Wireless Bridge Options

johnsyoung86

I noticed that most of the Cisco Bridge products are now End of Life.  Is the current way to make a wireless bride to use an AP and setting it up as a bridge?  What product options do you suggest?  I just need to create a wireless bridge between our corp. office and a warehouse about 1/2 mile away to extend internet connection.  Buildings have line of sight.

Cisco recently released 1532 and 1572 radios. I shot the 1532 over a mile without issue just make sure you have line of sight.

You can use 1500 series AccessPoint. They are Mesh APs and used for bridging. They are much better then the 1300 and 1400 series bridges.
