Operation Modes

The AWK-5222 raises the bar by having not one but two RF modules to enable two independent wireless connections. The AWK-5222 provides a variety of wireless operation modes and can essentially create any type of topology to fit your customer's applications.

 

   Dual-RF Redundancy Mode
You can set up two independent wireless connections between the redundant AP and redundant client devices. Usually, these 2 RFs are set to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz to prevent interference. If one of the two wireless connections fails, the other connection will continue providing service between the redundant AP and redundant client devices.
In addition to being able to serve one or more redundant clients, the redundant AP can also serve one or more traditional single RF Client at the same time.

 

   Wireless Bridge Mode
The AWK-5222 offers another dual RF feature called wireless bridge mode, in which WLAN 1 is configured as the"master AP"and WLAN 2 as the"slave client." This mode will not reduce the bandwidth but will extend the wireless range. More importantly, it is designed to optimize the poor performance associated with the WDS (Wireless Distribution System) mode. The WDS mode's normal throughput is 25 Mbps/(n-1), in which n is the number of WDS nodes. For example, if there are 4 mesh nodes, the throughput is around 8 Mbps.
   AP-Client Connection Mode
Most WLAN applications use infrastructure mode. In AP-client mode, a wireless AP is required to set up a basic infrastructure service set (BSS) for wireless connectivity. The AP can be used by itself to set up a WLAN, or can be used to connect the WLAN to a wired network. The AWK-5222 supports an AP-client connection, which can be used to provide Internet access in areas where cabling would be too expensive or impractical to install.
