Hikvision DS-3WF02-5AC/D 5 GHz 867 Mbps Outdoor Wireless Bridge
This high-performance wireless bridge is engineered to connect network branches over long distances without physical wiring. Operating on the clean 5 GHz frequency band and supporting IEEE 802.11ac standards, it achieves a maximum wireless data transmission rate of up to 867 Mbps. With its built-in 12 dBi 2x2 MIMO directional antenna, it ensures a highly concentrated signal beam width (35° horizontal and vertical), minimizing interference in congested wireless environments.
Designed for durable outdoor deployment, the bridge is housed in a robust IP55 enclosure that operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -30 °C to +65 °C. The kit features flexible power options (PoE or local DC input) and supports both Point-to-Point (PtP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) topologies, making it ideal for rural yards, construction sites, farm perimeters, and parking lots.
Long-Distance High-Bandwidth Transmission
Achieves transmission distances up to 5 km with throughput rates up to 90 Mbps at shorter distances (0.5–1 km). This high capacity easily supports multiple high-definition IP camera streams simultaneously, ensuring real-time monitoring without latency.
Directional High-Gain 12 dBi Antenna
Equipped with an integrated 12 dBi directional antenna featuring a 35° beam width. This directional signal focus maximizes transmission distance and signal strength while reducing surrounding RF noise.
Ruggedized IP55 Outdoor Enclosure
Built to withstand harsh weather, including heavy rain, dust, and freezing temperatures. Housed in a compact, pole-mountable plastic casing, it operates continuously in environments down to -30 °C.
