The TL-WA501G 54Mbps Wireless Access Point is the basic building block of a wireless LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other devices.

The TL-WA501G 54Mbps Wireless Access Point acts as a bridge between the wired LAN and wireless clients. Connecting multiple TL-WA501G Access Points via a wired Ethernet backbone can further lengthen the wireless network coverage. As a mobile computing device moves out of the range of one access point, it moves into the range of another. As a result, wireless clients can freely roam from one Access Point to another and still maintain seamless connection to the network.

In the most attentive wireless security, the TL-WA501G 54Mbps Wireless Access Point provides multiple protection measures. It can be set to turn off wireless network name (SSID) broadcast so that only stations that have the SSID can be connected. The AP provides wireless LAN 64/128/152-bit WEP encryption security, and WPA/WPA2 and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authentication, as well as TKIP/AES encryption security. It also supports VPN pass-through for sensitive data secure transmission.

The TL-WA501G 54Mbps Wireless Access Point complies with the IEEE 802.11g/b standards so that the data transmission rate is up to 54Mbps. It adopts 2x to 3x eXtended Range TM WLAN transmission technology so that transmission distance is 2-3 times of traditional IEEE 802.11g/b solutions, up to a distance of 855.36m tested in China. Transmission range is extended to 4-9 times. It is compatible with all IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b products
