Hardware Description
The Wireless Barricade may be connected to the Internet or to a
remote site using its RJ-45 WAN port or RS-232 serial port. It can
be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using
any of the three Fast Ethernet LAN ports or through the wireless
interface. It also functions as a print server.
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type.
Full-rate ADSL provides up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640
Mbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5
Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems
provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. ISDN
provides up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer channels. And
PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps. However,
you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service
providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits.
Though Internet access speed is determined by the modem type
connected to your Wireless Barricade, data passing between
devices connected to your local area network can run up to 100
Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports.
The Wireless Barricade includes an LED display on the front
panel for system power and port indications that simplifies
installation and network troubleshooting.
