Setup and function

The flush-mounted WLAN access point offers an excellent alternative for meeting the demands made on modern infrastructures according to DIN 18015-2 and RAL-RG 678, without having to go without the convenient use of modern, mobile technology such as tablet PCs or laptops and without limiting the transmission data rates.

Additionally, the flush-mounted WLAN access point functions like a normal data socket with an RJ45 output for a conventional data terminal device (data rate up to 100 Mbit/s). The power is supplied direct via 230 V at the rear of the device.

The flush-mounted WLAN access point can be connected to the internal data network via a classic network cable.

The transmission range of the WLAN can be adapted and limited to the conditions of the room. This creates highperformance radio cells in the room, which ensure a maximum radio band width within the room while operating at minimal power consumption and radiation.

Due to the minimum requirement for energy and resultant minimum radio emission, demarcation problems under individual access points and overcoupling of WLAN areas and reduction of data rates are largely avoided.

Network - WLAN settings

For WLAN settings a distinction is made between device configuration and interface configuration.

Network – WLAN settings – Device configuration - General settings

Fig. 20:

The following settings are possible aside from the status display:

- You can deactivate the WLAN if it not required, to prevent radiation and to save energy. The other two interfaces remain available. You can also switchover via UDP (see chapter "Controlling the flush-mounted

WLAN access point via UDP" on page 38).

• Channel

- The frequency range of adjacent channels superimpose on each other. That is why the channel should be selected in such a way that the frequencies of other radio devices in the vicinity do not overlap (e.g. radio microwave devices in the area of channel 9 and 10). In Germany, 13 channels are permitted, in the USA, for example, only 11. In order not to restrict the selection of devices, we recommend the use of only channels 1 to 11.

– By changing the transmitting power the transmission range of the flush-mounted WLAN access point can be adapted. It should be kept as small as possible in the application range.

8.7.3 Network – WLAN settings – Interface configuration - General settings

The settings that are possible in the interface configuration are network-specific:

• ESSID

- Network name with which the flush-mounted WLAN access point is to be connected

• Mode

– Four modes are available for selection:

The operating mode access point, and access point (WDS/Repeater) (see chapter "Types of functions" on page 8)

- Prevents unauthorized devices from seeing your network

The entries are taken over with "Save & apply".

8.7.4 Network – WLAN settings – Device configuration - General settings

Relayd function / Repeater mode

The relayd function is the basis for the repeater function. Here an available, possibly weak WLAN signal is picked up, boosted and re-transmitted as access point on the mounting position of the flush-mounted WLAN access point. This, for example, allows WLAN connections on an available router to be 'extended' and/or made more operationally reliable. Please note that the maximum data rates in the types of functions with repeater function are fundamentally halved with each additional repeat. This is due to the general physical principles of the WLAN transmission and not to any special characteristic of the flush-mounted WLAN access point.

Internet

Router



1 x repeated (50 %)

2 x repeated (25 %) possible, not recommendable

Fig. 21:

The types of functions as repeater and access point require appropriate configuration in the flush-mounted WLAN access point.

Since this involves two different type of WLAN functions, two network interfaces need to be set up (see chapter

"WLAN network" on page 29).

The first network interface is configured as "Client (Relayd)". Here the IP address of the Relayd client must lie within the identical address range of the router (or the amplifying device).

The second network interface is parameterized as access point.

Via this network interface during WLAN operation the connection of mobile data transmission units is made, or also additional repeaters that were set up identically in previous processes.

8.7.6 Interface configuration – WLAN encryption

The WLAN encryption protects the network against attacks from unauthorized users.

• Encryption

The mode set at the point of delivery is the safest; however, it is not supported by some older devices (avoid

WEP!)

• Cipher

Encryption procedure at state of delivery is "auto"

• Key

With the assigning of the key you only allow authorized users access to your network.

Ensure that you change the key!

When selecting the key, observe the same criteria as for selecting the password; however, for the encryption procedure such as WPA and WPA2 for WLAN, the password for security reasons should be at least 20 characters long.

The settings made can now be confirmed and taken over with "Save & apply".
