Introduction
The OUTDOOR BRIDGE covers a large operating distance, providing an
802.11a/b/g outdoor WLAN which enables users to access the Internet or an
organization’s network.
At up to five times the speed of previous wireless devices, you can work faster
and more efficiently, increasing productivity. With the OUTDOOR BRIDGE,
bandwidth-intensive applications like graphics or multimedia will benefit
significantly because large files are able to move across the network quickly.
TheOUTDOOR BRIDGE features a die-cast watertight housing and a built-in
lightning protector to protect the access point from harsh environmental
conditions, including extreme variance in temperature. It also includes Power
over Ethernet (POE) and a unique outdoor remote-mounted design for easy
installation. With two mounting kits, you have the option of either pole or wall
mounting.
The OUTDOOR BRIDGE is suitable for manufacturing plants, industrial sites,
military bases, universities, hotels, airports and golf courses.
The OUTDOOR BRIDGE has Dual Radio functionality for simultaneous AP
and Bridge operations for backhaul applications.
Configurable in four different modes (access point, bridge, multi-point bridge,
and wireless client), the OUTDOOR BRIDGE offers 128-bit encryption, WPA
and 802.1X authentication when used with a RADIUS server, MAC address
access control, and additional security features.

Features and Benefits
Features the benefit of Robust Outdoor Housing - Designed for harsh
outdoor environments, with die-cast, watertight housing, built-in heater and
temperature sensor
High Performance Dual Radio usage for simultaneous operations of AP and
Bridge for backhaul applications. The dual radio can be configures for AP
and Bridge ; AP and AP ; Bridge and Bridge for various applications
Features the benefits of repeating up to 6 MAC ID for each radio, therefore
ability to repeat up to 12 MAC ID with dual radio functionality for great
coverage and benefits
4 Different Operation modes with WDS (Wireless Distribution System) –
Capable of operating in one of four different operation modes to meet your
wireless networking requirements: access point (AP), Point-to-Point (PtP)
bridge, Point-to-multipoint (PtMP) bridge, Repeater.
Embedded DHCP Server automatically assigns IP addresses to wireless
clients.
Connect networks in different buildings when used in conjunction with
high-gain outdoor antennas.
Easy Installation with PoE.
Compatible with IEEE802.11g standards to provide a wireless data rate of
up to 54Mbps.*
Backward compatible with the 802.11b standard to provide a wireless
data rate of up to 11Mbps with 802.11b devices - that means you can migrate
your system to the 802.11g standard on your own schedule without sacrificing
connectivity.
Better security with WPA and 802.1X- The OUTDOOR BRIDGE can
securely connect to wireless clients on the network using WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) providing a much higher level of security for your data and
communications than has previously been available. In conjunction with a
RADIUS server, 802.1X authentication verifies the identity of would-be clients.
Communicate between IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g bands - Optional
configuration allows communication between bands.
Two mounting kits - Gives you the flexibility of either wall or pole outdoor
mounting.

Using the Configuration Menu
To configure the OUTDOOR BRIDGE, use a computer which is connected to
the OUTDOOR BRIDGE with an Ethernet cable (see the Network Layout
diagram).
First, disable the Access the Internet using a proxy server function. To
disable this function, go to Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections
> LAN Settings and uncheck the enable box.
Start your web browser program (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator) .
Type the IP address and http port of the OUTDOOR BRIDGE in the address
field
(http://192.168.2.254) and press Enter. Make sure that the IP addresses of the
OUTDOOR BRIDGE and your computer are in the same subnet.

LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal network.
These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the OUTDOOR BRIDGE.
These settings may be referred to as private settings. You may change the
LAN IP address if needed.
IP address: The default IP address is 192.168.2.254. Assign a static IP
address that is within the IP address range of your network.
IP netmask: Enter the subnet mask. All devices in the network must share the
same subnet mask..
IP gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway in your network.

Encryption
The OUTDOOR BRIDGE has the newest, strongest and most advanced
security features available today. When used with other 802.11 WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) compatible products in a network with a RADIUS server,
the security features include:
WPA & 802.1x represent the first line of defense against network intrusion. In
the authentication process the RADIUS server verifies the identity of the client
attempting to connect to the network. Unfamiliar clients will be denied access.
EAP(Extensible Authentication Protocol) is available through the Windows XP
Operating System. You will need to use the same type of EAP protocol on all
the devices in your network when using the 802.1x feature.

19
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a
secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000
packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This
ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast,
the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be
changed manually.)
WPA-PSK allows home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in
their network, access to WPA security. Utilizing the Pre-Shared Key mode of
WPA, the OUTDOOR BRIDGE will obtain a new security key every time it
connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your encryption
information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to
manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the
OUTDOOR BRIDGE and WPA-PSK, you will automatically receive a new key
every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communication.
