Introduction

The versatile 300Mbps Wireless N Access Point is designed to create a scalable high speed

wireless n network or to connect a wired device to an existing wireless network.

Use multiple 300Mbps Wireless N Access Points together to extend your network using

Wireless Distribution System (WDS), Wireless Bridge and AP Client Modes.

Expand a wireless network without running additional cabling with Wireless Distribution

Service (WDS) technology by connecting multiple access points wirelessly. Use Wireless

Bridge Mode to connect devices such as game consoles, printers and digital video recorders

(DVR) to your wireless network. Advanced antenna technology (MIMO) increases wireless

coverage and WPA / WPA2 encryption protects your wireless network.

Features

•Compact high performance wireless n access point

•Wireless Bridge mode for Ethernet-to-wireless bridging function

•Works as an access point and a wireless adapter

•Compliant with IEEE 802.wireless n (draft 2.0), IEEE 802.wireless g and 802.11b standards

•compatible with 802.11b/g/n networks

•Up to a 300Mbps data rate using an 802.wireless n

•Expand a wireless network using AP client mode or Wireless Distribution System (WDS)

•Support for the 802.11e Quality of Service (QoS) standard

•2 removable antennas to support high speed performance and expanded coverage

•Supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) feature allowing you to integrate other WPS devices into your network

quickly

Installation Considerations

The TEW-638APB AP lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually

anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location

of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range.

Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise

in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:

1 Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the TEW-638APB and other network devices

to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your wireless product’s range from 3-90 feet

(1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.

2 Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at

a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks

over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a

wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.

3 Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum studs may

have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless

adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.

4 Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances

that generate extreme RF noise.
