Vonets VAP11S 2.4GHz WiFi Bridge Repeater Ethernet Extender

The VONETS VAP11S is a compact industrial 2.4GHz WiFi bridge/repeater that converts wireless signals to wired Ethernet and extends network coverage for cameras, DVRs, IoT and other wired devices.

Designed for demanding network scenarios, the VAP11S combines a high-power 2.4GHz radio, two external antennas and dual 10/100Mbps RJ45 interfaces into a small, mountable unit. It supports multiple operation modes—Router, Bridge and Repeater—plus wide input voltage and industrial-grade connectors for stable use with security systems, PLCs, printers and other devices that need dependable network access where a wired link is required.

How does the VAP11S turn WiFi into a stable wired connection?

The device receives a wireless network and forwards data to a wired Ethernet connection using its RJ45 socket and attached cable. It supports IP or MAC-layer transparent bridge modes so devices without wireless capability can appear on the LAN as if they were wired directly.

• Two 10/100Mbps Ethernet interfaces (one fixed cable, one socket) for direct device linking.
• IP/MAC layer transparent bridge to preserve device addressing.
• Compatible with 802.11b/g/n networks up to 300Mbps link rate.

How far and how reliably will it extend my WiFi for cameras or DVRs?

With selectable transmit power (19dBm or 23dBm) and two external antennas, the VAP11S extends wireless range significantly in line-of-sight conditions and delivers reliable links for low- to moderate-bandwidth video streams. Real-world coverage varies with obstacles and signal needs.

• Up to ~300 meters line-of-sight for small-data use cases.
• Typical effective range under 100 meters for video transmission with stable throughput.
• External antennas and high Tx power improve signal penetration and link margin.

What setup options and power choices are available for different installations?

The VAP11S supports multiple modes—Router with WiFi WAN, Bridge, and Repeater—so it can serve as an access point extender, a wireless WAN to wired LAN gateway, or a transparent bridge. Power is flexible across a wide voltage range to suit industrial deployments.

• Router mode with WAN/LAN swap, Bridge (IP or MAC transparent), and Repeater mode.
• Wide DC input 5–24V (typical 12V/1A adapter included) and optional USB power.
• Included industrial DC connector and mounting kit for secure installations.

How does it manage hotspots and automatic reconnection?

VONETS built in hotspot matching and auto-reconnect features let the device find and join stored WiFi networks automatically, supporting motion-triggered reconnection and signal-strength reporting for more autonomous operation.

• Stores up to 100 hotspots and matches by SSID/password or full authentication.
• Signal-strength detection and reporting help maintain reliable links.
• Motion detection and auto-match reduce manual maintenance in remote setups.

Who is this for: The VAP11S is aimed at integrators and installers who need to link wired equipment to existing WiFi—security camera systems, DVRs, industrial controllers, network printers, kiosks and IoT endpoints benefit most. It is also suited for small network extensions where a compact, mountable, and robust wireless-to-wired bridge with flexible power options and external antennas is required.
