Cisco Aironet 340 Series — Ethernet Bridges
Designed to connect two or more networks (typically located in different buildings), Cisco Aironet wireless bridges deliver high data rates and superior throughput for data-intensive, line-of-sight applications. The high-speed links between Cisco Aironet wireless bridges deliver throughput faster than E1/T1 lines for a fraction of the cost — eliminating the need for expensive and difficult-to-install leased lines or fiber-optic cable. The initial hardware investment can be quickly paid for with the money saved on leased-line service. Wireless bridges connect discrete sites into a single LAN, even when they`re separated by obstacles such as freeways, railroads, and bodies of water that are practically insurmountable for copper and fiber-optic cable. Key Features and Benefits Cisco Aironet 340 Series Direct Sequence Ethernet Bridge
Cisco Systems, with proven reliability and robust product design, provides a dependable, high-performance solution for IS professionals. Remote bridges connect hard-to-wire sites, noncontiguous floors, satellite offices, school or corporate campus settings, temporary networks, and warehouses. Aironet wireless bridges also allow multiple sites to share a single, high-speed connection to the Internet. Understanding the security requirements of both small business and the enterprise, Cisco provides up to 128-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WEP`s integrated with standard authentication features providing a level of data security equal to traditional wired networks. Aironet wireless bridges are flexible, supporting high data rates over medium and short ranges or lower data rates for long-range support. Easy to install and configure, the bridges are compact and unobtrusive and can be redeployed quickly as network requirements or company locations change. Designed with the Cisco award-winning direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) 3 radio frequency technology, Aironet bridges are not affected by bad weather and require no FCC (or applicable agency) license. Configuration and management options include direct console or remote configuration via Telnet, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) or browser graphical user interface (GUI). An enhanced Management Information Base (MIB) allows network managers to choose from a variety of SNMP-compliant network management packages. The Cisco Aironet 340 series bridge also supports configuration and management via generally available scripting tools. Other features include support for 802.1 Spanning-Tree protocol and advanced diagnostics to simplify troubleshooting.
Cisco Aironet 340 Series — Workgroup Bridges 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. Key Features and Benefits 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 theenterprise, 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. The workgroup bridge:
