Examples of Networks Built Using NEW11E
A wireless LAN network can be built by combining NE-W11E with Wireless LAN
Access Point NE-W01E. Wireless LANs operate in two communications modes:
infrastructure mode and ad-hoc mode. The applicable mode varies according to
what kind of network you are going to configure by the wireless LAN. For this reason,
check which communications mode will be used referring to the network configuration examples below.
■ Example of a network built in the infrastructure mode
In relatively large-scale networks where the user wants to add on a wireless LAN
network to an existing wired LAN network or access the Internet from a wireless
LAN network, access points are used to configure a network in the infrastructure
mode.

Installing the NE-W11E
■ Installation location
• Read "Safety Precautions" ( page 2) in this manual, and check the
precautions when using the NE-W11E.
• Read "Operating Environment" ( page 7) in this manual, and check the
precautions regarding the installation location. The NE-W11E uses radio
waves. So, sometimes normal communications is no longer possible in some
operating environments.
• Make sure that the NE-W11E is not installed too far away from other wireless
LAN devices, and that there are no obstacles (metal, concrete walls, etc.) in
between these wireless LAN devices. Transmission speed and transfer
distance fluctuate considerably depending on the ambient environment.
• Install the NE-W11E in locations where there is a clear path between the NEW11E and other wireless LAN devices.
● In the infrastructure mode
When the network is configured in the infrastructure mode, we recommend
installing the wireless LAN stations within a radius of 20 m of the Wireless LAN
Access Point NE-W01E at their center as shown in the figure below.
(The standard distance for indoor communications is roughly 40 m.)

* We recommend limiting the number of devices connected to the access point
to eight devices.
15
● In the ad-hoc mode
When the network is configured in the ad-hoc mode, we recommend installing
the wireless LAN stations so that they are within xxm of each other as shown in
the figure below. (The standard distance for indoor communications is roughly
40 m.)
NE-W11E
NE-W11E
NE-W11E
* We recommend limiting the number of devices connected in this configuration to three devices.
Note: When wireless LAN devices are installed too far away from each other or
there are obstacles that hinder wireless communications, communications
may not be possible between those wireless LAN devices. This is called the
"hidden terminal problem." In the ad-hoc mode, this may cause a drop in
throughput.
● Distance between surrounding areas
Be sure to allow at least 30 mm of space between the NE-W11E and other devices
or surrounding walls when installing the NE-W11E.
