EnStations – The Solution for High-Speed, Long-Distance Wireless Connectivity
EnGenius EnStations are Outdoor Wireless Access Points with
embedded high-gain directional antennas, high 26 dBm output
power and high receive sensitivity that substantially extends wireless
transmission range and delivers stable connectivity over great distances
Available in both Wireless N300 2.4 GHz (EnStation 2) and 5 GHz
(EnStation 5) models, EnStations are designed to withstand extreme
environmental conditions and feature certied IP55 housings.
EnStations are deal for deploying for these venues:
College
Campuses
Corporate
Campuses
Shopping
Malls
Resort
Properties
Parks and
Campgrounds
Going The Distance.
EnGenius EnStations are specically designed and engineered to extend networks over great distances and to transfer data at stable, robust wireless speeds in point-to-point deployments in large campus venues, over extensive acreage in industrial, farming or ranching properties, in large indoor structures like arenas, shopping malls, warehouses, convention centers or other challenging environments.

WISP Scenarios
EnStations because they are high-performance, competitively priced wireless products that can be used in Client Bridge mode and pointed to a Wireless Internet Service Provider’s base station making them ideal CPE that can generate recurring revenue for Internet providers. The compact form factor of EnStation units also make them acceptable to many homeowners asscociation because they are barely noticeable and unobtrusive additions to a community’s architectural standards.
Interoperability with other EnGenius Access Points
EnGenius offers a number of high-powered, long range Access Point models that can serve the role of a WISP base station or group of base stations for a single community that an EnStation
CPE unit can point to and fulll all the homeowner’s needs for broadband connectivity, HDTV,
telephony and other WISP-provided services.

Monitor & Upgrade EnStations from the Convenience of Your Desk
With EnGenius’ EZ Controller™ Management Software, units that have already been deployed on rooftops or other difcult to access locations and other EnGenius APs or Client Bridges in the network can be recongured to a different operational
mode or upgraded remotely without having to manually reconnect to them or re-install them onsite.
Better Voice & Video Streaming
EnStations also employ Advanced QoS (Quality of Service) to prioritize bandwidth-intensive applications like video
streaming or bandwidth sensitive applications like VoIP (Voice over IP) telephone calls for optimal connectivity
whether over wired or wireless connections. In addition, each EnStation is capable of supporting up to 50+ client
devices, providing a ofoading solution for public access
and other high density network environments.
Additional Operating Modes
EnStations support three (3) different operating modes for extending the wireless signal of a network: Access
Point, Client Bridge, and WDS Bridge mode. This exibility makes EnStation5 a versatile solution for
creating a high-speed, stable and highly secure outdoor wireless link between buildings, connecting surveillance
cameras, or connecting outdoor digital sign to an ofce
network. Greater X can be achieved however when the device is paired with another EnStaion2 or EnStation5 for Point to Point applications, focusing their narrow bandwidth to cover large distances where Ethernet cabling is impractical.
More secure network congurations
EnStations include industry standard wireless encryption such as Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK). MAC Address Filtering is also included allowing network administrators to allow or deny network access to clients devices (computers, tablet PCs, NAS, smartphones, etc.) according to their MAC addresses.

Can Be Installed Virtually Anywhere
EnStations include a proprietary PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) injector with Power Adapter for installations via Ethernet cable from a switch for mountings where power outlets may not be readily available like rooftops, rafters, near ceiling in large indoor venues like shopping malls, convention centers or warehouses. Also includes a mast mount kit with binding strap.
