The AireBeam Series provides a choice of RJ45 copper, MM, or SM fiber connectors, and can be powered via PoE.

Alarm reporting is available via SNMP traps, RMON counters, TELNET and separate RS232 terminal connection. To make the bridges easy to align and monitor, LightPointe includes an industry exclusive multi-function display on the rear panels with RSSI receive signal bar graph LEDs, network status indicator and various status LEDs.
