Introducing the WPA-1000
This chapter introduces the main applications of the WPA-1000. It also introduces the ways
you can manage the WPA-1000.
1.1 Overview
Multiple meeting participants connect to the WPA-1000 allowing them to take turns giving
presentations without having to change connections to the projector. Meeting participants can
also use the WPA-1000 to connect to the Internet or access the company network.
You can deploy the WPA-1000 in a number of different ways.
• Wireless Direct
• Wireless Indirect
• Wired
1.1.1 Wireless Direct
Meeting participants can access the WPA-1000 (W) via direct wireless connection, as shown
in the next figure. IEEE 802.11b/g standards are supported and wireless connections can be
secured with WEP security. You can also choose to allow users to access the company network
(N) or just access the Internet via the WPA-1000 and a switch (S).
