LongSpan Wireless Ethernet Extender, Indoor/Outdoor Radio
<b>Quick Facts</b>
- Extends Ethernet wirelessly over very long distances—up to 40 miles (line-of-sight).
- Superior penetration through walls and foliage.
- 900-MHz bandwidth requires no FCC license and won't interfere with Wi-Fi.
- NEMA 4x rated for indoor or outdoor use.
- Powered through PoE or AC power adapter for convenient installation.
<b>Further Details</b>
LongSpan 900-MHz Wireless Ethernet Extenders provide a great way to extend an Ethernet network where installing cable is impractical or prohibitively expensive, and Wi-Fi is ineffective.
Because LongSpan covers very long distances, it can provide a link where ordinary 802.11a/b/g wireless can't go. Outdoors, it has a range of up to 40 miles line of sight or up to 1500 feet through trees. Indoors, it will penetrate up to 10 building walls.
LongSpan is ideal for a wide range of applications such as:
- Providing links to far-flung security cameras or door-access controls.
- Linking to VoIP phones in remote locations such as security stations.
- Linking interbuilding networks in a very large installation or in a rural setting such as a park.
- Linking to distant sensors and controls, such as a weather station.
- Extending the reach of an 802.11 wireless network across a large facility such as an airport or a military base.
<b>Indoor/Outdoor Radio</b>
This tough 900-MHz radio is the core of the LongSpan system. Use it with just the included antenna or add an antenna for increased range. You can buy the Indoor/Outdoor Radio separately or as a part of the Integrated Radio and Directional Antenna (LS900PKA) or one of our LongSpan Surveillance Solutions. The LongSpan Indoor/Outdoor Radio works in point-to-point, multipoint, or broadcast applications.
Power the radio through the Ethernet cable using Power over Ethernet (PoE) or with the included AC power adapter.
The radio is IP addressable; the convenient Web browser interface enables you to manage and control the radio through your network. Use your Web browser to access the built-in spectrum analyzer to view signal strength and monitor radio channel activity. And, of course, the radio features 128-bit AES encryption to keep out unwanted snoops.
The LongSpan Indoor/Outdoor Radio is NEMA 4x rated for indoor or outdoor use. It provides protection against falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water, and hose-directed water. The unit is corrosion resistant and is unharmed by ice on the outside of the enclosure. It operates in a wide temperature range of -40° to +158° F. A built-in lightning arrestor guards against outages caused by nearby lightning strikes (of course, nothing can protect against a direct lightning strike).
