Long Range Wireless Access Point / Client Bridge Version 1.0
1 Introduction
EOC1650 is a long range outdoor wireless Access Point and Client Bridge that operates
seamlessly in the 2.4GHz frequency spectrum.
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.
It supports distance range from 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-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 EOC1650 a suitable
wireless solution for your residence or office.
This chapter describes the features, package contents, applications, and network
configuration.

Long Range Wireless Access Point / Client Bridge Version 1.0
PC/AT compatible computer with an Ethernet interface.
Operating system that supports HTTP web-browser
1.5 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, disasterrecovery, 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 changed environments
Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where
frequently rearrange the workplace.
e) Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks
SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small
network.
f) 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.
g) Wired LAN backup
Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for missioncritical applications running on wired networks.
h) Training/Educational facilities
Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless
connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and
learning.
