Product Name: Wireless Proprietary RF Solutions XPress Ethernet Bridge

Product Description

Indoor/urban range up to 2,000 feet (with high gain antenna) 
Outdoor line-of-sight range up to 15 miles (with high gain antenna) 
Does not interfere with Wi-Fi networks 
128-bit encryption payload protection provides secure data delivery 


The XPress Ethernet Bridge replaces costly wiring with a solution that can enable remote Wi-Fi APs, Pan/Tilt/Zoom security cameras, VoIP phones, Internet kiosks and more. With a range of up to 15 miles (line-of-sight with a high gain antenna) and the ability to transmit through as many as 10 standard walls, the XEB uses the added range and capabilities of the 900 MHz band to communicate where Wi-Fi and other wireless data products fall short. The easy-to-use, long-range XEB features a 1.5 Mbps RF data rate. 
The XPress Ethernet Bridge is the best solution when: 
Wi-Fi range is insufficient 
A broadband Ethernet drop will cost too much or is impractical to install 
Guaranteed DSL-rate throughput is required (Kiosks/Wi-Fi APs/PTZ cameras) 
Guaranteed latency for voice or video is required (VoIP/PTZ cameras) 
Wi-Fi is too slow due to saturation or 2.4 GHz interference (Airport/Mall/PTZ cameras) 
An indoor long-range broadband backhaul is required 
The XPress Ethernet Bridge comes in a matched pair set that requires no configuration to operate. Simply plug-in each end and you are instantly communicating.
