Overview

"Parrot 11Mbps" and "MAC V3.2" is silkscreened on the board.

This access point is a No Wires Needed Parrot 1100, like the BreezeCOM AP-DS.11.

This device is using a VLSI VPS10101-1 (Ruby II General-Purpose PCMCIA controller w/ 32-bit ARM6 core, press release on the chip from 1995) and an AMD Am79C961AKC ISA Ethernet controller.

The VLSI CPU is presumably handling the MAC + AP functions of this board.

Per the FCC parts list..

  • the VLSI VPS10101-1 is marked as the CPU
  • an Xilinx Spartan XCS10 (XCS10-3VQ100C) FPGA, not visible on the below board scan - presumably under the RF shield
  • an additional 128k x 8 SRAM (UMC UM611024BSW-15), which is not visible on the below board scan.
  • the RFIC collection is a motley collection Harris's PRISM (the original) ICs
    • HFA3860 (IV) - BBP (BaseBand Processor)
    • HFA3724 (IN) - QAM (Modulator/Demodulator)
    • HFA3624 (IA) - RFIC (Prescalar + IF/RF)
    • HFA3524 (IA) - DS (Digital Synthesizer)
    • HFA3424 (IB) - LNA (Low Noise Amp)
    • HFA3925 (IA96) - PA (Power Amp)

The power adapter included with the device is a Sunpower MA15-090 (9V, 1.67A). ID/OD/Len measurements are approximate.

Wi-Fi Certified : W000592 (as of 04/10/2000)

Capab/Config

  • The device supports 40-bit WEP encryption.
  • There is no HTTP interface on these devices.
  • Configuration is meant to be done through SNMP using NWN's configuration software.
