SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 5
Overview
SkyAccess DualBand is a dual-radio solution that combines SkyPilot’s
long- range, high-capacity 5 GHz mesh backhaul with a high-powered
802.11b/g access point that lets service providers and municipalities offer
standard Wi-Fi to subscribers.
Features and benefits
SkyAccess DualBand provides a highly flexible wireless solution that
combines scalable Wi-Fi capacity with the seamless coverage of a
wireless mesh network.
Each SkyAccess DualBand can support multiple WLANs (wireless local
area networks), each with its own VLAN and security policy. One
SkyAccess DualBand can support several business models with a single
service installation.
About access point configuration
The SkyAccess DualBand access point is set up to provide Wi-Fi access
right out of the box. The access point includes a preconfigured WLAN
with the SSID (service set identifier) SkyAccessDualBand, providing
WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi protected access – pre-shared key) protection. Users
attempting to connect to the SkyAccessDualBand WLAN must provide
a password (publicpublic by default). The default configuration is
provided for initial management and configuration of the SkyAccess
DualBand access point via a wireless connection. You should always
create a unique access point configuration before testing the device or
making it available to customers.
