Chapter 1 Product Overview

DS-3WF03C-D is a powerful WIFI Bridge/AP/CPE device, which allows WIFI access and
video/audio/data transmission device, enables long-range, fast speed and robust
wireless connections. Integrated with Hikvision’s XTrans technology, DS-3WF03C-D has
the advantages of long-distance, high-throughput, and Strong anti-interference.

XTrans technologies include TDMA, 5M/10M/20M/40MHz bandwidth, intelligent rate
control, Auto ACK Time-Out Adjust and so on. TDMA technology solves the problems of
hidden-node problem in the 802.11 network. 5M/10M/20M/40MHz bandwidth can be
flexibly configured by the uses in different working scenario to achieve the best link
quality. Intelligent rate control algorithm can be adapted to quick channel quality
variations automatically, thus stabilizing the wireless throughput. ACK Time-Out Auto
Adjust can automatically detect the distances of the DS-3WF03C-D devices, and thus
adjust the wireless parameters to achieve the best wireless link quality.

The longest transmission range and max speed of DS-3WF03C-D can be as high as 5Km
and 300Mbps, making it suitable for many applications of WIFI Bridge/CPE, especially
have advantages for point-to-multi-point communication.

13.1 Product Advantages

The DS-3WF03C-D has the industrial leading technology, owing the performance
capability of a wireless base station with only a small form factor, furthermore, it has
very attractive low cost.

DS-3WF03C-D has the following advantages compared to the competitors:

1. Embedded XTrans technology

DS-3WF03C-D devices is embedded with XTrans technology, including TDMA,
5/10/20/40MHz bandwidth, intelligent rate control, Auto ACK Time-out adjust. They
make the device have longer transmission distance, higher throughput and better point­to-multi-point performance.

2. Longer transmission distance, higher throughput

The longest transmission distance of DS-3WF03C-D can be as far as 5 km, and the max
throughput can be 300Mbps. It can satisfy the needs of most of the applications.

User Manual of DS-3WF03C-D Outdoor Video Wireless Network Bridge

3. Embedded hardware watchdog

DS-3WF03C-D is embedded with hardware watchdog, which is used to monitor the
working status of the device. Once the system is not working properly, the DS-3WF03C­D device can be rebooted to guarantee the stability of the system.

4. Software Ping watchdog function

DS-3WF03C-D software ping watchdog function enable the device periodically ping
another device associated to, so that it can detect if the system is working well. If the
wireless link is lost or there is any problem, the device is rebooted. This is important
because the devices can be restored to work automatically if there is any problem, and
avoid the extra human labour to maintain the outdoor devices.

5. Outdoor industrial product

DS-3WF03C-D device can work at all kinds of outdoor severe environments, including ­30 to 70 degree temperature, 5% to 95% humidity, while maintain good performance.
