WBS-512AC Planet Access Point

Flexible and Reliable Outdoor Wireless Solution with Superior Performance

PLANET WBS-512AC 802.11ac WAVE 2 900Mbps Outdoor Wireless CPE offers a better range and excellent throughput than those of the traditional wireless device. With the standard IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) design, the WBS-512AC can be easily installed in the areas where power outlets are not available. The WBS-512AC is definitely suitable for wireless IP surveillance, and bridge link of building to building and backbone of public service. Additionally, the self-healing capability keeps connection alive all the time. With the IP55-rated outdoor enclosure, the WBS-512AC can perform normally under rigorous weather conditions, meaning it can be installed in any harsh, outdoor environments. 

Applications

Long-distance Connection 

PLANET WBS-512AC is specially designed for long-distance outdoor surveillance and wireless backhaul solutions that are capable of providing farther connection through the built-in 14dBi dual-polarity antenna. It supports MU-MIMO WAVE 2.0 that can offer the more powerful transmission speed for data rate. With multiple operation modes and adjustable Tx power, it is easy to install and adjust the suitable setting in appropriate locations. In the aspect of management, the traffic shaping and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN that the WBS-512AC features regulate network data transfer by delaying the flow of less important or less desired packets. Furthermore, the self-healing capability keeps connection alive all the time, thus reducing the maintenance effort and deployment cost.
