TP-Link TL-WA901N is a wireless access point supporting the N standard, with transmission speeds up to 450 Mbps. The device supports many modes of work, such as: access point, universal amplifier, wireless bridge. Power over Ethernet gives a lot of convenient possibilities, e.g. locating the device up to 30 meters away. In addition, the product has been equipped with a WPS button allowing quick and secure connection using WPA encryption.
The device using IEEE 802.11n standard supports advanced MIMO (Multi Input Multi Output) technology enabling simultaneous use of three antennas for transmitting and receiving data. This reduces the signal loss resulting from long-distance data transmission or physical obstacles that the transmitted signal encounters. As a result, the performance of the wireless network is significantly enhanced, even in buildings of concrete or steel construction. Additionally, unlike the 11g standard, it is possible to establish a long-distance connection to the wireless network.
Thanks to advanced technology we have possibility of using the TL-WA901N in several modes: AP, multi-SSID, client, repeater (WDS/universal), bridge. With this solution, we can establish a wireless network in places where it is impossible to lay cables.
For simultaneous data transmission and powering the device we can use passive PoE injector, so we have convenient solution for data and power transmission on one cable. It allows to locate the access point up to 30 meters from the Ethernet network. We can place the device in the place with the best signal quality, e.g. on the wall or ceiling. Moreover, WPS button allows for instant encrypted wireless connection, and clear interface included on the CD enables us to configure it quickly and easily.
