PERATING
The 3Com Outdoor 11a Building to Building Bridge and 11bg Access Point system
provides access point or bridging services through either the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz
radio interfaces.
The unit supports both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint bridge modes.
Wireless bridge units can be used as regular 802.11a/b/g access points connected
to a local wired LAN, providing connectivity and roaming services for wireless
clients in an outdoor area. Units can also be used purely as bridges connecting
remote LANs. Alternatively, you can employ both access point and bridging
functions together, offering a flexible and convenient wireless solution for many
applications.
