1.3 Applications in Wireless Network
APO1000/APO1010 is a multiple mode system which can be configured either as a wireless gateway or an access point as
desired. It also can be used as WDS link for Ethernet network expansion. This section depicts different applications in AP
Mode, WDS Mode, and CPE Mode and Client Bridge + Universal Repeater Mode.
Configuration in AP Mode (including Access Point + WDS)
An access point can be either a main, relay or remote base station. A main base station is typically connected to a wired
network via the Ethernet port. A relay base station relays data between main base stations and relay stations or remote
base stations with clients. A remote base station is the end point to accept connections from wireless clients and pass
data upwards to a network wirelessly.
Î Example 1 : Access Point without WDS
9 It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wireless Access Point
Î Example 2 : Access Point with WDS
9 It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wireless Access Point and provides WDS link to expand network
