Access Points

Introduction

Provide Fast, Reliable Connectivity

Cisco Aironet access points connect Wi-Fi devices to networks in a variety of wireless environments. Cisco Next-Generation Wireless solutions use 802.11n technology to deliver unprecedented reliability and up to nine times the throughput of 802.11a/b/g networks.

These access points support comprehensive connectivity for both indoor and outdoor environments, and are Wi-Fi certified for interoperability with a variety of client devices. Certain access points may be configured to support the OfficeExtend solution for secure mobile teleworking or Enterprise Wireless Mesh to extend connectivity for hard-to-wire environments.

More Security and Control

Lightweight access points operate with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers to address the security, deployment, management, and control issues facing large-scale enterprise WLANs. Standalone access points are ideal for simple overlay networks.

As primary elements of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, Aironet access points offer comprehensive capabilities, including:

  • Wireless voice over IP (VOIP)
  • Guest access
  • Wireless intrusion detection and intrusion prevention
  • Scalable Layer 3 roaming
  • Location services
