wireless workstations into wired Ethernet LANs. It also contains a wireless
coordinating function which enables workstations equipped with a Station
Adapter (Station Adapter, Bridge) to communicate with one another inside
the cell coverage area (even if they are not in direct line of sight) via the
Access Point. Any two wireless stations in two different cells can
communicate through their Access Points.

operating in a standalone mode.
When this diagram is in use, the
transceiver will be used in
conjunction with amp model
AMP-2440-250/500 and the
antennas listed in this manual.
Mobile workstations, such as laptops and hand-held devices, can roam
between Access Points that belong to the same Extended Service Set (ESS).
In an Extended Service Set, all Access Points have the same ESSID. When
the access points are set up so that their coverage areas overlap, users can
roam seamlessly from cell to cell. This means that there is no interruption of
network connection when moving from one coverage area to the other
through the overlap and is completely transparent to the user and the
applications. The Station Adapters decide when a mobile user becomes
disassociated from one access point and associated with another. This
process is fully transparent, requires no user intervention and involves no
loss of data packets.
Position multiple access points in locations where heavy network traffic is
expected to create a multicell and increase the aggregate throughput
capacity in areas where it is needed most. The system implements a Load
