Illustration of a Wireless Distribution System (WDS). Two buildings with Preconfigured Point-to-Point Bridge sending signals to each other are depicted. The left building is taller with multiple rows of windows, while the right one is shorter with a simpler design. Between them, a shield with a lock icon symbolizes a secure connection. Above this setup, the text Wireless Distribution System (WDS) is displayed.

Point-to-Point Bridge

The outdoor wireless access point supports reliable, high-speed wireless N300 point-to-point networking (2.4GHz).

Diagram of a Preconfigured Point-to-Point Bridge connected via a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter. The bridge device has two cables: one connected to the PoE port labeled ‘Power + Data out’ and the other to the LAN port labeled ‘Data in LAN.’ Additionally, there is an input labeled ‘Power adapter in’ on the PoE adapter.

PoE Power Adapter

Included passive PoE injector provides power and data over a single Ethernet cable with a maximum distance of 20m (66 ft.).

Graphic with two symbols and a label indicating IP56 rating. The first symbol represents dust protection, and the second symbol indicates water resistance. Below the symbols, IP56 is displayed in bold, signifying protection from dust particles and water.

Outdoor Ready

Durable enclosure with an IP56 outdoor weather rating, and an operating temperature range of -22° – 60° C (-7.6° – 140° F).

Two buildings with multiple windows are connected by a wireless signal represented by a blue beam. Each building has a device labeled TEW-740APBO mounted on the exterior wall. Various people are engaging in activities such as sitting at tables, walking, and riding a bicycle in the courtyard between the buildings, illustrating wireless communication.
