WILIBOARD WBD-111

Multi-purpose platform: WBD-111

WILIBOARD WBD-111 is the smallest and fastest multi-function wireless platform on the market, passing up to 94 Mbit real TCP throughput. The WBD-111 is designed to fit into a standard aluminum profile enclosure (86 mm) to work as a quick time-to-market solution for a variety of applications ranging from WISP customer premise equipment, 3G routers, WiMAX customer premise equipment, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless bridges, wireless mesh repeaters and 802.11 access points. A groundbreaking 400 MIPS ARM920 RISC processor with separate embedded MMU and 8K/16K data/instruction cache powers the WBD-111. It also has 8 MB flash and 32 MB RAM memory size.

Carrier grade components:

In addition, the WBD-111 is designed to work in an outdoor environment with carrier grade IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) ± 15 kV (air), ± 8 kV (contact) and IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40 A (5/50 ns) protection, fuse protection, polarity-independent POE, as well as on-board overvoltage and overheating protection. The WBD-111 features detachable LED and reset connectors, enabling easy integration into a variety of outdoor enclosures. Two out of the four LEDs are used to indicate power and LAN connectivity, and the other two are programmable (2 color) LEDs that can be adapted to various monitoring attributes, e.g. signal strength indication. Low power consumption (1.8W in idle mode only) and wide input voltage range (from 9V to 24V) makes the platform suitable for solar and wind-powered devices. All of these features combined into a single, compact package that is loaded with the latest expansion technologies to accommodate future hardware needs, makes the WBD-111 stand out from the crowd and present itself as one of the best wireless solutions currently available on the market.

WILIGEAR announces OpenWRT support for the WBD-111 and WBD-324S* CPU Boards. WILI-S firmware can now be changed to OpenWRT firmware using the Kamikaze development branch release of OpenWRT. All users will now be able to download binary files directly from the WILIGEAR website. The firmware modification process is very straightforward, requiring a simple upload of the firmware file through the upgrade section of the GUI (graphical user interface). Packages included in the published binary file are listed on the OpenWRT section of the WILIGEAR homepage. Customers who purchase more than 10 pieces of the WBD-111 or WBD-324S CPU boards will have the opportunity to receive them with the OpenWRT firmware image preloaded. Additionally, in the future WILIGEAR will provide the option to build customized OpenWRT firmware images on the WILIGEAR Firmware Factory, where users will be able to choose their platform and additional packages to combine into the firmware image.

*Support for the WBD-324S will be available in the near future.
