Option 2—With Store-and-Forward Station
A LAN can be extended through the use of an alternate arrangement (see
Figure 17). This second arrangement overcomes the limitations of ter-
rain by using a single-unit repeater to re-transmit the signals of all sta-
tions in the network. The repeater is a standard MDS iNet 900 radio
configured as an Access Point with data store-and-foreword.
