A T1 Alternative for Z-Haus?

3Com® 11g 54Mbps Wireless LAN Outdoor Building-to-Building Bridge
“Avoid fiber cable installation expenses and problems or monthly T1/E1 charges by connecting LANs over secure, high-speed wireless links. The outdoor building-to-building bridge with integrated 18dBi high-gain panel antenna is designed for short- or long-distance (up to 17 km or 10 miles) communications, connecting to another bridge. The outdoor bridge gives you an intelligent, economical solution for connecting LANs in campus-like settings when deployed with 3Com® 11g 54Mbps Wireless LAN Indoor Building-to-Building Bridges.

The 11g 54 Mbps Outdoor Bridge delivers 10 to 20 times the bandwidth of T1/E1 links and supports up to 1,000 clients. It will operate in a either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint (within the 19°-beam angle) configuration to meet growth and application demands.

WPA-PSK and AES encryption and authentication provide high levels of security using the latest industry standards. VPN and VLAN support keeps network data private and transmissions safe from security breaches. Setup-wizard software makes installation and configuration easy. Once setup is complete, the building-to-building bridge can be remotely managed using a standard Web browser or SNMP management tools.”
