3 1. INTRODUCTION The NH10WAP11b - NetHome™ IEEE-802.11b Wireless Access Point adapter enables the NetHome™ Ethernet based home backbone system to communicate with multiple wireless devices using standard IEEE-802.11b protocol. This guide describes how to install a NetHome Wireless Access Point adapter, establish a wireless network, and configure the access point to securely communicate with multiple wireless devices. For general information about implementing a NetHome system and setting up a network of NetHome Smart Outlets, refer to the SercoNet Smart Outlet™ Network Technical User Guide. 1.1. The NetHome Solution The SercoNet NetHome network solution distributes residential and SOHO broadband communication to devices such as PCs, printers, and scanners. The system uses existing phone wires to deliver free-flowing, uninterrupted data, voice, and video streams at broadband speeds. Simply replacing the home phone jacks with SercoNet Smart Outlets™ automatically creates a home 10Mbps Ethernet LAN backbone over the home phone wires. This new backbone guarantees the NetHome network’s high bandwidth and allows the customer to run multimedia applications alongside data services. In addition, customers need not worry about losing telephone services, since the NetHome system maintains intact telephone services during power outages. Figure 1.1. NetHome Smart Outlet Network Diagram 1.1.1. Flexible Interfacing The NetHome network features various physical interfaces to connect multiple home device types without extra protocol or interface converters. The NetHome Smart Outlet has the dominant standard 10BaseT interface, enabling customers to directly connect multiple home devices to the NetHome network’s backbone. Beyond 10BaseT, the NetHome network supports other standard interfaces like IEEE-802.11b, providing maximum device connectivity and flexibility via interchangeable parts. 1.1.2. Broadband Service Providers’ Extended Reach The NetHome network suits a wide spectrum of customers: • Home users who want to share broadband service. • Installers seeking easy broadband provision. • Broadband service providers wishing to sell new value-added services over the NetHome network. NetHome’s house-wall service point enables broadband providers to redefine the border between the customer and service provider domains. Thus, NetHome integrates the home broadband backbone with the provider’s service equipment. This fusing of the home backbone with the broadband service provider’s remote-controlled home-networked applications increases customer loyalty and reduces customer churn. Also, by using NetHome, broadband service providers can provide maintenance and support for their customers’ home networking services, a one-stop-shop transparency that paying customers expect and value.
4 1.2. NetHome Wireless Access Point The NetHome Wireless Access Point adapter employs the IEEE-802.11b standard for wireless communication. The NetHome Wireless Access Point adapter enables portable devices to be connected to the same Broadband backbone with maximum mobility and accessibility. A NetHome Wireless Access Point can be located at any location in the house that has a phone outlet. This means that you can position the NetHome Wireless Access Point in the location that gives you the optimal coverage. You do not have to position the access point in the same location as your broadband connection. Multiple NetHome Wireless Access Points can be connected where one Access Point cannot provide the required coverage. The robust performance of the wired system enables communication between multiple Access Points without compromising the performance. 1.3. Benefits Benefits of the Wireless Access Point adapter include: • Integrated wired and wireless solutions for home coverage. • Choice of ideal Access Point location for enhanced performance. • Communication between multiple Access Points. • Mobility of portable devices maintained alongside wired connections to desktop devices. • Enhanced security of the wired segments of the system. 1.4.
