Network OWS enables the deployment of 802.11 networks across
large urban areas, rural counties and entire regions — ideal for
government agencies, public utility and transportation providers, and
mobile users who want uninterrupted service on a citywide basis. Unlike
traditional access points that offer limited coverage within predefined
hot spots, or single radio/single RF mesh solutions that won’t scale,
Access/One Network OWS provisions wireless hot zones that can extend
over hundreds of square miles. Not an access point, but a fully
integrated and coherent wireless network system that delivers
intelligence, scalability, security and unrivaled performance to the
outdoor environment. The Future Is Now Access/One Network OWS delivers any mix of backhaul and client services in a single form factor to simplify planning and installation, reduce deployment costs, and deliver a high performance wireless mesh networking system.  Access/One Network OWS builds on our proven
indoor distributed mesh architecture by offering backhaul and client
services in a high performance 802.11a/b/g model, unlike competitive
solutions that offer either a single wireless technology or require
third party APs to provision client services. The roles of specific
nodes within the network are determined by the mix of modules mounted
in the enclosure and how they are configured—either client connect,
network connect, or network server. The Access/One Network OWS can
support any combination of 802.11 a/b/g, both to the client and in the
mesh backbone, dedicating modules for specific functions within a node.
Supporting up to 6 radios in an Access/One Network OWS node means
maximum flexibility to deliver multi-radio mesh backbones, and multi-RF
client connectivity. Download our System Description Brochure to learn more about how the Access/One Network delivers the highest performance multi-radio, multi-channel, and multi-RF wireless mesh networking system for outdoor deployments.  OverviewAccess/One

Access/One Network IWS achieves fully
wireless connectivity by incorporating mesh topology. The Access/One
Network mesh framework allows for wireless backhaul. Wireless backhaul
frees the network from the ties of Ethernet cable. By removing the
wires, the Access/One Network is infinitely easier and less expensive
to deploy and scale than so-called wireless networks, such as point
products and wireless LAN “switch” systems. Both of those solutions
require that Ethernet cable be run to the access points. And unlike
point products and WLAN “switch” systems, the Access/One Network has no
single point of failure that can disrupt the network. Access/One Network delivers innovative, intelligent management functionality. Access/One Network has distributed intelligence across the system by implementing management software at the node level. Each node is an independent thinking machine, yet all nodes work in concert, constantly inter-communicating to optimize network operation. Access/One Network Nodes self configure, self discover, self tune and self heal. While Access/One Network self-manages, the same management functionality is available via the Manager/One software interface, giving the IT manager complete manual control over Access/One Network’s operation. Not only does Access/One Network deliver an easily managed, truly wireless LAN system, it does so in a small, light-weight, modular design that’s easy to deploy. Every Access/One Network Node supports multiple RF technologies, giving you the ability to build the network that’s right for you. Access/One Network can accommodate any combination of 802.11a/b/g. Modularity offers the ultimate in flexibility. Changing RF technology configurations is as easy as replacing modules. Strix Systems’ future proofs your investment, too. As future RF technologies become available, Access/One Network is ready to adopt.
IT managers demand comprehensive network security. Access/One Network delivers with a full suite of standards based security options for authentication and encryption. Learn more about Strix Systems’ security by reading our security recommendations paper. Strix Systems further lowers the costs and hurdles to
implementation by creating an open standards-based wireless LAN
solution. Access/One Network works as a stand-alone network, but easily
integrates into any existing LAN environment. There’s no need to
integrate new applications or invest in costly hardware add-ons.

Network Connect is the
system infrastructure used by Access/One Network for wired or wireless
connection to the corporate LAN. Each Network Node within the
Access/One Network can utilize a wired 10/100 Ethernet or wireless
802.11a/802.11g module as a method of Node interconnectivity or
connection to the enterprise network. Providing this wired or wireless
choice for Node connectivity to the network achieves the ultimate in
network flexibility and control.  When Nodes in the Access/One Network are equipped with the wireless Network Connect option, the system provides several distinct advantages over a typical wireless network that uses wired connections, including: • Secure Networking – LAN connection has strong encryption by default • Self Tuning – discovery of optimal path for greatest performance • Self Healing – failure conditions are routed around with no user intervention • Highly Scalable – system grows without the need for infrastructure changes • Simple Installation – system self configures itself, no additional wiring • Cost Effective – high costs of pulling Ethernet cables are avoided Unlike traditional wired 10/100 Ethernet LAN connections
used by Access Points and WLAN Switches, the wireless Network Connect
option for Access/One Network provides an advanced level of security
between the Node and the corporate LAN. Utilizing AES encryption with a
secret key by default, the wireless Network Connect link is secure and
cannot be compromised. |
