1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The WH-9200AP is a dream device for WISP to build their wireless networks. The AP features 2
Atheros 11a/b/g radios that run in 5GHz or 2.4GHz frequency band. Moreover, it provides hi-power at
11a mode for extra long distance application. There is an intergra ded 802.3af POE port to let you run
the AP at up to 100 meter distance away from the power source.
Dual Wireless + Hi Power + 2 LAN Ports
The WH-9200AP is equipped with 2 high-powered Atheros radios. The radio 1 runs in the 11a 5GHz
mode only while the radio 2 runs at the 11a/b/g dual band mode. AirLive adds high power amplifier to
run the AP at 23dBm in 11a mode (200mW), that’s 4 times the output power of normal 11a radio
(50mW). In addition, 2 programmable LAN ports are available for multi-mod e AP/Gateway
configuration.
Multiple Operation Modes
The WH-9200AP can operate in multiple wireless modes for differe nt application environme nts such as
Dual AP, Dual WDS, Duplex link aggregation, Separate Bridge, AP + Clie nt, AP + WDS, WDS +
Gateway, AP + Gateway, and AP + WISP. These modes can be changed and configured easily by the
Web user interface.

PSE and operate at up to 100 meter away.
VLAN & QoS
WH-9200AP provides Multi-SSID to create different wireless networks using one AP. The TAG VLAN
feature allows service provider to control service content of each
to core router . The QoS feature allows prioritizing the different package according the 802.11e WMM
protocol and triple play (Voice, Video and Data). Bandwidth control feature allo w WH-9200AP to limit
the bandwidth on distinct IP/MAC or on the total device.
