Introduction
FX-DS110-APL 1
1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the FX-DS110-APL access point.
This product is a wireless LAN access point using the 2.4GHz
spectrum diffusion system, and is compatible with IEEE Standard
802.11b for wireless LAN.
The FX-DS110-APL is designed for use as an access point as well
as a station (Ethernet wireless converter). It is independent of
operating systems or protocols, so that it can be connected by UTP
cable to any Ethernet-compatible desktop computer, workstation,
point-of-sale terminal, printer, etc. for immediate wireless LAN use.
This product can also enable wireless communications from any PC
previously unsuitable for wireless communications due to lack of a
PC card slot or expansion bus slot.
Of course the FX-DS110-APL also operates as an access point,
allowing the user to configure a small wireless LAN system using
the product by itself.
This document explains how to use the FX-DS110-APL. Be sure to
read it carefully so that you can use the product correctly.
Features
-Ultra-compact antenna (micro access point)
Space-saving design allows installation anywhere (wall, magnet,
desktop)
-Operates as a LAN station
-Optional power supply from LAN cable
Uses compact, lightweight AC adapter.
-Full range of functions (roaming, 11 or 13-channel support)
-Automatic transmission speed (wireless) switching
Automatically switches transmission speeds from 11Mbps to
5.5Mbps, 2Mbps, 1Mbps according to conditions.
-Built-in SNMP agent
Uses SNMP compatible software for easy network management.
-Can be used with higher level model FX-DS110-APE.
