Extending The Range Of Wireless Networks

Despite a radio station is limited in scope, wireless extension points can be set to increase its signal and make the network reach much larger. These wireless extension points are commonly known as repeaters.

Several companies have begun to produce wireless repeaters, even though these devices are not part of wireless. Wireless repeaters are designed to solve some problems with wireless coverage. As far away from where the wireless signal originates, the weaker the signal becomes. Finally, you can not get the signal to everyone, regardless of what equipment you have. The problem is sometimes addressed by running wires out on the network coverage is desired, then ‘every gust “from time to time using a wireless access point. This is usually more trouble than it’s worth it, because the idea behind a wireless network is to prevent the installation of cables! wireless repeaters to solve the problem in a much better.

Wireless repeaters work as a relay and receive wireless signals exist and make them stronger. This makes the scope of a larger signal at a time. If the repeaters are placed correctly, you can move computers a considerable distance from the cable network, the router or access point, for example, without failure. The only requirement of this provision is that the extension points must overlap a repeater can not repeat the signals it receives. Since wireless networking signals are essentially radio signals repeaters take all the radio signals they receive a specific frequency and power used to amplify the signals and retransmits them. The signal is not degraded in this process, so it can be repeated as many times as necessary.

Theoretically, wireless repeaters can be placed in a line of several kilometers, extending the network at the moment, and the extension because these points are not complicated technology made computers, are much cheaper than routers or access points . Some companies combine repeaters and antennas in the direction of the wireless LANs that are several miles away. This method is cheaper than taking the trouble to connect via the Internet or install their lines underground. In the future the technology could create wireless repeater covering entire cities.

As consumers are currently limited to getting your repeater of large manufacturing companies such as Linksys and D-Link. These companies call their repeaters with different names, including the range of Linksys Expander and D-Link Range Extender. There are several issues to consider when buying a wireless extension point. Most importantly, make sure it is compatible with your computer you have. Because there is no standard for wireless extension points, it is better to stick with the same company that makes the rest of your team, or at least to test whether the new team to work with the system. You should also know whether an extension point has no Ethernet port. Although this is not necessary to include, is useful if you want to link the extension of a wired network. This problem arises in the bottom if you want to connect two wireless local area networks.

Gaiacom Ltd designs, sells and hires energy efficient information technology communications installations equipment. The mission is to facilitate always on everywhere information flows to foster business efficiency and interpersonal communications.

As wireless LAN devices proliferate, the need to provide Internet connectivity extends from just indoors to outdoors. Applications such as public Internet access, VoIP, surveillance, and outdoor real time inventory control all stretch the demand for outdoor WLAN access. The Outdoor Wireless Access Solution extends WLAN range beyond the walls while maintaining enterprise-grade network security and manageability required to support mobile applications.

To cost-effectively deploy high-speed broadband and securely deliver wireless connections in open-air environments, Gaiacom products support multiple operational modes and addresses wireless security concerns with the latest industry standards-based security standards. The Outdoor Wireless Access Solution provides diverse deployment options, delivering secure network services on outdoor campuses, in indoor/outdoor warehouses, and in extreme industrial production environments.

Our mission is to make knowledge freely available by providing Internet always on everywhere in order to help make Bill Gate’s vision of information at the speed of thought a reality.

Outdoor Wireless Access

To cost-effectively deploy high-speed broadband and securely deliver wireless connections in open-air environments, each of the products supports multiple operational modes and addresses wireless security concerns with the latest industry standards-based security standards. The 4ipnet Outdoor Wireless Access Solution provides diverse deployment options, delivering secure network services on outdoor campuses, in indoor/outdoor warehouses, and in extreme industrial production environments.

Capabilities & Advantages

Outdoor Wireless Access (AP Mode)

Specifically developed for outdoor use, the fully-hardened, IP68-rated customer premises equipment and access points save additional costs of installing network cable or fibre, and can withstand dust, rain, power surges, and extreme temperatures. Solution provides resilient and ubiquitous connectivity, and serves to build high-speed wireless networks that are trusted and scalable.

Wireless Bridging and Extension (Relay Mode)

Customer premises equipment and access points support WDS bridging and leverage WLAN or AES encryption to securely extend the wireless coverage by connecting WDS-enabled network devices together – easy to link multiple sites/buildings wirelessly and securely using industrial-standard 802. 11 Wi-Fi.

Outdoor Hotspot Operation (Gateway Mode)

The built-in AAA gateway functions of access points enable specific outdoor hotspot deployments, without the need for additional subscriber gateways or authentication servers on the edge of the WLAN infrastructure. Plus, with the Multi-SSID capability, one physical OWL AP can perform as multiple virtual APs (VAPs), allowing service providers to deploy multiple hotspots in the same neighbourhood – each hotspot with its own access control policy (e. g. bandwidth control).

Large Network Deployment

For larger networks where more access points are needed to cover a wider service area, the Controllers coupled with multiple CPEs or OWL APs can instantly make outdoor WLAN networks secure, manageable, and scalable.
