The second diagram shows an existing LAN being
extended using WI-MOD- 945-E ’s. In this example, the
Access Point is configured at the LAN end - although the
wireless link will still work if the Client is at the LAN end.

An Access Point could be used as a “Repeater” unit to
connect two WI-MOD-945-E Clients, which do not have

Multiple Access Points can be set-up
in a “mesh” network to provide
multiple repeaters.
