The 350 are superior to the 340 in the area of power transmitted, but you
have to be aware that Cisco "WORKGROUP" bridges are jsut for small
workgroups.  I believe that they only allow 3-4 machines to use the bridge.
That is the reason for the lower ($500) price versus the full 350 bridge at
$1400.  If it has "WBR" in the part number , then it is limited to 3-4
machine.

All,

I have a few questions regarding the Aironet 350 workgroup bridges and I
haven't yet found the answers on CCO.   I'm connecting building to building
via Aironet.

1.  Is the 350 series good for this?  From what I can, find the 350 series
appears to be superior to the 340 series.  However, I'm being told by a
design guy that the 350 bridges won't connect building to building.  His
opinion doesn't appear to be accurate.

Furthermore, the 350 series workgroup bridges are $499 vs $1,499 for the 340
workgroup bridge.  Is this because of limited ability or aggressive pricing
by Cisco?

2.  The 350 workgroup bridge documentation at
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/350wgbr.htm shows the workgroup
bridge being connected to the network via an access point.  Is this the
proper configuration for building to building?  I've seen 340 series
workgroup bridge kits that are designed to connect buildings via bridge to
bridge (not using an access point).

3.  Can the 350 workgroup bridge be powered from a regular power adapter as
well as from the ethernet cable?

Thank you very much for your help!

Michael Ashton
