Insight Instant AirBridge WBC502 Hardware Installation Guide
Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor
device that is not WiFi-capable
This application lets you extend the network connectivity of any access point (that is, it
does not need to be an AirBridge) to an outdoor wired device that is not WiFi-capable.
For example, you can connect a security surveillance camera at an entrance or gate to
your network by placing an AirBridge configured as a client bridge between the camera
and the access point. Because of the powerful antenna of the AirBridge, the camera
can connect from a long range.
