In-Building or Building-to-Building Wireless Solutions the Cisco Aironet Workgroup Bridge Series provides Flexible Wireless Network Connections for up to Eight Ethernet Devices. Designed to meet the needs of mobile users, remote workgroups or satellite offices, the Cisco Aironet 340 series workgroup bridge links up to eight Ethernet clients to a wireless LAN. Equipped with a standard Ethernet connector, the workgroup bridge connects to a single Ethernet device or, for up to eight devices, to a 10BaseT (RJ45) port of an Ethernet hub. The workgroup bridge communicates with Cisco Aironet 340 series access points or wireless bridges. The workgroup bridge quickly connects an Ethernet-enabled laptop or other portable computer to a network and provides a plug-and-play solution for e-mail and Internet access. No drivers need to be installed, making it an ideal solution for the business traveler. Any Ethernet-ready device, including printers, copiers, PCs, point- of-sale devices, or monitoring equipment, can be placed directly at the point of work using the workgroup bridge-without the expense or delay of cabling. For temporary classrooms or temporary office space, the workgroup bridge provides flexible, easy network access for up to eight devices. Equipment can be easily moved as workgroups change in number or location, lowering facilities costs. In a campus environment, the workgroup bridge connects workgroups in separate buildings, quickly and economically. The workgroup bridge can be located up to 10 miles away (about half of the distance of a wireless bridge) with clear line-of-sight from a Cisco Aironet 340 series wireless bridge by using an optional long-range antenna. The workgroup bridge eliminates cable installation costs and allows for quick redeployment of equipment when expanding or moving to a new location. The workgroup bridge is available with a single omnidirectional dipole antenna. An option with two RP-TNC (reverse polarity threaded naval connector) connectors is also available for applications that require antenna diversity or higher-gain antennas for long-range applications. Using direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) technology, the workgroup bridge operates in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz band and supports data rates up to 11 Mbps. Understanding the security requirements of small- and medium-sized businesses as well as the enterprise, Cisco provides 40-bit and 128-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) to provide data security equal to traditional wired networks. Other features include advanced diagnostic tools to simplify troubleshooting, remote system configuration and management via browser, Telnet, FTP or SNMP.| Product Description | Cisco Aironet 342 Workgroup Bridge - wireless bridge | | Device Type | Wireless bridge | | Enclosure Type | External | | Dimensions (WxDxH) | 12 cm x 3.7 cm x 16 cm | | Weight | 0.5 kg | | Data Link Protocol | IEEE 802.11b | | Network / Transport Protocol | TCP/IP | | Remote Management Protocol | SNMP, Telnet, HTTP | | Features | Manageable |
