Introduction
Your WLAN keeps your business moving, empowering your workers to achieve maximum productivity and providing your customers with the high-performance wireless services they expect inside your walls. Yet your wireless LAN is constantly pressured by the steady increase in number of users - and the bandwidth-heavy and latency-sensitive voice and multi-media applications they use. Upgrading to 802.11ac could solve the problem, but cost has been an issue - until today.
Features
THE BANDWIDTH AND APPLICATION PERFORMANCE YOU NEED TO SUPPORT ALL OF
YOUR USERS
- 802.11ac technology builds on advances of 802.11n - the 802.11ac radio
delivers more bandwidth and faster speeds through new technology
advancements such as Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO). 256 QAM
modulation gives the 2X2 MIMO 802.11ac radio an additional performance
boost, and increases the bandwidth of the 802.11n radio to 802.11ac speeds.
In addition, interference from 2.4 GHz devices is finally eliminated. Since
802.11ac operates only in the 5 GHz band, Bluetooth® headsets, microwave
ovens and more will no longer impact Wi-Fi network performance. The result?
Your WLAN can support an unprecedented number of users and applications -
including voice and video - allowing you to confidently deploy Bring Your
Own Device (BYOD) initiatives and empower new workgroups with mobility.
EASY MIGRATION TO 5TH GENERATION 802.11ac WI-FI
- The dual radio AP 7522 provides the simplest path to next generation
Wi-Fi. The 802.11ac radio readies you to support new 5 GHz mobile devices,
while the 802.11n radio ensures support for all existing mobile devices -
including 2.4 GHz clients. The radios work together to allow you to migrate
to 802.11ac at your own pace - and without the high cost of "rip and
replace".
MORE ROBUST WIRELESS CONNECTIONS
- Your users will experience a more robust wireless connection than ever
before, thanks to improved beamforming. Beamforming creates the most
efficient path for data transmission between an access point and a mobile
device. Until today, the transmitting beamformer worked alone to define this
path. Now, the receiver also assists, a process known as sounding. The
result is a stronger connection that enables faster data transmission.
Application throughput and performance is improved, along with mobile device
battery power.
GAP-FREE SECURITY
- The AP 7522 secures all your wireless transmissions, ensuring compliance
with the government or industry regulations your business may be subjected
to, such as PCI in retail and HIPAA in healthcare. Your network is protected
every second of every day with comprehensive integrated security features
that include layer 2-7 stateful packet filtering firewall, AAA RADIUS
services, a VPN gateway and location-based access control.
FLEXIBLE WIPS SENSOR SUPPORT
- You choose how you want to implement sensing to support AirDefense
Network Assurance features. While you can always choose to deploy an AP 7522
as a dedicated sensor, Radio Share and Off-Channel Scan features work
hand-in-hand to allow either or both radios to carry client data and act as
a sensor, providing dual-band sensing without adding cost.
