Description
Silex BR-500AC WLAN Bridge
Ethernet to Wi-Fi Bridge
The BR-500AC is the first commercially available dual-band Ethernet to Wi-Fi bridge that offers the 802.11ac Wave 2 2x2 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi standard while also supporting WPA3-Enterprise Wi-Fi security. The BR-500AC utilizes the advanced features of the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard and securely connects any Ethernet device to your wireless network.
Exceptionally secure, efficient and reliable Wi-Fi bridge
The BR-500AC can integrate any Ethernet-enabled device into a secure wireless network. The bridge supports Wi-Fi Enhanced Open and WPA3-Enterprise with the most commonly used EAP types. With the advanced features of 802.11ac Wave 2, such as MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple Output), the BR-500AC provides an efficient wireless network with modern access points. Silex's proprietary Wi-Fi driver, a further development of a Qualcomm driver, ensures a reliable wireless connection required for commercial use. With the BR-500AC, you can wirelessly place and use Ethernet devices even where installing cables would be too complex.
Connect Ethernet devices to your Wi-Fi network
The BR-500AC supports two connection types: single-client mode and multi-client mode. In single-client mode, the BR-500AC seamlessly integrates an Ethernet device into an 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless network. In addition, in multi-client mode, it can connect up to 16 Ethernet devices linked via a network hub to the wireless network.
Secure wireless connection with WPA3 and enterprise security
The BR-500AC offers state-of-the-art Wi-Fi WPA security, WPA3, in combination with 802.1X authentication to guarantee WPA3-Enterprise network security. In addition, the BR-500AC also supports WPA3-Personal with the SAE method, so the bridge can also be used in businesses that rely on PSK encryption for secure authentication.
Fast roaming for mobility
The BR-500AC supports fast roaming and is therefore also ideal for mobile Ethernet devices such as medical carts or mobile workstations.
Efficient Wi-Fi network through MU-MIMO/WME
The BR-500AC with an MU-MIMO-capable access point improves the efficiency of the Wi-Fi network by using spatial streaming for simultaneous access to multiple MU-MIMO stations. The bridge also supports WME (Wireless Multimedia Extensions) to prioritize the data packets of the Ethernet device in the Wi-Fi network for QoS (Quality of Service).
MAC address filtering
The BR-500AC supports MAC address filtering, which makes it possible to secure home networks using MAC addresses, unique device identifiers. Once MAC address filtering is activated, only the devices you have enabled can connect to the bridge and the network, which further increases the security of the network.
Easy configuration for quick installation
The configuration of the BR-500AC is simple and quick via the integrated configuration website or the AMC Manager. If special device configurations are required, for example because you want to install multiple BR-500ACs with specific configurations, our support team will be happy to assist you.
Multi-User MIMO/ MU-MIMO
As part of the Wave 2 development of the 802.11ac standard, Multi-User MIMO technology was introduced. By using Multi-User MIMO, this device can stream data to multiple devices simultaneously. This allows your Wi-Fi network to deliver faster throughput to every connected client. This means faster downloads and lag-free streaming for your devices.
WPA3-Enterprise supports only 128-bit security
