RangeLAN2 Ethernet Access
Point
Product Overview
Take Your Network with You
Install
RangeLAN2 Ethernet and Token Ring Access Points (APs)
as your wirefree network backbone, and you can access
e-mail, the corporate Intranet or other valuable network resources from
anywhere in your office or campus. No need to disconnect just because you're
moving to the conference room down the hall. True mobile computing is a reality
with wirefree solutions from Proxim.
And Proxim Access Points make it easy. With
comprehensive management features, easy installation, exceptional durability
and reliability, and outstanding performance, you can extend your wired network
simply and easily.
Simple to Configure, Manage and Use
A comprehensive suite of software tools means worry-free
installation and management of your wirefree network.
The Proxim Site Survey tool shows the coverage of
each Access Point, so you install only the infrastructure you need. After
installation, manage your wirefree network using a
variety of tools you're already familiar with - SNMP agents that work with your
existing enterprise management platforms, or the simple web-based graphical
RangeLAN2 ManagerTM that allows you to see the entire
wirefree network and client traffic for each Access
Point. And should you need to, you can even change
configuration parameters or upgrade software for the entire wirefree
infrastructure with a single click of the mouse.
Designed for
Wirefree networking is all about the freedom to roam. Proxim RangeLAN2 APs give your
mobile users seamless connectivity to the network as
they move about the building or campus. Unlike other solutions, there are no
annoying pauses in applications or the need to reconfigure as you move from
place to place. Proxim PC Cards automatically sense
the best connection and switch seamlessly to it with no user interruption. And
that connection lasts all day long with
Wirefree Connectivity for Almost
Any Device
We understand that it's not just laptops you'd like to connect to
the network. Printers, barcode scanners, industrial equipment, vehicles - almost anything that can move or be moved has a
network connection these days. Proxim gives you the
widest range of wirefree client connectivity options.
Not just PC Cards for laptops, but also PCI adapters for desktops, Ethernet
adapters for workstations, Apple or any other 10BaseT-enabled device and RS-232
adapters for industrial and manufacturing equipment. And OpenAir™
compatibility means that you have the widest range of interoperable solutions
for almost any environment.
Access for Authorized Users Only
All RangeLAN2
APs include multiple security levels so only
authorized users can access the network - frequency hopping spread spectrum
signaling, synchronization, authentication and authorized user lists. Frequency
hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology was originally used by military
organizations because of its inherent advantage against detection and decoding.
Synchronization is a unique quality of FHSS systems that gives it an inherent
advantage over other spread spectrum systems. Unlike other spread spectrum
systems, synchronization means eavesdropping is impossible without a properly
'tuned' radio. Client authentication and authorized user lists further enhance
the security properties of your network.
