High-Speed 5 GHz Wireless Performance

The Hikvision DS-3WF02-5AC/D (O-STD) operates on the 5 GHz frequency band, taking advantage of reduced wireless interference and broader bandwidth availability to deliver up to 867 Mbps of throughput. This higher-frequency operation enables robust wireless communication that supports video streaming, data backhaul, and large file transfers with minimal latency or packet loss.

Because the 5 GHz band experiences less congestion than traditional 2.4 GHz links, the bridge maintains higher throughput and more consistent connections across distance — especially in environments with multiple wireless devices.

Extended Coverage for Outdoor Deployment

This wireless bridge achieves long-distance connectivity, capable of linking network segments up to 2.5 km apart in clear line-of-sight scenarios. This capability makes it a practical choice for connecting buildings, yards, outdoor surveillance networks, or remote monitoring locations where physical cabling would be expensive or impractical.

Furthermore, its built-in directional antenna focuses signal strength effectively, improving link reliability and reducing interference from surrounding wireless noise. For installers and network planners, this means stronger signals and fewer interruptions across extended deployments.

Simplified Installation with PoE Support

The DS-3WF02-5AC/D supports 24 V passive PoE, allowing both power and data to travel through a single Ethernet cable. This approach reduces wiring complexity, minimizes installation costs, and eliminates the need for separate power outlets at the device location. Consequently, deployment becomes faster, cleaner, and more efficient.

The unit’s pole-mount and wall-mount options improve installation flexibility, making it easy to position the antenna for optimal coverage without excessive hardware or specialized mounting brackets.

Rugged Outdoor-Ready Design

Built to withstand demanding environments, the DS-3WF02-5AC/D features a weather-resistant enclosure and an extended operating temperature range (−30 °C to +70 °C). This ensures reliable performance in varied climates, including heat, cold, rain, and humidity. Its robust construction enhances longevity, while the fanless design reduces moving parts that can fail or require maintenance.

This industrial-grade durability makes the bridge suitable for outdoor environments such as campuses, industrial parks, transportation hubs, and perimeter security deployments.

Secure & Manageable Wireless Networking

The DS-3WF02-5AC/D supports WPA and WPA2 encryption, which helps safeguard network transmissions from unauthorized access and ensures data integrity. Network administrators can configure and monitor device settings through a web-based interface, enabling secure access control, performance tuning, and status monitoring with ease.

Because ease of configuration matters in large deployments, the intuitive management interface lets technicians adjust wireless parameters, monitor link quality, and troubleshoot issues without heavy technical overhead.

Use Cases & Applications

The Hikvision DS-3WF02-5AC/D (O-STD) is ideal for:

• Outdoor surveillance network backhaul
• Point-to-point building connections
• Wireless extension of remote sites
• Temporary network links for events or construction
• Campus and industrial park connectivity

By offering high-speed, reliable wireless bridging, this device supports robust network expansion without expensive cabling or extensive infrastructure changes.

Conclusion

The Hikvision DS-3WF02-5AC/D (O-STD) is a 5 GHz outdoor wireless bridge that combines high throughput, extended range, simplified PoE installation, and rugged outdoor design to provide dependable wireless connectivity across long distances. Whether linking remote buildings, extending surveillance networks, or supporting outdoor IoT applications, it delivers consistent performance in demanding environments. Its ease of deployment, secure wireless operation, and industrial durability make it a practical and scalable choice for professional network deployments that require reliable long-range communication.
