Linksys WAP200E Overview:

Wireless-G Exterior Access Point with Power Over Ethernet High-Speed Wireless Access for Exterior Environments!

The Linksys Wireless-G Exterior Access Point lets you connect Wireless-G (802.11g) or Wireless-B (802.11b) devices to your wired network so you can add PCs to the network with no cabling hassle. This weather-proof Access Point creates a "wireless bubble" in exterior spaces, like patios and outdoor cafés. Power over Ethernet support makes it easy to install, and you can create multiple BSSIDs that connect to individual VLANs to keep your traffic separated. It's also perfect for use as a bridge, a kind of "cable-less cable" to connect remote areas together. Maybe your warehouse is in a separate building from your offices. Or maybe you need to connect the separate buildings of a college campus. With one Wireless-G Exterior Access Point on each building, you're connected at up to Wireless-G speeds – with no cable to run. The weatherproof housing (NEMA IP53 rated) protects the access point and is lightning protected.

To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Exterior Access Point supports both Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and the industrial-strength wireless security of Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA), encoding all your wireless transmissions with powerful encryption. The MAC Address filter lets you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network, and advanced logging keeps you appraised. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.

RangeBooster technology is a compatible add-on to standard Wireless-G which increases your wireless network's range up to two times, and its throughput by up to 35%. Unlike ordinary wireless technologies that are confused by signal reflections, RangeBooster uses two smart receivers at each end to detect and decode reflected signals at distances where standard technologies give up. You'll find that "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area are reduced, too.

Moreover, the integrated QoS features provide consistent voice and video quality on both the wired and wireless networks, enabling the deployment of business qualilty VoIP and video applications.

Additional features like Multiple BSSIDs, Wireless Roaming, Auto-channel selection, and Load Balancing, make this solution ideal for your Business.
