ORiNOCO® 802.11n Access Points - Hardware Installation Guide Introduction 1.3 Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output ORiNOCO® Access Point devices support Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna technology that uses multiple antennas at both the transmitting end and receiving end to improve communication performance. The underlying technology of these access point radio(s) are based on a combination of MIMO and OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing). MIMO-OFDM combination radios solve interference, fading and multipath problems. Having multiple receivers at the receiving end, increases the amount of received power and also reduces multipath problems by combining the received signals for each frequency component separately. Hence, MIMO significantly improves the overall gain. MIMO also uses Spatial multiplexing transmission technique to transmit independent and separately encoded data signals from each of the multiple transmit antennas while reusing or multiplexing in the space dimension. These independent data signals are called Spatial streams. The transmitting end of the device uses multiple radio Tx chains and signal paths to simultaneously transmit different data streams, whereas the receiving end combines the Rx signals resulting in higher throughput. By increasing the number of receiving and transmitting antennas, the throughput of the channel increases linearly resulting in high spectral efficiency.

An access point (also called AP) can provide a communication link to a wired local area network also. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) It is a symmetric-key encryption standard, containing three block ciphers AES-128, AES-192, AES-256. Each of these ciphers has a 128-bit block size, with key sizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits, respectively. Dual-Band Dual-band refers to a device's ability to function on two different frequency bands. HTTP/HTTPS Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is the protocol to transport Web pages. When you access the Internet with your browser, the HTTP protocol is used for data transport (http://www.Tsunamiwireless.com). When you access the unit by using the Web Interface, HTTP is used to transport the information. HTTPS is the Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol. Management Information Base (MIB) A Management Information Base (MIB) is a formal description of a set of network objects that can be managed with the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). A MIB can be loaded by a management application so that it knows the unit specific objects. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) OFDM is a frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) scheme, a method of encoding digital data on multiple carrier frequencies. A large number of closely spaced orthogonal sub-carrier signals are used to carry data. The data is divided into several parallel data streams/channels, one for each sub-carrier, maintaining total data rates similar to conventional single-carrier modulation schemes in the same bandwidth. ORiNOCO® 802.11n Access Points - Hardware Installation Guide 26 Glossary and Abbreviations ScanTool Proxim’s ScanTool is a software utility that runs on Microsoft Windows machine. By using ScanTool, you can • Scan devices (Proxim devices only) available on the network • Obtain device’s IP address • Modify device’s IP Configuration parameters (IP Address, Address Type, Gateway and so on) • Launch the Web interface • Switch between the network adapters, if there are multiple network adapters in the Personal Computer Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) A protocol used for the communication between a network management application and the devices it is managing. The network management application is called the SNMP manager and the devices it manages will have SNMP agents. Not only the unit but also almost every network device contains a SNMP agent. The manageable objects of a device are arranged in a Management Information Base, also called MIB. The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows managers and agents to communicate for accessing these objects. Single-Band Single-band refers to a device's ability to function only on one frequency band. TCP / IP The TCP/IP internet-suite protocol describes a set of general design guidelines and implementations of specific networking protocols to enable computers to communicate over a network. TCP/IP provides end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be formatted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. Telnet Telnet is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area networks to access the command-line interface, on a remote host. Most network equipment and operating systems with a TCP/IP stack support a Telnet service for remote configuration. Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a lightweight protocol for transferring files that is like a simple form of File Transfer Protocol (FTP). A TFTP client is implemented on the unit. By using the upload and download commands, the unit can copy a file to or from a TFTP server. VLAN The Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) feature helps in logical grouping of network host on different physical LAN segments, which can communicate with each other as if they are all on the same physical LAN segment. ORiNOCO® 802.11n Access Points - Hardware Installation Guide 27 Glossary and Abbreviations WPA Wi-Fi Protected Access is a Wi-Fi security standard that provides a high level of wireless network security. It uses data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys and ensures that the keys are not tampered with. User authentication is performed through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network.
