AP-3016
Outdoor Access Point (802.11b)

The TurboWave AP-3016 is a powerful point to multipoint outdoor access point offering the best range and link stability in the industry.

The AP-3016 uses an array of patented smart antennas to transmit up to an amazing 38 miles away in open space. This antenna array uses circular polarization to deliver greater penetration and distance with less interference. This allows wireless network operators to establish a perfect link the moment the radios are activated without the final alignment procedures normally required for yagis or grid antennas using vertical or horizontal polarization. Link quality is superb and absolutely stable. In fact, the antenna performs flawlessly in circumstances when other antennas fail.

The TurboWave AP is also easy to install and manage. Unlike other access points, the TurboWave radio and antenna are housed in one enclosure allowing a direct connection from the AP to the network. To make installation even easier, the AP uses power-over-ethernet to deliver both data and power over one CAT5 cable. It can be mounted unobtrusively on most buildings or on a pole. To configure and manage the device requires only a Web browser. The AP is also designed to work with the TurboWave Management Server for advanced monitoring and management. (For more information, see the TurboWave Management Server data sheet.)

Smart Antenna Array
The array of patented smart antennas uses circular polarization to provide greater penetration, signal stability, and distance allowing you to cover areas impossible to reach with regular antennas.

Higher Tx Power & Rx Sensitivity
Up to 36dBm of gain paired with up to -94dBm of receive sensitivity results in the greatest range and link stability of any other WiFi compatible AP.

Perfect for Tough Applications
The AP-3016 is ideal for urban deployments or in situations that require extra range and capacity. A 30° beadwidth means that 12 APs can be used to provide for exceptional 360° coverage.

Easy Installation
Installing a TurboWave AP is made even easier with integrated power over Ethernet. Just run one cable to the AP and both power and data are carried over CAT5 cable.

Secure
Both WPA and WEP are supported, in addition to MAC address filtering to ensure that no unauthorized clients can access the network. The AP can also ‘hide’ the SSID to prevent casual discovery of the network.

Easy Configuration
A Web browser is all that is required to configure and manage the AP. This allows for both quick setup, as well as remote access to the AP for management and troubleshooting. DHCP and SNMP are also supported to allow even greater deployment flexibility.
