For truly Wireless network connectivity, PLANET Mesh Access Point, MAP-3020, is designed with IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards and addressed on providing a high performance Mesh network. It provides local wireless connectivity at any location over a self-adaptation mesh backhaul. All mesh nodes can operate at 2.4GHz for long range and better penetration, or at 5GHz to minimize the frequency interference. The two detachable N-Type antennas design allows users to use proper antennas for various deploying requirements.
Multiple interfaces (LAN, WLAN, Backhaul) integrated in MAP-3020 are all bridged with one single IP. The layer 2 infrastructure is suitable for smaller scale mesh network. Compared with the layer 3 operation, the configurations and installations of a layer 2 infrastructure will be simpler and easier. Without the extra resource consuming on routing, the overall performance of layer 2 operation is better than layer 3 operation.
To facilitate the administration task throughout the mesh network, PLANET provides a centralized managing software: MAP Management System. This software is built based on SNMP protocol and can be installed in the computer. After launching, this software can locate and monitor all MAP-3020 in the same network. Its graphical interface allowing the administrator to know the whole network status in seconds, including all the mesh nodes and connected wireless clients.
