Operating Models

Access Point
In Access Point Mode, AP behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11ax/ac/a/b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to associate with the AP. The AP supports up to eight SSIDs per band at the same time for secure access.

Client Bridge
The Access Points can be used as a centralized Access Point with which other En-Genius Wireless Client Bridges can associate; leveraging the long-range capability of their internal high-gain directional antennas, resulting in a very cost-effective solution to expand a company network over a multiple building campus.

WDS AP
This operating mode allows wireless connections to the Access Point using WDS technology. In this mode, configure the MAC addresses in both Access Points to enlarge the wireless area by enabling WDS Link settings.

WDS Bridge
In WDS Bridge Mode, the Access Points can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security settings of each device. Use this mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the Access Point to onnect two wired LANs, as shown in the following diagram.

Mesh Mode
Regular scanning signal level of an environment to provide parameters for performing Auto Transmit power and auto channel.

Exquisite RF Management

Auto Transmit Power
Automatically adjust power level when EnGenius Access Points operate wireless communication service under an environment.

Auto Channel
Automatically assign a clearly channel to perform RF transmission under a pervasive environment.

Bandwidth Selection
Choose bandwidth of channels, the widely bandwidth will carry more data to enhance the transmission throughput.

Transmit Power Configuration
Configure the Transmit power to the proper value for optimizing your network.

Fast Roaming (802.11k)
Collect the parameters of neighborhood Access Points to find the optimal AP.

Fast Roaming (802.11v)
Cognize the signal strength of client devices under each to steer these client devices to one of Access Points if signal level is less than the default value of AP systems.

Band Steering
Steer client devices to a proper frequency band for getting more bandwidth and speed under an Access Point. The change will improve overall performance.

Discard Legacy clients
Discard legacy 11 a/b/g client to prevent the slowing down performance of an Access Point. The action can let Access Point carry more client devices under a pervasive environment.

Disable 11ax transmission on 2.4GHz
Disable 11ax 2.4GHz wireless mode; the setting will be allowed client devices to associate with an Access Point throughout 11b/g/n mode.

Bit Rate Control (Min. Bit Rate)
An administrator can improve the performance of client devices on the 2.4 GHz and 5Ghz band via disabling lower bitrates on both radios. Setting the higher bit rate can be reduce the loading of Access Points and overall network, as well as improve performance on seamless roaming.

Optimize Performance

Quality of Service
Compliance with IEEE 802.11e standard Prioritizes voice over data for both tagged and untagged traffic Transmit video, voice and data at the same SSID

Power Save Mode (UAPSD)
Some client devices are enabled UAPSD as defaulted for saving their power. Under UAPSD, AP will keep the connection with client devices and without further transmission. When client devices send the request to AP, AP will start to transmit data. The U-APSD will be benefited for VOIP device to save power.

Pre-Authentication
Compliance with 802.11i &11x

PMK Caching
Compliance with 802.11i
If wireless client devices have authenticated to an access point, it does not perform a full authentication exchange when client devices roaming between access points.

Fast Roaming (802.11r)
Use a Fast Transition key to handover between Access Points. The behavior will assist client devices move from an AP to one of APs seamless under the same wireless network.

Multicast to Unicast Conversion
Using the IGMP protocol, an access Point delivers high definition content to a large number of clients simultaneously.
