your wireless and Ethernet devices. It is an advanced, standards-based solution for
wireless networking in small and medium-sized businesses. The 9160 G2 Wireless
Gateway enables zero-administration wireless local area network (WLAN) deploy-
ment while providing state-of-the-art wireless networking features.

seamlessly between the 9160 G2s in the network. The 9160 G2 can also operate as a
base station, a remote radio module (RRM), and become part of a mapRF system.
