(
Page 2 of 4 )
The SMCWHSG14-G is a multifunctional, manageable,
all-in-one hot-spot solution designed to make it easy and affordable for businesses
to provide secure, password-protected Internet access to customers either as a
value-added service or to generate additional revenue.
The device supports up to 100 simultaneous
wireless and wired users through an integrated four-port 10/100M-bps LAN
switch and 802.11g WAP (wireless access point). The unit incorporates a
Web-based management interface and setup wizard for easy step-by-step
configuration. Host networks are protected from unauthorized access by
comprehensive security that includes a NAT
(Network Address Translation)-based firewall, MAC
(media access control) address filtering, 64- and 128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) encryption and AAA
(authentication, authorization and accounting) services for both wired and
wireless clients.
The SMCWHSG14-G can be placed on a desktop, mounted on a wall or deployed
most anywhere, thanks to support for POE (power over Ethernet), which
eliminates the need for a separate power supply. The included POS
printer supports ticket and receipt printing and supports the use of flexible
billing methods by connecting to a variety of common Internet-based payment
gateways. Customizable log-on and log-off pages can be combined with portal
pages, and advertisement page delivery via the Web can also be implemented.
