MINI INDUSTRIAL OUTDOOR 802.11A/N WIRELESS ETHERNET
Thank you for purchasing NetWave® from ComNet. This installation guide applies to
the following models:
NW1/M: Industrial Multipoint, FCC Version, User Configurable
NW2/M: Industrial Multipoint, ETSI Version, User Configurable
NWK1/M: Industrial Multipoint Kit, FCC Version (Includes NWK1/M_AP and
NWK1/M_CL)
NWK2/M: Industrial Multipoint Kit, ETSI Version (Includes NWK2/M_AP and
NWK2/M_CL)
The NetWave industrially hardened wireless Ethernet transmission link from ComNet
can be configured through the embedded User Interface as a Client or as an Access
Point. This point-to-multipoint model allows multiple Ethernet endpoints to be
connected to a central Access Point. Up to 15 endpoints can be linked to a central
access point. The NW1/M and NW2/M support up to 95Mbps throughput using
MIMO technology. An easy to read LED array displays unit operational status along
with received signal strength ensuring optimal installation and operation. The units
are passive powered by PoE (Power over Ethernet) through a supplied PoE injection
module. The NW1/M is FCC certified and the NW2/M is ETSI, DFS and TPC certified.
