What hardware do I need?

Hello,

This may be easy to many of you, so I hope to gleen some of your expertise. I have two buildings 400ft apart. I have an access point (1200) and a yagi antenna pointing from one building to the other. What device will I use in the receiving building where I want to plug an Allen-Bradley hub into. In other words a standard PCI or cardbus adapter will not work, because I need to plug the hub into the network that is being beamed via the AP. Another way of saying it is building A has an Allen-Bradley PLC server that administers serveral AB devices with an AB Protocol. I need to attach a few more AB devices to that PLC in building B. Wireless would be the only solution. I will connect (CAT5) the AB PLC to a 1200 AP and use a Yagi directional antenna to beam to building B. What do I use in building B to plug the AB devices in (CAT5) to connect to the PLC's LAN? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

carsen

Hi Carsen,

You may want to look at the Workgroup bridge solution.
