Wandy® B333f - High Speed Point-to-Point 5 GHz Wireless Bridge with up to 3 Km range

The B333f is designed for delivering high-speed point-to-point Full Duplex connectivity, with network management and traffic shaping. Easily bridging the gap between multiple communication sites. An enclosure with Two integrated antennas shows outstanding performance in the medium distance Ultra high speed setups. Supplying the power and Ethernet connectivity concurrently via a single Ethernet cable, the Power Over Ethernet (POE) technology makes quick outdoor installation fairly easy.

** Range & speed specifications should be used as guidelines only. Range & speed depends on a variety of factors including antenna alignment, RF signal reflection, and interference, and might differ quite significantly between different environments.
Seamless integration
All modules are based on international standard RFC’s and therefore flexibility and excellent cooperation in any network environment are guaranteed.

Bandwidth manager
Data bandwidth management (classfull queueing) per IP / protocol / subnet / port / firewall mark; HTB, PCQ, RED, SFQ, byte limited queue, packet limited queue; hierarchical limitation, CIR, MIR, contention ratios, dynamic client rate equalizing (PCQ).
Again with the Bandwidth management module, the way’s to manage traffic are excellent. Not only bandwidth can be managed per subscriber, but also per protocol or service on the Internet. For example subscriber misuse via Bittorrent or Kazak can be put to a minimum or even stopped. On the other hand services like Voice or Video over IP can be given a fixed bandwidth and a higher priority. This guaranties real Quality of Service to (paying) subscribers on important services in the network, while not denying less important services (like the mentioned P2P activities) for other users.

WinBox management
It’s Operating system supports controlled access to networks networks in a very flexible way. The Wandy Station seamlessly intergrades in multi vendor networks. All modules are RFC compliant and therefore the Wandy Station guaranties flexibility and excellent cooperation in any network environment. To control the Wandy Station a Windows based System Management program is provided, WinBox. This program is a part of the system and comes free of charge with all Wandy Station products.
The WinBox system management program enables you to manage the HotSpot from anywhere over the world. All is needed is an Internet connection.
WinBox connects over a secured tunnel to the Wandy Station. In WinBox you will find that the Operating System can be configured in a very comfortable manner.

Support
Any network engineer with some knowledge about routing and switching can operate and configure a Wandy Station within a few day’s. Off cause if additional support is needed we gladly help you on your way. The first year support by mail, phone ore remote login on all Wandy Stations is free of charge.
