Quick Installation Guide EAP210 or OWL530 Enterprise Access Point ENGLISH - 1 - Preface Package Contents 4ipnet EAP210 or OWL530 is a high-end 802.11a/b/g/n 2.4GHz/ 5GHz MIMO Selectable Dual Band Access Point (AP) designed to maximize deployment flexibility and feasibility for IT administrators. The difference of EAP210 and OWL530 are the mounting method. EAP210 is a desktop device while OWL530 is designed to be pole-mount. Complying with the latest industrial wireless security standards that are required in the tightly secured enterprise network environments, the AP makes the wireless communication fast, secure and easy. It supports business-grade secure encryption - 802.1X and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) ; by pushing a purposely built button, the 4ipWES (Press-n-Connect) feature makes it easy to bridge wireless links of multiple OWL530s for forming a wider wireless network coverage. EAP210 or OWL530 also features multiple ESSIDs with VLAN tags and multiple Virtual APs; great for enterprise applications, such as separating traffic from different departments using different ESSIDs. The PoE LAN port is able to receive power from Power over Ethernet (PoE) sourcing devices. Its metal case is IP68, which means that the is well suited to WLAN deployment in industrial environments.
