Wireless LANs (WLANS) are an attractive solution for cost-effectively and securely extending mobile access so workers can collaborate, even on high-bandwidth projects involving video or large graphics. Realize the benefits of this freedom with the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 3Com AirConnect 9150 2.4GHz PoE Access Point.
This cost-effective IEEE 802.11n draft 2.0 PoE access point is designed to meet the needs of business of all sizes. It even supports IP telephony, ensuring high-levels of quality of service.
The 3Com AirConnect 9150 single-radio access point has a 2.4 GHz .11n radio allowing it to all IEEE 802.11 2.4 GHz networking standards- .11b, .11g and .11n draft 2.0- so users can connect to the most common wireless networks.
One standard IEEE 802.3af PoE port provides flexible installation options in hard-to-wire locations 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 points through Category 5 or 6 Ethernet cable.
3Com offers one of the most robust suites of standards-based security on the market today. The AirConnect 9150 supports the latest, most effective authentication techniques to thwart intruders and simplify network management. It delivers enterprise-class security to businesses of all sizes by protecting wireless data through the use of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2) with 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption (the latest, toughest standards-based security); WEP encryption is also supported for legacy clients.
To protect against unauthorized network access, the access point supports IEEE 802.1X authentication and authorization through backend RADIUS servers using EAP-TLS, PEAP and EAP-TTLS. MAC address access control and peer-to-peer client restrictions provide further security options.
Other advanced features include support for multiple SSIDs for each group of wireless users, IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, and secure Wireless Distribution System (WDS) bridging.
Multiple antennas and advanced MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology provide enhanced wireless range, reliability and predictability. With 2 x 3 MIMO, the access point supports 2 transmit and 3 receive chains with two spatial streams, making it an ideal configuration for typical WLAN environments.
3Com delivers superior business value by offering enterprise-class features designed with ease-of-use. Access point discovery utility and Web interface simplifies secure setup. Preset defaults make setup and operation easy.
3Com also backs each product with global sales, service and support along with technology, financial and operational strength
