Package Contents Lightning Bolt 2x Dual band 2.4/5GHZ Omni Antenna 7/9dBi 2. Introduction The N-Connex Lightning Bolt provides convenient WiFi capability to N-Connex based networks. Built for harsh environmentsThe Lighting Bolt is a compact 2.4/5GHz 2x2 MIMO wireless access point suitable for use some operations. The Lighting Bolt has two N-Type antenna connectors to fit an assortment of industry standard antenna options. Powered by PoE, a single Cat6 cable provides network connectivity and power, making installation easy and intuitive. The secret power of the N-Connex Lighting Bolt is the built-in WiFi tracking function. When paired with NLTs flagship software Digital Mine and NLT WiFi tracking tags the N-Connex Lightning Bolt becomes a powerful tracking device. The Lightning Bolt is capable of tracking and reporting to NLT Digital Mine software, personnel, vehicles, or assets that are within its vicinity. The N-Connex Lightning Bolt can be deployed at a maximum distance of 300m from a PoE switch using Cat6 ethernet cables and N-Connex PoE extenders. 3.
