may cause harmful interference to radio

communication. Operation of this equipment in

residential area is likely to cause harmful

interference in which case the user will be required

to correct the interference at this own expense.

The user should not modify or change this

equipment without written approval from company

name. Modification could void authority to use this

equipment.

For the safety reason, people should not work in a

situation which RF Exposure limits be exceeded.

To prevent the situation happening, people who

work with the antenna should be aware of the

following rules:

1). In case the accesspoiont is operating with its integral

antenna, or when oprating with range extender model

AIN-WB-OD-B, position the system in such a way,

that 20cm seperation can be secured between antenna
and human body.

2). When using any other antenna, which is not mentioned

under 1), special measures have to be taken: the antenna

must be installed by a professional and situated in a location
where a distance of 1m can be secured towards any human

body. Read the external antenna intallation documentation for

essential details regarding conditions and operation.

3). While installing the antenna in the location, please always
turn off the power of the accesspoint.

4). While the device is working, please do not contact

the antenna.

Product variants that support 5.15 ~ 5.25 GHz frequency
range, are not equipped with external antenna connector

and are restricted for indoor use only!

The transmitter must not be co-located or operate in

conjucntion with any other antenna or transmitter.

We declare that AP-AG-AT-01 (Flanker Pro Single Radio

AP) is limited in the 2.4GHz band on CH1~11 by specified

firmware controlled in USA.

Chapter 1 Introduction

The next-generation wireless LAN device – 54Mbps Wireless Access Point,

are specially designed for Enterprise applications, offering campus-wide

connections between buildings at a speed of up to 54Mbps.

With simply one or two Access Points and wireless adaptors, users can build a

clean and neat wireless network in offices without too much effort. With a

wireless networking environment, everyone can get the access to the Internet

anytime, anywhere in offices.

Going wireless has advantages: It relieves you of the chore of drilling holes

and snaking Ethernet wires through walls and floors. Going wireless has

advantages for desk-bound purchase, too: It relieves you of the chore of

drilling holes and snaking Ethernet wires through walls and floors. In the

wireless environment, you can pick up your notebook with a wireless PC Card

installed, and get free to read e-mail, download files or surf the Web while

sitting anywhere.

With several Access Points, users can solve the problem to build LANs in

frequently changed environments, such as open space, show rooms, meeting

rooms, and manufacturing sites that are frequently rearranged. With

embedded Mini-PCI cards, and wireless PC cards, it is convenient for mobile

workers such as doctors, nurses, and sales to get access to existed databases

and networks anytime anywhere.

Fully compliant with IEEE802.11a/g standard, the Wireless Access Point

provides powerful features such as the Windows-based configuration utility,

MAC address filtering, WEP security and more.

1-1 Features and Benefits

• Detachable antenna allows you for the use of external high gain

antenna.

• With a data rate of 54 Mbps, the system is faster than an E1/T1 data

link.

• Fully IEEE 802.11a/g compatible. Allow inter-operation among multiple

vendors.

• Technique operating in the unlicensed 2.4GHz & 5GHz ISM band.

• Seamless roaming within the 802.11a & 802.11g wireless LAN

5

infrastructure.

• Provides user authentication to enforce tight security.

• MAC address control.

• Highly efficient antenna provides a range of operation up to 800 feet in

free space.

• Easy to install and friendly to user, just plug and play!

• Provides Window-based configuration utility.

• Tight design with light weight, compact size, and low power

consumption.

1-2 Applications

Wireless Infrastructure

In a wireless infrastructure, the access point acts as a bridge. The access point

connects the wireless clients together.The Access Point acts as a center point

for all wireless communications. This would increase efficiency of the

communications since the wireless adapters do not need to be within direct

range of each other.

Wireless Infrastructure with Stations Attaching to a Wired LAN

The 802.11a/g WLAN Access Point will provide an access to the local

LAN. LAN integration of wireless and wired LAN is called an

Infrastructure configuration. A group of wireless LAN PC users and an

Access Point construct a Basic Service Set (BSS). Each wireless PC in

this BSS can talk to each other on your network via the Access Point.
