1.1 Function Overview

HUAWEI WS320 Wireless Repeater (hereinafter referred to as the WS320) is a radio
signal repeater that can work with wireless access points (APs) to extend the wireless
network coverage.
Using the WS320 over a wireless network effectively helps solve radio signal issues,
such as signal impairment and attenuation. The WS320 receives radio frequency
signals (that is, 802.11 frames) from wireless devices, such as APs, clients, or other
repeaters, and forwards the fra mes without changing the contents of the frames, thus
extending the wireless network coverage. The wireless signals of the WS320 can cover
some dead zones, such as the partition walls or partition floors of bedrooms, cellars, or
yards, thus effectively extending the wireless signal coverage and easily implementi ng
various wir eless applications.
A wireless local area network (WLAN) with the WS320 supports the IEEE 802.11b,
802.11g, and 802.11n standards, providing you with high-rate wireless networking
functions.
