Introduction to the RW8300 (USB) Universal Adapter Products
Radicom Research’s RW8300 (USB) series is all new Wi-Fi/LAN with USB Host or USB
Device. It is the perfect networking center solution for embedded system to integrate Wi-Fi,
Ethernet, BLE, or USB into a single platform. The AIO (All-In-One) networking capability
provides many functions, such as single port router, Wi-Fi adapter, Ethernet adapter,
Hotspot, Wi-Fi Repeater or WLAN bridge, BLE single mode, BLE dual mode, and with
USB host capability for various applications.
It can turn any Ethernet LAN port to a WiFi hotspot or connect PC or Laptop into a WiFi
Wireless Access Point. Any WiFi Device such as iPhone, iPod, PDA, within range can
connect to Internet by sharing your RW8300 (USB) Access Point.
The RW8300 (USB) series is a full embedded system. It does not require CPU host when
using as single port router or hotspot mode. This versatile RW8300 (USB) series of
products offers easy integration for additional BLE single mode or dual mode module to
meet the specific system requirements.
For RW8300 (USB-Device), please see RW8300 (USB-Device) Designer’s Guide for details.
For RW8300 (Serial), please see RW8300 (Serial) Designer’s Guide for detail
Please note that RW8300 firmware for USB Host and USB Device are not compatible.
