Terabeam's second generation of Bridge-In-a-Box (BRIB) is a complete wireless point-to-point (P-P) solution that bridges two LANs together using the license-free 2.4 GHz band. It consists of two 18 dBi gain flat panel directional antennas with built-in 802.11b wireless LAN devices, and features the award-winning industry standard TurboCell® software, a protocol which significantly enhances the performance of outdoor 802.11b systems through the use of adaptive dynamic polling, bandwidth allocation at the client, and packet aggregation.. The two antennas connect to the LAN's Ethernet switches on each end with an outdoor-rated Ethernet cable (ordered separately). The BRIB Turbo is ideal for connecting two office LANs together, or for linking a WIPOP site to an Internet backbone. The two antennas operate at 11 Mbps over-the-air, and feature the highly secure 128-bit WEP-Plus (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption which, if enabled, provides extra security above standard 802.11b WEP. The link is also transparent to VLAN tags for the most secure link. The BRIB Turbo will accommodate virtually an unlimited number of client MAC addresses on each side of the link. The MAC addresses of the LAN clients on one side appear on the other side of the link wirelessly. It is remotely configured and managed with the Windows-based Terabeam Configurator software. With the wireless client adapters built right into the antennas, professional antenna installation is not required. All that is needed is to ensure that the antennas are optimally aimed and have clear line of sight (LOS) to each other. The antennas can be mounted either vertically or horizontally polarized. Selecting the appropriate polarization for your area will minimize or even completely eliminate interference from other outdoor installations in the 2.4 GHz band. Two versions of the BRIB Turbo are available: the standard series BRIB Turbo with an integral 18 dBi gain flat panel antenna, and the BRIB Turbo-LR with the addition of an integrated bi-directional fixed amplifier to boost range and improve reception. The WLAN device located in the antenna gets its power from the DC Power Injector which puts DC power onto the Ethernet cable. Up to 300 feet of Ethernet cable (ordered separately) between the DC injector and the antenna can be used with no signal loss. Key Features
