802.11n MultiService Access Point
- MAP-625 now shipping
- Industry's 1st intelligent, enterprise-class 802.11n access point
- Featuring Always-n technology
- Dual radio, n + a/b/g, ensures legacy devices won't compromise n-speeds
- Smooth, cost-effective 802.11n migration
- 802.11n consumes no additional capacity in Wireless controllers
- Comprehensive feature set - just as all other Wireless MAPs
- QoS, security enforcement, plug & play, Local Mesh, virtual service communities, controlled & autonomous modes, etc.
- Benefit: provides all the features required in a robust, enterprise network
- Dual radios
- 802.11n + 802.11a/b/g
- 802.11n provides signaling rate of 300 Mbps, throughput up to 150 Mbps
- Benefit: Offers multiple deployment choices
- Antennas
- Embedded 802.11n antennas based on 3x3 MIMO technology (If desired, external antennas may be purchased and used)
- Benefit: Flaps can be adjusted to optimize reception
- WiFi Alliance 802.11n draft 2 certified
- Benefit: Mitigates compatibility and investment risks
- 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
- Powered by a 802.3af PoE switch or PoE power injector at full 3X3 MIMO operation and within the standard's stated power budget
- Benefit: No need to overhaul existing PoE infrastructure!
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Auto-sensing 10/100/1000 Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector
- Benefit: Ensures full wired/wireless throughput
- Plenum-rated for indoor operation
- Benefit: Can be safely deployed in any enterprise
- Kensington cable lock
- Benefit: Provides physical security
- K802.11n will change the way customers use wireless
- More users and a diverse set of applications, including bandwidth-intensive, e.g., video-conferencing, CAD/CAM, medical imaging
- Wireless will become a pervasive, fundamental component of enterprise networking, expected to replace Ethernet as end-user network access over time
- Ensures peak 802.11n performance
- 802.11n radio delivers business-critical applications up to 150 Mbps
- 802.11a/b/g radio ensures a/b/g clients do not compromise n-speeds
- Cost-effective
- Costs 22-33% less than competitors
- No need to pay a premium for second 'n' radio when most environments need second radio for legacy b/g clients
- Especially useful long-term for customers with a/b/g VoIP phones (n-based handsets are years away)
- Unparalleled investment protection and lowest TCO
- Lowest 802.11n TCO
- MAP-625 is 23-33% less expensive than competitors
- Wireless controllers support the most 802.11n APs (to support the same number, competitors require b/g clients multiple controllers)
- Lowest upgrade costs when moving from a/b/g to 'n'
- Wireless: supports 802.11n's 500% increase in wireless traffic with a 0% increase in controller capacity
- Competitors: support a 500% increase in wireless traffic only with a 500% increase in controller capacity
- No PoE upgrades (with full 3x3 MIMO operation)
- Best use of WLAN and LAN infrastructure
- Wireless: Minimal traffic processed by controller; controller consumes only 1 port on core LAN switch; traffic hits core LAN 2X round trip
- Competitors: All traffic passes through controller; controller consumes multiple core LAN switches; all traffic hits core LAN 4X round trip
