The CW-500 R1 hardware using a wireless amplifier chip, which enhances the signal distance capability and stability. It’s built-in dual-band 2×2 (2.4G/5G) 5dBi antennas in four sets to achieve high-speed transmission and reception for wireless MU-MIMO. All Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (PD in) function, allowing both power and data to be provided through CAT5e cabling. No need to worry about power supply installation.

The CW-500 R1 bundles CentOS 5.0 software core and supports CAP (Controlled Access Point) mode for centralized AP management. It can manage up to 64 wireless APs simultaneously. The AP mode supports authentication features (AAP authentication entry wireless base station) and built-in 802.1x RADIUS Server account function. Additionally, the AAP mode also supports Repeater and WISP operation modes, making it easy for users to establish or extend wireless AP in various deployment environments. It’s the best solution for deployment in enterprises, factories, conference rooms, schools, and WISP applications.
