Product Introduction

ProductOverview

The ZTE ZXV10 W615 broadband wireless access product operates at 2.4
GHz, 5.2 GHz and 5.8 GHz frequency bands and complies with IEEE 802.11a,

802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n protocols. The device adopts the Orthogonal
Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology. Featuring a
transmission speed of up to 300 Mbps, high receiving sensitivity, and long
transmission distance, it provides a powerful wireless access solution for
telecommunication operators, Internet Service Provider (ISP) and other
enterprises.

By supporting multiple encryption mechanisms and authority management
functions, the ZXV10 W615 provides a highly secure system for Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN).

By supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE), ZXV10 W615 acquires convenient
power supply.

TypicalApplication

The device is typically used in the following scenarios:

• Small and medium-sized enterprises

To realize wireless coverage and meet mobile office requirements.

• Remote access to the company network.

To receive and send E-mails, transmit files, emulate terminals, and others.
The device supports various wireless network connection modes, such as
point-to-point connection, single access point connection, multiple access
point connection, and roaming. It can apply to various application
environments, such as connection within an Intranet and between different
networks.

• An environment where it is difficult to establish a connection through

network cables
To be used in places where cabling is difficult, such as an old building and
