AP 300 Access Port

More Functionality for a Fraction of the Cost of Access Points

Access Ports are a key component of Symbol Technologies' award winning Wireless Switch System, the second-generation wireless LAN architecture that does more, yet costs less. Working in conjunction with Symbol's Wireless Switch 2000, the AP 300 Access Port delivers robust and feature rich IEEE 802.11a/b/g connectivity. Access Ports substantially reduce the cost of deploying, implementing and managing a wireless LAN, while significantly increasing features, functionality and security of the wireless LAN infrastructure.

Virtual AP Enables True RF Virtual LANs (VLANs) for Better Device and Network Performance

With Virtual AP, each Access Port can support four separate wireless broadcast domains - functionality that would otherwise require the installation of four first-generation access points. These true wireless VLANs enable separation of mobile end-users, ensuring that broadcast traffic reaches only those recipients for which it is intended. Overall network traffic is reduced, network and device performance is improved, and device battery life is increased - at a fraction of the cost required to deliver the same functionality in a first generation access point-based network.

Each AP 300 supports four BSSIDs (Basic Service Set Identifiers) and 16 ESSIDs (Extended Service Set Identifiers) per radio, enabling granular segmentation of the wireless LAN into multiple broadcast domains to meet specific enterprise needs. Typical access points support only one BSSID, utilizing ESSIDs (instead of BSSIDs) to create wireless VLANs.

Dual-radio 802.11a and 802.11g Design

Simultaneous service to 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g mobile devices provides high-bandwidth wireless connectivity at speeds of up to 54 Mbps in both the 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz ISM bands.

Thin AP Design

The AP 300 , as all other Symbol Access Ports, requires no configuration or manual firmware maintenance. The Symbol Wireless Switch discovers Access Ports on the network and automatically downloads all configuration parameters and firmware. Installation, maintenance and troubleshooting costs are greatly reduced.

Feature

Benefit

Dual form-factors

Plenum-rated external antenna model with metal housing is ideal for installation above ceiling tiles; the plastic internal-antenna housing allows for installation within the 'carpeted-space' and provides cost effective coverage via the integrated 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz antennas

Interoperability

Standards-based wireless, wired and security protocols ensure interoperability with third-party hardware

802.1x supplicant

Allows authentication to a RADIUS server to enable an 802.1x-protected Ethernet port

802.11h

Enables worldwide operation through support for standards-based dynamic frequency selection and power control

802.11i

Support for IEEE standards-based security protocols for strong Encryption (AES, TKIP), Authentication and Key Management (802.1x-EAP)

Flexible mounting options

Fast and easy installation with wall, ceiling and above-ceiling tile mounting options; internal antenna version snaps on to T-bars of suspended ceilings without the use of any hardware; external antenna version installs above ceiling tiles

802.3af

Simplifies and reduces total cost of installation through support of standards-based Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)

Load Balancing, Pre-Emptive Roaming and Rate Scaling

Increases reliability and resilience of the wireless network to support mission critical applications
