Introduction
The EnStation5-ACv2/EnStationACv2/ENH500v3/
EnStation5-ACv2
EnStationACv2 ENS500-ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2
ENH500v3
ENS500-ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2 is a high-powered, ultra long-range 2x2 Wireless 802.11ac/a/n Outdoor Access Point with speeds up to 867 Mbps on both its high-powered
5 GHz radios. Builded in EnGenius EnJet technology , AP can transmit data more efficiently, avoid collisions,and reduce latencyandpacketlosses.Itcanbeconfiguredasan:Access
Maximum data rates are based on IEEE 802.11 standards. Actual throughput and range may vary depending on many factors including environmental conditions, distance between devices, radio interference in the operating environment, and mix of devices in the network.

Point,ClientBridgeorWDS(AP&Station)whenEnJetenable, or Access Point, Client Bridge or WDS (AP, Station & Bridge) when EnJet disable. The EnStation5-ACv2/EnStationACv2/ ENH500v3/ENS500-ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2 is designed to operate in a variety of outdoor environments. Its highpowered, long-range characteristics make it a cost effective alternative to ordinary Access Points that don’t have the range and reach to connect to a growing number of wireless CPEs who wish to connect to a business network. The EnStation5-ACv2/EnStationACv2/ENH500v3/ENS500-
ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2 supports the 5 GHz frequency band for communicating to other 5GHz frequency bands
Access Points concurrently. Several EnStation5-ACv2/ EnStationACv2/ENH500v3/ENS500-ACv2/ENS500EXT- ACv2 can be networked in a campus setting using the 5
GHz band between countries, which is easy to be installed in virtually any location with its included PoE (Power over Ethernet) Adapter for quick outdoor installation. The EnStation5-ACv2/EnStationACv2/ENH500v3/ENS500- ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2 enables network administrators to control its transmit power and features settings for selectingVHT80bandwidthtoperformtureACtransmission.
When EnJet enable, administrators can adjust the AP time slot and Station Priority to maximize transmission efficiency. It also supports wireless encryption including
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2-PSK) Encryption and IEEE 802.1X with RADIUS.)
EnGenius EnJet Technology
EnGenius EnJet technology represents a new era in outdoor wireless solutions. The built-in EnGenius EnJet feature, based on the Time Division Multiple Access method, allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots following the EnJet scheduling protocol. This eliminates hidden node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency. The data transmission between AP and clients can have noise immunity to prevent latency and have better throughput and scalability.
EnGenius outdoor APs/CPEs with EnJet are specifically designed and engineered to network over great distances and transfer data at consistent speeds in point-to-point or point-to-multi-point wireless deployments. Quality of service priorities are given to real time and data-heavy transmission types, such as voice and video, to ensure uninterrupted streaming.
EnJet is available to enable in Access Point and WDS Access Point mode only. If EnJet is enabled, the device operates in EnJet mode and only accepts connections from EnJet devices.
EnJet Priority works when EnJet is enabled in Station mode only. Which indicates that EnJet Priority can be set on the GUI or EnWiFi App. By default the AP gives all active clients the same amount of time. However, if the clients are configured with different priorities, the AP will give clients more or less time, depending on the priority.
6
If the device is in Station mode, the device will automatically enable EnJet when it is connecting to an EnJet AP
The limitation of EnJet technology is that you cannot connect standard Wi-Fi devices, such as laptops, tablets, or smartphones to the AP when EnJet is enabled.
