4 & 5 GHz Wireless Ethernet Mesh Network Node (900 MHz optional)

WES Mesh

Product Description
The MiniLink Wireless Mesh is a dual radio mesh networking product that supports the transmission a 10/100 Ethernet signal. Each node operates in the license free 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and operates at data rates up to 54 Mbps. Redundant Mesh networks can be established by connecting multiple nodes to one another in order to enable a variety of IP devices such as IP cameras, video servers, NVR/DVRs, etc. for maximum reliability and flexibility. The system is designed to route Ethernet traffic along the strongest connected path ensuring the best possible throughput and system performance. A secure encryption method is used to prevent unauthorized access to the system. Multiple nodes can be configured as a stand-alone system or as part of a larger wired network.

Product Features
- Dual or single radio nodes available - 802.11g/a user selectable; frequency modulation DSSS/OFDM - Layer 3 routing; supports all TCP/IP protocols - Compact billet aluminium NEMA-67 rated casing - Secure Encrypted Transmission - Web browser interface for advance operation - Non-line of sight capabilities (900 MHz where available)

Simple Mesh Connection Diagram Mobile WiFi Access
Transmits to connected node(s) in any direction
P/N: WES MESH

MiniLink Mesh nodes employ two separate radios. One or both can be set to WiFi in order to be able to connect via a mobile device. This simple diagram shows an example of one node utilizing both of its radios. One radio is communicating to its associated node(s) in the Mesh system while the other is set as a WiFi Access Point (AP). The user can view the secure video stream by accessing the cameras interface but not disrupt the usual wireless feed to the head end. The laptop or mobile device in use must have 802.11 a, b or g capability and be within range (the range of its own card/built-in wireless) to connect to the Mesh AP.

Mobile laptop connects via built-in or card plug-in 802.11a/g technology. Video is viewable in the camera/encoders web browser GUI interface. See corresponding Configuration Note for connection details.
