U.K. wireless network provider Telabria has added a new node to its CampusMesh line of indoor and outdoor wireless mesh access points and routers. The new weatherproof mNode300 provides outdoor Wi-Fi coverage, using a second radio to backhaul network traffic, which removes the need for Ethernet cabling.
Telabria says the device will be part of an ongoing project to provide students with wireless access to educational resources in Kent libraries, schools and other public sector locations. At any CampusMesh-equipped location, Kent students can access school network resources, the Internet, reference material and school projects from tablet PCs equipped with Intel Centrino mobile technology.
The company’s CampusMesh line delivers tri-band (802.11 a/b/g) Wi-Fi access without relying on traditional cable-based fixed networks.
