Extended Infrastructure Using Repeaters
An access point can be configured as a stand-alone repeater to extend the range of your infrastructure,
or to overcome an RF blocking obstacle (Figure 1-4). The repeater forwards traffic between the Cisco
Aironet Wireless LAN Client Adapter equipped workstations and devices and the wired LAN by sending
packets to either another repeater or to another access point attached to the wired LAN. The data is sent
through whichever route provides the greatest performance for the client. Multiple repeater hops can be
supported in the path to the wired LAN.
