The Cisco Aironet 342 Workgroup Bridge (Part Number: AIR-WGB342R) is a wireless bridge designed to enable network connectivity where physical cabling may not be feasible. It operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency range and supports Wi-Fi standards to ensure reliable communication between devices. This unit securely connects Ethernet-enabled devices to an existing wireless network, bridging the gap between wired and wireless infrastructures.
Key features of the Cisco Aironet 342 Workgroup Bridge include its ability to support up to eight Ethernet devices, providing a versatile solution for connecting various wired devices to a central wireless network. The solution is ideal for environments where traditional Ethernet cabling is either difficult or impossible to implement.
The unit supports 802.11b wireless standard and offers data rates of up to 11 Mbps, ensuring adequate speed and efficiency for small-to-medium network loads. This can be beneficial in environments like branch offices, small businesses, or temporary setups requiring wireless connectivity for multiple devices.
Security features are integrated into the Cisco Aironet 342 Workgroup Bridge, offering support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption to help safeguard network communications from unauthorized access. This is an important consideration in business environments where sensitive data may be transmitted over the network.
Another key benefit is its capability for device mobility, allowing you to reposition Ethernet devices without physically rewiring. This makes it a flexible solution for dynamic workspaces or sites undergoing frequent changes, such as construction or event areas.
