A Point-to-Point Bridge is a wireless networking setup used to connect two locations directly over a distance, often where cabling is impractical. It creates a dedicated link between two network nodes—such as two buildings—allowing them to communicate as if they were on the same local network.

 

Typically, this setup uses two directional antennas (like dish or panel types) facing each other. The devices on each end act as wireless bridges, transmitting and receiving data over radio frequencies (commonly 2.4GHz or 5GHz).

 

Key Benefits:

Extends LAN over long distances (up to several kilometers)

Ideal for connecting offices, warehouses, or surveillance systems

Secure and stable alternative to VPNs for private links

 

Requirements:

Clear line of sight (LOS) between both points

Proper alignment of antennas

Minimal wireless interference

Point-to-point bridging is a cost-effective and scalable solution for long-distance networking in both urban and rural deployments.
