Two increased safety omni-directional high performance antennas are used, meaning coverage is greatly enhanced. They can be mounted locally on the enclosure using the brackets supplied or on a wall away from the iWAP100 electronics enclosure so they can be mounted in the optimum position for best coverage of the area.

The iWAP100 is available in many versions and can be supplied with industry leading wireless network manufacturers hardware such as Symbol AP5131 or Cisco Systems AP1200 Access Points for direct connection to ethernet hubs or switches) or the Symbol AP300 Access Port (for connection to a Symbol wireless switch) Network speed is up to 54Mbps and compliant with IEEE 802.11a, b, g and is WiFi certified.

Connection back to the safe area server is via your own IT infrastructure by either CAT5E / STP cable or fibre optic cables.

If the WLAN is outside and the antennas are at risk of lighting strikes surge suppressors can be built in to protect your network hardware. Also a heater can be installed to ensure that condensation or cold is not a problem in installations subjected to cold and high humidity.
