CHAPTER1:INTRODUCTION

USBADAPTORINTRODUCTION

ThankyouforyourpurchaseoftheAIR802USB‐ADG‐2adaptor.ThisUSBadaptoroffersgreat

valuewhetheryouareanindividualpurchasingforuseathomeorforuseinabusinessofany

size.

USBadaptorsareasimpleandeasywaytoaddwirelesstoacomputer.Themajorityof

computersnowshipwithwirelesscardsbuilt‐in,butuserscommonlyfindweaksignals.This

weaksignalcanoccurduetoseveralfactors.Oneitmaybetoofarfromawirelessrouteror

accesspoint,mostinternalwirelesscardsdonotprovidesignificantradiofrequency(RF)gain.

Anotherfactoristhatalmostallbuilt‐incardshavetheantennasoperatinghorizontally,where

thewirelessrouteroraccesspointhasverticallypolarizedantennas.Thisresultsinsignificant

signalloss.Whatevertheresultingcauseoftheweaksignalis,theUSB‐ADG‐2withitsexternal

andremovableantennawillenhanceyourwirelessexperience.Thiskeytosuccessfulwireless

exerienceistheexternalandremovableantennawiththeflexibilityofusingalternative

antennas.

Thecompactdesignmakesiteasyforyoutotravelwiththeadaptor.Itdrawsitspowerfrom

theUSBport,soyoudonotneedanexternalpowersupply.

Thisadaptorsupportsveryhighspeedsupto54MbpspertheIEEE802.11gspecification.Of

course,mostbroadbandconnectionsareDSLorcablemodemsthatarelimitedgenerallytoless

than6Mbps,whichdeterminestheultimatethroughputratesinaccessingtheInternet.

CHAPTER2:NETWORKPLANNINGANDARCHITECTURE

AD‐HOCVERSUSINFRASTRUCTUREMODE

Wirelesslocalareanetworks(WLAN),asspecificedintheIEEE802.11b/gstandardshavetwo

differentconfigurationmodes:

•Ad‐Hoc

•Infrastructure



Ad‐HocisagroupofcomputersequippedwitheitherWLANcardsorwirelessUSBadapters.

ThegroupofcomputersiscalledaBasicServiceSet(BSS).Theycommunicatewitheachother

eliminatingtheneedforanaccesspointorrouterdevice.ComputersinAd‐Hocmodecannot

communicatewithcomputersonawirednetworkorconnecttotheInternet.Inour

configurationsoftwareitisreferredtoas,“APmode”.Howeverthisdoesnotimplythatitisan

accesspointinthenormalsense.Ad‐Hocisshowninthediagramontheleftsidebelow.



InfrastructureiswhereacomputerorothernetworkdeviceequippedwithwithWLANcardor

USBadaptercommunicatesdirectlywithanaccesspointorwirelessrouter.Infrastructure

modeisthenormalmodeofuseformostusers.Itisreferredtoas,“stationmode”inour

configurationsoftware.Aninfrastructureexampleisshowninthediagramontherightabove.

USBEXTENSIONCABLE

TheremaybecircumstanceswhereyoumayprefernottoplugtheUSBadapterdirectlyintoa

USBport.Thismightincludescenariossuchasadesktopcomputersittingonthefloorandthe

desiretogettheadapteruphigherontopofadeskprovidinglesssignalobstructionsand

improvedperformance.AnUSBextensioncablewouldfacilitatethiseffort.Anotherscenario

mightbethatyouarenotusingtheantennashippedwiththeproductandhaveinstalleda

coaxialcablefromtheUSBadaptertoanantennainstalledoutdoorsforexternalnetwork

connectivity.Thecoaxialcable,dependingonthetypeandsizecouldcausesomestrainonthe

adapterinanUSBport.Inthiscase,theuseofaUSBextensioncablewouldbeuseful.



TherearetwotypesofUSBconnectors,TypeAandTypeB.TheTypeAisarectangular

connectorandTypeBisasquareconnector.TypeAisshowninthephotobelow.



IfyourapplicationrequiresusingtheUSBadapteroutsideoftheUSBportonyourcomputer,

thenanUSBextensioncableisappropriate.YouwillneedaUSBTypeA(male)toplugintothe

computerandaUSBTypeA(female)toplugintheUSBadapter.USBextensioncablesby

standardsspecificationarelimitedto15feetinlength.AIR802currentlymanufacturesUSB

extenssioncablesin3and6footUSBlengthsandtheyareavailableat

ALTERNATIVEANTENNAS

TheUSB‐ADG‐2issoldwitha5dBigaindipoletypeantena.Thisantennaradiatesradio

frequency(RF)in360degrees.Usersmaydependingontheirapplicationandneedsfind

alternativeantennastobeuseful.AIR802manufacturesawiderangeofantennaswhichcould

beusedwiththisadapter.Antennasalonedonotdeterminethedistancethatyoumayreach.It

isafactoroftheRFtransmitpowerandreceiversensitivity(withtheUSBadapterandthe

accesspoint/routerdevice),anycablingloss,freespacelossandantennagainandotherfactors

suchasinterferenceinthe2.4GHzISMband.Withline‐of‐sight,antennnasandaproper

installation,apoint‐to‐pointnetworkcanbeachievedfor1mileormore.



Outdoorantennascanbeusedindoorsandwillalmostalwayswillprovidebetterresultsthan

anindoorantennaofthesamegain.ToinstallanantennaremoteoftheUSBadapter,youwill

needtopurchaseaspecialAIR802antennacableasssembly.Thecableassemblywillrequirea

RP‐SMA(plug)attheUSBadapterend.AIR802outdoorantennaswillrequireaN(male)



ResidentialNetwork–ComputertoRouterConnectivity

•Residentialuserscommonlydonotreceiveadequatesignalcoveragethrougouttheir

home.Itisoftenassumedthatreplacingtheexistingrouterantennaforamodelwith

highergainwillresolvetheissue.Whileinsomecircumstancesthismayhelp,often

theproblemisthattheinternalwirelesscardinthecomputerproducestoweakofa

signaltoreachtherouter.InstallingtheAIR802USB‐ADG‐2devicewillnormally

significantlyimprovethisscenario.Externalantennassimplyprovidebetter
