.

Radio Characteristics

The Wireless Access Point uses a radio modulation technique known as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), and a shared collision domain (CSMA/CA). It operates at the 5GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) band with turbo mode. Data is transmitted over a half-duplex radio channel operating at up to 72 Megabits per second (Mbps) in the turbo mode, and with a maximum operating range up to 1650 feet.
