3COM 3CRWE955275 ACCESS POINT

Reliable, secure, high-speed IEEE 802.11n wireless networking has just been made practical. These innovative and cost-effective Power over Ethernet (PoE) access points - compliant with 802.11n Draft 2.0 - are suitable for businesses of all sizes. This access point is powered using a single, standard IEEE 802.3af PoE connection, eliminating the need for proprietary PoE injectors or bulky and inefficient external power supplies. This access point support the latest, most effective authentication techniques to thwart intruders and simplify network management. Advanced network security with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and IEEE 802.1X authentication protect communication over the wireless LAN and help ensure only authorized users access the network. High-level security and network management include support for multiple SSIDs, IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, and secure WDS bridging. Advanced Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology provides enhanced wireless range. Run in stand-alone mode or with one of 3Com's WX 3000 Series wireless controllers. When working in conjunction with a wireless controller, get all the features that high end enterprise customers are looking for. The wireless controller provides autoconfiguration of channels and power levels, redundancy, quality of service (QoS) in a roaming environment, layer 2/layer 3 roaming and enhanced authentication and security features that surpass those of stand-alone wireless networks. Take advantage of the freedom of high-speed networking without wires with the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 3Com AP9552 access points. Wireless LANs (WLANS) cost-effectively extend secure mobile access to employees, contractors and guests, creating a more flexible environment that supports workgroup collaboration and mobile applications such as wireless VoIP, scanners and other handheld IP technology. The 3Com AP 9552 supports all IEEE 802.11 2.4 and 5 GHz networking standards - 11a, 11b, 11g and 11n Draft 2.0. PoE provides flexible installation options. Powering the APs with standard IEEE 802.3af PoE makes it easier than ever to overcome installation problems by eliminating the need for an AC power plug at each AP. Any 3Com PoE switch or other 802.3af-compliant PoE product supplies both power and data to the access point through the same Category 5 or 6 Ethernet cable, useful and more economical in hard-to-wire locations. 3Com offers one of the most robust suites of standards-based security on the market today.
