The Comtrend WAP-5883 Wireless Range Extender is a three-in-one device to support the wireless needs of both home and office environments. Using the 802.11b/g/n wireless standard, the WAP-5883 has a data transfer rate of up to 300Mbps.

Its modes are instantly accessible by a three-position switch on its exterior. When set to Repeater mode, the WAP-5883 extends wireless coverage of your existing Access Point to typically hard-to-reach areas.

When connected to a network using an Ethernet cable, AP mode turns the WAP-5883 into an Access Point. And Client mode allows compatible Ethernet devices, like game consoles and Blu-ray devices to connect to a wireless network.

Small in size, the WAP-5883 is easy to install. By plugging directly into the wall, there is no need for cords, or an external power supply.

For set-up and security, the WAP-5883 includes a WPS button, allowing instant security when paired with another device. Configuration is quickly accomplished through a simple web-based user interface.
