Getting online with any of our Marine Wireless Bridge systems is as easy as plugging a standard network cable into the Ethernet port on your computer. Your computer doesn't have to have its own Wi-Fi adapter, or any other special hardware. The Marine Wireless Bridge does all the work, delivering the Internet to the computer just as if the computer were plugged into the wall at an office.
Our Marine Wireless Bridges have several advantages over built-in Wi-Fi, USB adapters, and similar systems:

• 16x More Transmit Power. Because they incorporate a powerful transmitter and an above-deck antenna, and eliminate any signal loss from a long antenna cable run, our Marine Wireless Bridges have far more range than most other Wi-Fi solutions.
  
• Flexible Mounting. The MWB-200 and MWB-220 are portable units that can be stowed below while under way, and placed on deck when you're within range of a Wi-Fi network. Thanks to their built-in Power-Over-Ethernet technology, a single network cable is the only connection required.
  
• Advanced Networking Features. Unlike most Wi-Fi adapters, our Marine Wireless Bridges are stand-alone devices on the network, so each includes its own internal DHCP server and a Site Survey utility for detecting available wireless networks. They also support advanced encryption, including WEP64, WEP128, 802.1x, WPA-TKIP, WPA2-AES & WPA-Mixed.
  
• High-Speed Data Transfer. Our Marine Wireless Bridges are compatible with both 802.11b and 802.11g access points, so they will work almost anywhere Wi-Fi is available, and will deliver throughput of up to 54 megabits per second.
