Insight Instant AirBridge WBC502 Hardware Installation Guide Applications overview The AirBridge can function as a master, satellite, access point, or client bridge in various applications: • Extend your network to a detached site. Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to another AirBridge that functions as a satellite at a detached site. The network at the detached site is an extension of the network at the main site. For more information, see Extend your network to a detached site on page 21. • Provide a WiFi Internet connection to a detached, independent network. Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to another AirBridge that functions as a satellite at a detached site. By connecting a router to the satellite, the network at the detached site is independent from the network at the main site. For more information, see Provide a WiFi Internet connection to a detached, independent network on page 23. • Centrally manage video surveillance networks located at different sites. Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to two, three, or four AirBridges that function as satellites at detached sites. Connect video surveillance equipment to the satellite at each detached site. For more information, see Centrally manage video surveillance networks located at different sites on page 25. • Provide long-range WiFi service to outdoor clients. Set up an AirBridge that functions as an access point to serve multiple outdoor WiFi clients at a long range. For more information, see Provide long-range WiFi service to outdoor clients on page 27. • Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor device that is not WiFi-capable. Set up an AirBridge that functions as a client bridge to connect to any WiFi access point. Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor device such as a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera by connecting it directly to the client bridge. For more information, see Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor device that is not WiFi-capable on page 29. Applications 20 Hardware Installation Guide

Applications overview
The AirBridge can function as a master, satellite, access point, or client bridge in various
applications:
•
Extend your network to a detached site
.
Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to another
AirBridge that functions as a satellite at a detached site. The network at the detached
site is an extension of the network at the main site. For more information, see Extend
your
network
to
a
detached
site
on page 21.
•
Provide a WiFi Internet connection to a detached, independent network
.
Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to another
AirBridge that functions as a satellite at a detached site. By connecting a router to
the satellite, the network at the detached site is independent from the network at
the main site. For more information, see Provide
a
WiFi
Internet
connection
to
a
detached,
independent
network
on page 23.
•
Centrally manage video surveillance networks located at different sites
.
Set up one AirBridge that functions as a master at the main site to connect to two,
three, or four AirBridges that function as satellites at detached sites. Connect video
surveillance equipment to the satellite at each detached site. For more information,
see Centrally
manage
video
surveillance
networks
located
at
different
sites
on page
25.
•
Provide long-range WiFi service to outdoor clients
. Set up an AirBridge that
functions as an access point to serve multiple outdoor WiFi clients at a long range.
For more information, see Provide
long-range
WiFi
service
to
outdoor
clients
on
page 27.
•
Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor device that is not WiFi-capable
. Set
up an AirBridge that functions as a client bridge to connect to any WiFi access point.
Provide a WiFi connection to an outdoor device such as a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera
by connecting it directly to the client bridge. For more information, see Provide
a
WiFi
