A community portal about Wireless LAN with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: A wireless LAN or WLAN is a wireless local area network, which is the linking of two or more computers without using wires. WLAN utilizes spread-spectrum technology based on radio waves to enable communication between devices in a limited area, also known as the basic service set. This gives users the mobility to move around within a broad coverage area and still be connected to the network.

Kilometres of wireless internet with a single transmitter

The Ennoble Consultancy Ruggedized Ennoble 802.11g Outdoor Wi-Fi Base Station offers up to 54Mpbs data-rates to large outdoor areas to significantly lower the cost of deployment for large scale Wi-Fi networks.

Benefits

Lowest cost network deployments using EC Wi-Fi architecture

- Increased coverage area reduces equipment cost and installation time

- Simplified management and maintenance with dramatically reduced device count

- Secure network access through robust security features and rogue AP detection

Functionality

EC Wi-Fi Coverage Large

The smart antenna Base Station combines PacketSteeringTM technology and a phased array antenna to provide up to 12 times the coverage area of industrial-grade Wi-Fi products.

This approach enables a new outdoor Wi-Fi deployment architecture with fewer Wi-Fi devices, rather than managing many Wi-Fi Access Points, resulting in a system that is easier to manage and secure.

Suitable deployment environments:

- University and education campuses

- Government and Military facilities

- Logistics facilities

- Resorts and Hotels

- Outdoor sports facilities - Seaports, Airports, Train terminals

The Ennoble Wi-Fi Base Station utilizes a smart antenna to form 6 narrow beams of Wi-Fi that transmit 802.11b/g packets to standard Wi-Fi clients. The Base Station provides connectivity to the Internet at speeds up to 54Mbps over much greater areas than with traditional Wi-Fi products because it uses its entire phased array antenna to receive low- power transmissions from distantly located clients.

Deployed as a system, the system supports up to 24 common AP/Bridges via Wireless Distribution System (WDS) links to extend the Wi-Fi coverage area, to fill in coverage gaps, or to add capacity. Flexible network architectures of EC provide comprehensive outdoor coverage for even the most demanding deployments.
