RNEA-81: 802.11n a/b/g 2x2 wifi to Ethernet converter (AP/Ethernet Client/Repeater), AP83/AR9130+AR9104

RNEA-81 is a carrier-class high-speed 802.11n a/b/g 2x2 wifi to Ethernet Converter that can operate as Access Point, Ethernet Client, and Repeater modes designed specifically for IPTV over Wi-Fi applications. Access Point and Ethernet Client can be paired in the factory to meet the Do-It-Yourself goal of completely plug-and-play with virtually no configuration to reduce end user support burden. GUI and firmware custom service enable Operators to quickly and easily bring competitive price/performance wifi solutions to market and ensure best end user experience possible.
Equipped with latest 802.11n 2x2 technology that delivers up to 300Mbps wireless link rate, RNEA-81 sufficiently delivers the ultimate wireless triple play experience of video streaming, voice, and data transmission for multimedia homes, offices, and public hotspots looking to deploy co-existing 2.4 and 5GHz Wi-Fi networks.

 

Key Features

  • An 802.11n a/b/g 2x2 wifi to Ethernet converter can operate in 3 working models of access point, Ethernet client, and repeater.
  • Hardware switching selector of AP, Ethernet client, and repeater mode to easily select required mode without Web GUI access.
  • WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) hardware press button automatically configure a wifi network with a SSID as well as data encryption and authentication without troublesome Web configuration.
  • Supports Multicast and Unicast conversion for video streaming applications.
  • Configurations can be saved and automatically applied among access point/Ethernet client/repeater function mode switching.
  • Enables bandwidth up to 300Mbps link rate, six times the throughput of 802.11a and 802.11g.
  • Supports IEEE 802.11a/802.11b/802.11g backward compatibility allowing inter-operability among multiple wifi networks.
  • Supports WEP 64/128/152 encryption and WPA/WPA-PSK/WPA2/WPA2-PSK/802.11x security.
  • One 10/100Mbps Ethernet port supports auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X and 802.3x flow control.
  • RoHS 2002/95/EC compliance meets environment-friendly requirement.
  • Optional TR-069 direct management through ACS (Motive, support Soft and Netopia) support by project request.
  • Optional TR-111 ACS passing management through a TR-111 compliant gateway support by project request.

Operational Modes:

1. Access Point (AP) mode: connects any 2.4GHz or 5GHz wifi device to allow a group of wifi stations to communicate with each other through it.

2. Ethernet Client mode: connects to a computer/media device through an Ethernet cable and acts as a 2.4 or 5GHz 802.11n wifi adapter.

3. Repeater mode: extends the range of a 2.4 or 5GHz wireless network without the need to link a wired backbone.

Typical Applications:

IPTV over Wi-Fi: RNEA-81 can be configured to operated in AP or Ethernet Client or Repeater; then paired to work and co-exist with Wi-Fi network.
