where electrical power is not readily accessible.

Virtual Access Point (VAP)

Segmentation enables up to 8 SSIDs to have dedicated authentication and privacy settings while sharing the same physical infrastructure, providing logical segmentation of secure wireless network traffic and secure customer access.

Broad protocol support

Includes 802.11/a/b/g, WPA2 and WPA, allowing businesses to leverage prior investments in devices that are incapable of supporting higher encryption standards, while easing migration to 802.11n.

Granular security policy enforcement

Allows the implementation of fi rewall rules to all wireless traffic, and controls all wireless client communications to any host on the network—wired or wireless.
