The 3Com AP Bridge and 11bg Access Point supports fixed point-to-point or
point-to-multipoint wireless links. A single link between two points can be used
to connect a remote site to larger core network. Multiple bridge links can provide
a way to connect widespread Ethernet LANs.
For each link in a wireless bridge network to be reliable and provide optimum
performance, some careful site planning is required. This chapter provides
guidance and information for planning your wireless bridge links.
NOTE: The planning and installation of the wireless bridge requires professional
personnel that are trained in the installation of radio transmitting equipment.
The user is responsible for compliance with local regulations concerning items
such as antenna power, use of lightning arrestors, grounding, and radio mast or
tower construction. Therefore, it is recommended to consult a professional
contractor knowledgeable in local radio regulations prior to equipment
installation.
