WAP54GPE Cisco Wireless-G Exterior Access Point with Power Over Ethernet High-Speed Wireless Access for Exterior Environments

The Linksys Wireless-G Exterior Access Point lets you connect Wireless-G (802.11g) or Wireless-B (802.11b) devices to your wired network so you can add PCs to the network with no cabling hassle. This weather-resistant Access Point creates a “wireless bubble” in exterior spaces, like patios, pool areas, and outdoor cafés. Power over Ethernet support makes it easy to install, and you can create multiple SSIDs that connect to individual VLANs to keep your traffic separated.

It’s also perfect for use as a bridge, a kind of “cable-less cable” to connect remote areas together. Maybe your warehouse is in a separate building from your offices. Or maybe you need to connect the separate buildings of a college campus. With one Wireless-G Exterior Access Point on each building, you’re connected up to 54Mbps – with no cable to run. The weather-resistant case protects the access point, and contains an internal antenna.

To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Exterior Access Point supports both Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and the industrial-strength wireless security of Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA), encoding all your wireless transmissions with powerful encryption. The MAC Address filter lets you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network, and advanced logging keeps you appraised. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.

The Linksys Wireless-G Exterior Access Point is the best way to add wireless access to the outdoor areas of your home or business.
