1.4.1 Radios
The 9160 G2 is capable of supporting single or dual radio operation. Available radio
modules are the 802.11a/g radio, the 802.11g radio, and the RA1001A Narrow Band
radio. For detailed specifications on these radios please see “Radios” on page 262.
Depending on the installed radio(s), the access point is capable of operating in the
following modes:
• IEEE 802.11b mode.
• IEEE 802.11g mode.
• IEEE 802.11a mode.
• Atheros Turbo 5 GHz.
• Atheros Dynamic Turbo 5 GHz.
• Atheros Turbo 2.4 GHz.
• Atheros Dynamic Turbo 2.4 GHz.
• Extended Range.
• Psion Teklogix Narrow Band Polling Protocol.
Important: Psion Teklogix terminals do not support Atheros Turbo modes
and to prevent unnecessary radio overhead the use of Turbo mode
is not recommended.
The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway supports four different radio configurations:
802.11g, 802.11g + 802.11ag, NB (narrow band), and NB + 802.11ag.
These different variants are identified by the “Model” value, which is shown on the
Maintenance > Upgrade web page (see Figure 1.1 on page 9). The models are
defined as follows:
• 9160 Wireless Gateway = 802.11g.
• 9160 Wireless Gateway (Dual Radio) = 802.11g + 802.11ag.
• 9160 Wireless Gateway NB = NB.
• 9160 Wireless Gateway NB (Dual Radio) = NB + 802.11ag.
