Introduction

1.1 Overview

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the NWA1300-NJ.

The NWA1300-NJ is an in-the-wall IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless access point that supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) to eliminate the need for power sockets. The compact NWA1300-NJ can fit in a standard size wall outlet box, which allows you to hide it in the wall or wallboard with the wall jack faceplate.

The NWA1300-NJ extends the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a wireless network with other IEEE 802.11b/g/n compatible devices.

In the following example, you connect a PoE switch to a broadband router/ modem. You then use the swicth to provide power and Internet access to three NWA1300-NJs in different rooms via Ethernet cables.
