Lucent Orinoco AP-1000 Wireless Access Point. The Lucent Orinoco AP-1000 Access Point is a dual channel IEEE 802.11b Wi-Fi compliant 11 Mbit/s wireless Access Point that operates on the license-free 2.4 GHz band. It allows the expanded network to be balanced over two channels. The AP-1000 extends the range of a cabled Ethernet network, providing easy network access to both mobile users and locations that are difficult to wire. It features dual PCMCIA card slots to accept the Wireless WLAN cards. It is also ideal for use by ISPs to offer high-speed Internet access to customers. Typically three but as many as four radio channels can be used at a WIPOP with a properly designed base antenna system. The Lucent Orinoco AP1000 is interoperable with other manufacturers' 802.11 DSSS compliant equipment such as Terabeam Wireless's GoWirelessData client product line.
Features:
- Offers wireless LAN access in an office or campus environment.
- In large open areas like warehouses and retail stores, the architecture supports a wireless-to-wireless bridging feature. This allows you to build an extension to your wireless network without expanding the wired backbone.
- Ideal for use at WIPOPs to offer high-speed Internet access on the 2.4GHz license-free band.
- Protects against access by unauthorized stations via an Access Control Table ("White" List).
- Supports Roaming as clients move between Access points.
- Has excellent radio site survey tools which shows both receive and noise signal levels.
- Dual PCMCIA card slots provide flexibility in the use of WLAN cards. An upgrade to newer radio technology can be established very easily with a swap of the WLAN PC card, protecting your investment in the ORiNOCO infrastructure.
- The use of two WLAN cards allows each card to operate on two different radio channels.
- Windows based SNMP compliant ORiNOCO AP Manager enables remote control and configuration.
- Can be upgraded to an ROR or COR with firmware if LAN bridging or wireless routing is needed.
