Overview the Product
Introduction
The AIRNET 300 Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridges Point to Point kit is an optimal solution
for a large number of applications. In its simplest form, it can be deployed by many
organizations to provide Ethernet extensions (i.e. LAN-to-LAN) between two locations. In
its most advanced configurations, the AIRNET 300Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridge Point
to Point kit is able to provide a complete infrastructure that enables companies of all sizes
to connect their remote sites to the headquarters, thus allowing the simultaneous
transmission of multi-protocol services such as voice, video and data. This family of
solutions can also be deployed by mobile operators requiring multi-megabit capacity for
their backhaul links.
The AIRNET 300Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridge Point to Point kit operates in the 5.1 to
5.8 GHz Unlicensed Frequency Band and 4.9GHz Public Safety Band, and comes
complete with a set of accessories to ease outdoor installations. As the most cost
effective point to point solution from AIRNET family, any deployment will enjoy a quick
return on investment.
The AIRNET 300Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridge Point to Point kit is the
easiest toinstall family of broadband wirelessbridges on the market.
To protect your security and privacy, the AIRNET 300Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridge Point
to Point kit is armed with many enhanced and latest wireless security features such
as IEEE 802.11i standards, MAC Address Filtering, IEEE 802.1x Authentication and
64/128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) to ensure privacy within the same wireless
network.
The AIRNET 300 Mb 4.9-5.8GHz MIMO Bridges Point to Point kit also incorporates a
unique set of advanced features such as: Long-Range parameter fine-tuning which
provide the access point with the ability to auto-calculate parameters such as slot time,
ACK time-out and CTS time-out to achieve a longer range.
Depending on the model, some model will have less hardware features. All the software functions
are the same.

Features and Benefits
Point-to-Point Support
Point-to-Point communication between different buildings enables you to bridge wireless
clients while unifying the networks.
Highly Secured Wireless Network
The AIR-PTP6000L supports the highest available wireless security standard:
IEEE802.11i compliant. The AIR-PTP6000L also supports IEEE 802.1x for secure and
centralized user-based authentication. Wireless clients are thus required to authenticate
through highly secure methods like EAP-TTLS and EAP-PEAP, in order to obtain access
to the network.
uConfig Utility
The exclusive uConfig utility allows users to access the user-friendly Web configuration
interface of the access point without having to change the TCP/IP setup of the
workstation.
HTTPS
The AIR-PTP6000L supports HTTPS (SSL) in addition to the standard HTTP.
HTTPS (SSL) features additional authentication and encryption for secure
communication.
Telnet
Telnet allows a computer to remotely connect to the access point CLI (Command
Line Interface) for control and monitoring.
SSH
SSH (Secure Shell Host) establishes a secure host connection to the access point
CLI for control and monitoring.

Operation Modes and Connection Examples
Access Point and Access Point WDS Mode
The Access Point Mode is the default mode of the AIR-PTP600. It enables the bridging of
wireless clients to wired network infrastructure and enables transparent access and
communication with each other.
The illustration below shows a typical resources sharing application example using this
device. The wireless users are able to access the file server connected to the switch,
through the AIR-PTP600 in Access Point Mode.
Access Point WDS Mode
This operating mode is generally used for point-to-point or point-to-multi-point connection.
It is mainly used with Station WDS to build the point and multi-point connections.

Station Mode
In Station mode the AIR-PTP600 acts as a wireless client.
When connected to an access point, it creates a network link between the Ethernet
network connected at the AIR-PTP600, and the wireless Ethernet network connected at
the access point.
In this example the workgroup PCs on the Ethernet network connected to the Station
device can access the printer across the wireless connection to the access point where the
printer is connected.
