AP-10 PRO.11 Access Point
Used to extend your wired enterprise network, or alone as a totally wireless network. The AP-10 PRO.11 connects directly to your 10Base-T Ethernet backbone via an RJ-45 connector, transmitting network information from your wired LAN and server resources to BreezeNET wireless clients who can be stationary or mobile.
The AP-10 Access Point is the hub of the wireless system.
network, looking like another network device to the network manager. No special expertise required for set-up.
The AP-10 PRO.11 is designed as a true low-prole network infrastructure product, much like a wired hub or switch. In contrast, competitive products take an ISA or PCMCIA adapter and insert it into a bridge chassis. This creates a wireless backbone kludge that can impact network performance and reliability. The AP-10s top-down design results in an access point thats easy to install, congure and manage, and delivers maximum throughput. With a data rate of up to 3 Mbps and a transmission range up to 3,000 ft. in open space, or 600 ft. in an office, it can provide an aggregate backbone data rate up to 15 Mbps using a multicell conguration.

SA-PCR PRO.11 PC Card

Its nothing less than the rst truly innovative wireless PC Card. At a data rate up to 3 megabits per second and an indoor range up to 600 ft., its also the best performing IEEE 802.11-compliant card available anywhere. With its retractable, extremely exible, titanium wire antennas, the SA-PCR PRO.11 is the low prole PC card mobile client device users are waiting for. The SA-PCR supports all popular operating systems, including Microsoft Windows95, Windows NT, Windows 3.11, Windows CE, DOS, and Novell NetWare.
A proprietary algorithm, WIX manages the AP-10 PRO.11 in multicell environments. WIX lets you increase aggregate backbone by overlapping up to 15 access point coverage areas or cells. This capability is especially valuable in high traffic in-building applications where multiple client devices are transmitting and receiving in a common area. WIX manages the multi-cell environment by balancing the load between access points, off-loading traffic to each of these as necessary. Additionally, overlapping coverage using multiple access points increases aggregate throughput.
SA-10 PRO.11 Single-Port Station Adapter
Single-port, universal client adapter with built-in diversity antenna system, connects to any RJ-45 10BASE-T Ethernet port, providing a true plugand-play wireless solution for PCs, Macs, Unix workstations, hand-held data input units, printers and most other computing and peripheral devices without the need to install additional drivers or congure hardware interrupts.
BreezeNET PRO.11 products are designed for enterprise networking including dynamic environments with a large number of clients.

applications include vehicular networks such as eets and automated cranes, robots control systems with built in PCMCIA slots, and outdoor networks which use laptops and may require longer tranmission ranges.
The BreezeNET PRO.11 D Model Bridge with detachable diversity antenna system provides wireless links between networks or devices up to eight miles apart. Coupled with a complete family of omni- and uni-directional high-gain antennas, network managers can set up connections between remote network sites outdoors and indoors in large open areas, including headquarters, remote buildings, convention halls, hangars, and warehouses. With a data rate up to 3 megabits per second, the Model D prodvides a reliable frequency hopping spread spectrum connection that does not sacrice performance. It is also extremely cost-effective, especially compared with cost of lease lines and underground cabling.
