FortiWiFi-60
When using the FortiWiFi-60 in Client mode, the device is set to receive transmissions
from another access point. This enables you to connect remote users to an existing
network using wireless protocols from a location that does not have a wired
infrastructure.
For example, in a warehouse where shipping and receiving are on opposite sides of
the building. Running cables is not an option due to the warehouse environment. The
FortiWiFi-60 unit can support wired users using its 4 ethernet ports and can connect to
another Access Point wirelessly as a Client. This connects the wired users to the
network using the 802.11 wireless standard as a backbone.
