USRobotics, a leader in network access, announced the extension of its Wireless MAXg product family. Products new to the company’s award winning line up include the Wireless MAXg Ethernet Bridge and the Wireless MAXg Range Extender, which will be available in the Middle East markets as well.
“Our customers need to be able to connect all of their devices in order to make full use of their computer networks and equipment,” says Sumit Kumar, Region Manager, Middle East and North Africa for USRobotics. “The Ethernet bridge allows wired connections into an existing wireless network ensuring device connectivity, while the range extender can double the distance from which laptops and other clients can connect to the network. With the availability of these two extensions in the Middle East markets, customers in the region can further satisfy their network connectivity requirements.”
The Wireless MAXg Ethernet Bridge (USR805432) can be used to wirelessly connect two Local Area Networks to share resources. It also turns any device with an Ethernet port into a wireless device. It eliminates the need to run additional cabling and provides increased flexibility for networked equipment.
The Wireless MAXg Range Extender (USR805441) can be deployed at the far reaches of an existing wireless network to extend range, without the need to run lengths of cable. It can provide up to double the network’s coverage area by boosting the MAXg access point’s wireless signal.
The Wireless MAXg product family is the first to combine the industry’s latest 802.11g performance and range enhancements. Designed to provide performance comparable to pre-N and MIMO products for the price of standard 802.11g products, MAXg products also offer higher levels of security and greater flexibility than non-standards-compliant pre-N or MIMO products.
With WPA and WPA2 (802.11i)* security included, customers can be certain that their wireless network is secure. The upgradeable antenna and new WDS compatible bridge and range extender products allow the MAXg product family to be configured to deliver even longer range and to cope better with difficult environments than pre-N or MIMO products.
