Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Wireless-G Business Ethernet
Bridge.
The Linksys WET200 Wireless Bridge seamlessly bridges
separate Ethernet networks together wirelessly and is
ideal for small businesses with offices and resources that
are in different office suites of a building or a closely
adjacent building. The WET200 is a Power over Ethernet
(PoE) end device so it can be installed anywhere an
Ethernet cable can be run if there is not ready access to
a power outlet. PoE enables delivery of both data and
power to the WET200. An AC adapter is also included if
the device installation site has a power outlet nearby.
Advanced security features include Wi-Fi Protected
Access™ (WPA2 Enterprise) with up to 256-bit AES
encryption using EAP (Extensible Authentication
Protocol) giving small businesses the protection they
need to communicate and transfer data securely. The
integrated QoS features provide consistent voice and
video quality on both the wired and wireless networks,
enabling the deployment of business qualilty VoIP and
video applications.
Additional support for VLANs, SNMP, Spanning Tree, and
Port Mirroring make this an ideal solution for network
administrators to incorporate into larger organizations.
