About the 2100 Universal
Access Point
The 2100 Universal Access Point™ (UAP) is a
transparent bridge that enables your wireless
end devices to communicate with devices on
your wired network.

Additionally, if the UAP has a 900 MHz Falcon
radio or two 2.4 GHz OpenAir radios installed,
you can configure the UAP as one of these
devices:
• Point-to-point bridge, which connects two
wired networks, such as between buildings
• Repeater or wireless access point, which
extends the range of your wireless devices
After you configure and install the UAP through
a serial connection, you can manage it remotely
using SNMP, Telnet, or a Web browser.
System Requirements
To configure the 2100 Universal Access Point,
you need:
• Power cable
• Antenna (and antenna cable for an external

If you are using the UAP as an access point or
point-to-point bridge, you also need:
• Ethernet cable drop and cable
