Psion Teklogix 9160 Wireless Gateway User Manual
The dual-band access point is capable of broadcasting in the following modes:
• IEEE 802.11b mode.
• IEEE 802.11g mode.
• IEEE 802.11a mode.
• Atheros Turbo 5 GHz.
• Atheros Dynamic Turbo 5 GHz.
• Atheros Turbo 2.4 GHz.
• Atheros Dynamic Turbo 2.4 GHz.
Important: Psion Teklogix terminals do not support Atheros Turbo modes
and to prevent unnecessary radio overhead the use of Turbo mode
is not recommended.
Given these capabilities, various hardware configurations for the end product are
possible. For example, a two-radio access point with dual-band capabilities is
capable of broadcasting in two different IEEE 802.11 modes simultaneously.
The following sections list features and benefits of the 9160 Wireless Gateway, and
tell you what’s next when you’re ready to get started.
