Version 1.0

1 Introduction

EOC2611P is a long range outdoor wireless Access Point / Client Bridge that operates seamlessly in the 2.4GHz frequency spectrum and provides high bandwidth up to 108Mbps with Super G. With dual polarization antenna, it features high transmitted output power and high receivable sensitivity. High output power and high sensitivity can extend range and coverage to reduce the roaming between Access Points to get a more stable wireless connection. It also reduces the expense of equipment in the same environment. With IPx4 protection, it can provide effective in keeping out water.

It supports distance control by 1km to 30km and RSSI indicator which enables the best transmit and receive signals for traffic communication. This product comes with PoE injector for building in outdoor environment easily.

To protect your wireless connectivity, it can encrypt all wireless transmissions through 64/128/152 bit WEP data encryption and also supports WPA/WPA2. The MAC address filter lets you select exactly which stations should have access to your network. In addition, the User Isolation function can protect the private network between client users.

The attractive design, high performance, and array of features make EOC2611P a suitable wireless solution for your residence or office.

1.4 Applications

The wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs:

a)Difficult to wire environments

There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive.

b)Temporary workgroups

Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disaster recovery, temporary offices and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed.

c)The ability to access real time information

Doctors/nurses, point of sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information.

d)Frequently changing environments

Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the workplace.

e)Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks

Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs.

f)Wired LAN backup

Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission critical applications running on wired networks.

g)Training/Educational facilities

Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning.

2 Understanding the Hardware

` Wireless Security – Security Mode : WEP

``Security Mode: Select WEP from the drop down list if your wireless network uses WEP encryption. WEP is an acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, and is a security protocol that provides the same level of security for wireless networks as for a wired network.

``Authentication Type: Select an authentication method. Options available are Open Key, Shared Key. An open system allows any client to authenticate as long as it conforms to any MAC address filter policies that may have been set. All authentication packets are transmitted without encryption. Shared Key sends an unencrypted challenge text string to any device attempting to communicate with the Access Point. The device requesting authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it back to the Access Point. If the challenge text is encrypted correctly, the Access Point allows the requesting device to authenticate.

``Input Type: Select Hex or ASCII from the drop down list

``Key Length: Select a key format from the drop down list. 64bit hex keys require 10 characters, where as 128 bit keys require 26 characters and 152 bit keys require 32 characters. A hex key is defined as a number between 0 through 9 and letter between A through F and a through f.

``Default Key: You may use up to four different keys for four different networks. Select the current key that will be used.

``Key 1 4: You may enter four different WEP keys.

` Wireless Security – Security Mode : WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK, WPA PSK Mixed

``Security Mode: Select WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK, or WPA PSK Mixed from the drop down list if your wireless network uses WPA pre shared key.

``Encryption: Select TKIP, AES or Auto from the drop down list if your wireless network uses this encryption. WPA (Wi Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to work with existing Wi Fi products that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides improved data encryption through the Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven’t been tampered with. AES is an even more advanced method of encryption which offers the highest level of WPA/WPA2 security.

``Passphrase: Specify a passphrase that is shared amongst the Access Points and clients.

``Group Key Update Interval: Specify the number of seconds after which the Access Point will probe the client for the passphrase.

Protection Mode: If your wireless network is using both 802.11b and 802.g devices then it is recommended to enable this feature so that the 802.11b devices will not degrade the performance of 802.11g devices.

WMM: Enable wireless Quality of Service

Distance (1 30km): Specify a distance between 1 and 30Km.

Channel Bandwidth: For different application, you can select 20MHz, 10MHz or 5MHz channel bandwidth.

Wireless Traffic Shaping: Specify the maximum bandwidth allocated to Incoming and Outgoing traffic.
