BERKELEY, Calif., Jan. 6, 2003, with the phrase "Unleash your Airport!" MacWireless debuts its latest product Power Over Ethernet. By carrying DC power over the same CAT5 cable that carries data, this innovative and low cost product, allows mounting the Apple Airport Base Station up to 250 feet away from power outlets, host or hub. Ability to freely relocate an access point rather than tethering it a few feet from the wall-wart provides for far better signal coverage and can extend the WiFi network’s operating reach by 250 feet or more possibly to locations otherwise inaccessible.
POE complements MacWireless’ full line of wireless products. With the motto "All Macs deserve wireless!", MacWireless President and CEO, Manooch Khajeh, is confident of success. "Not only will MacWireless.com offer the Macintosh community wireless capacity at a substantial savings, but we stand alone in offering all Mac owners the opportunity to go wireless, no matter how old or new the machines may be. If you have a PowerBook 190, 5300, 2400, a desktop PCI system, or a machine with a USB port such as an iMac, MacWireless offers you a wireless network connection. What’s more, all of our products are dual-platform, so our Mac users can use any of our products on their PCs as well".
