About BR-300AN
BR-300AN is the wireless bridge which allows to use a non-wireless device
(10/100/1000BASE-T network device) as a wireless device. With 2.4G/5GHz band support,
various non-wireless devices can easily be connected over a wireless network.
The enterprise security feature will ensure safe and secure use of wirelss communication at
an oce, factory, etc. where a higher security is required.
8
BR-300AN User's Guide
2-1. Features
BR-300AN has the following features:
Giving unlimited locations for your non-wireless devices
As you do not have to care wiring conditions in order to establish your environment, choices of location greatly expand in any kinds of scenes such as oce, factory, school, commercial facility, etc. where the layout change is frequently required or effective layout of equipment needs to be carefully considered for a work line. Also, cost reductions is largely expected as you will no longer have to pay for wiring construction.
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n
BR-300AN supports communications at both 2.4GHz/5GHz bands. Using 5GHz band will help to avoid radio interference with 2.4GHz band which is most commonly used in the market.
Advanced security
The following security features are supported:
- WEP (64bit/128bit)
- WPA-PSK(AUTO/AES),WPA2-PSK (AES)
- IEEE 802.1X EAP-TLS, PEAP, EAP-TTLS, EAP-FAST, LEAP
Two types of operating mode
[Single Client Mode]
- Bridges a single non-wireless device connected to a LAN port of the BR-300AN over wireless network.
- For the MAC address to use for wireless LAN connection, the MAC address of the device connected to a LAN port of the BR-300AN will be used (MAC address transparent feature).
- Stops bridging when someone changed the device being connected to a wired LAN port of the BR-300AN to the other one (security feature).
[Multi-Client Mode]
- Up to 16 non-wireless devices can be bridged over wireless network if a HUB is connected to a LAN port of the BR-300AN.
- For the MAC address to use for wireless LAN connection, the MAC address of the BR­300AN will be used.

- To use the functions above, your Access Point or wireless router needs to support the same functions.
- For details on the "AMC Manager" and "AMC Finder", please visit our homepage.
- To use the "AMC Manager" and "AMC Finder", an IP address needs to be congured to the BR-300AN.
- BR-300AN can be used in Infrastructure mode only. Ad hoc mode is not supported.
On-board storage chip with 2GB memory
The operating log data can be stored in the on-board storage chip for a long period of time. This will help you to quickly resolve the troubles that may occur during the use of BR-300AN.
Easy access to the Web conguration interface
Without changing the setting of the PC you use for setup, the Web configuration interface of BR-300AN can easily be accessed.
AMC Manager (non-free program) / AMC Finder (free program)
BR-300AN supports the total management software, "AMC Manager" and "AMC Finder".
The AMC Manager provides the useful features as follows:
- Remote device control and monitoring
- Bulk conguration and rmware updates
- System time synchronization (version 3.2.0 or later)

Below sentences must be indicated on the nal product which contains this module inside. This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
Le présent appareil est conforme à la partie 15 des règles de la FCC et CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
FCC Rules Part 15 Subpart C §15.247 and Subpart E / IC RSS-102 §2.6
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from person’s body.
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles les radioélectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d'exposition et d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’IC. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé en gardant une distance de 20 cm ou plus entre le radiateur et le corps humain.
FCC Rules Part 15 Subpart E §15.407(c)
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c) Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is the passed down through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and nally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC. These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns o at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinue transmission in case of either absence of information to transmit or operational failure.

2-5. Use of Radio Waves
Notes on Usage
Do not use BR-300AN near the following devices or places.
- Microwave, scientic instruments, pacemaker or other medical equipment, etc.
- Licensed radio station in a factory
- Small power radio station (A non-licensed radio station)
These devices may use the same band. If you use BR-300AN near these devices, the radio
waves emitted from BR-300AN may interfere with them.
A cellular phone, TV and radio use a different radio band than our products. Generally,
if they are used near BR-300AN, it will not cause any problems. However, when they
approximate BR-300AN, sound or image noise may occur.
Do not use BR-300AN near a cellular phone, TV or Radio.
If there is reinforced concrete/metal between wireless devices, they may not connect.
BR-300AN can connect through wood or glass, but may have troubles connecting through
reinforced concrete/metal.
BR-300AN complies with the certification of conformance to technical standards.
Please pay attention to the following points:
- Please do not disassemble or remodel the product. Such action is prohibited by law.
- Please do not remove the certicate label. Using the product without a label is prohibited.

DS/OF2.4 4
2.4 : Wireless devices using 2.4GHz frequency band DS/OF : DS-SS or OFDM is used as modulation. 4 : The range of interference is equal to or lower than 40m.
: All bands can be used to avoid interference.
Wireless devices using 2.4GHz band
The same frequency band of BR-300AN is used for a microwave, industry, science, medical
equipment and licensed in room or low power (non-licensed) radio stations.
- Before you use BR-300AN, check that it does not interfere with other devices.
- If interference occurs, stop using BR-300AN or change the wireless band. Please
consider to create a wall between these devices to avoid interference. Contact us for
possible solution.
Notes on using 5GHz band
- Use of 5.2GHz band (W52) and 5.3GHz band (W53) outdoors is prohibited by the
radio regulations. Use only W56 channels then.

2-6. Notes on Security
Because a wireless LAN uses electromagnetic signals instead of a network cable to
establish communication with network devices, it has the advantage of allowing devices
to connect to the network easily. However, a disadvantage of this is that within a certain
range, the electromagnetic signals can pass through barriers such as walls, and if security
countermeasures are not implemented in some way, problems such as the following may
occur.
- Communication is intercepted by a third party
- Unauthorized access to the network
- Leakage of personal information (ID and Card information)
- Spoong and the falsication of intercepted data
- System crashes and data corruption
Nowadays, wireless LAN cards or access points are equipped with security measures
that address such security problems, so that you can enable security-related settings for
wireless LAN products in order to reduce the likelihood of problems occurring.
We recommend that you make yourself fully acquainted with the possible implications
of what might happen if you use a wireless product without enabling security features,
and that you congure security-related settings and use wireless products at your own
responsibility.

Single Client Mode
Use this mode when you connect a single non-wireless device to the BR-300AN. As the
MAC address and IP address of the connected device are used for wireless LAN connection,
you can use the device as if it is directly connected to a wireless LAN.
