Model WS-AP3825I Indoor Access Point

UPC

644728005437

Overview

The AP3825 is a high-performance 802.11ac and 802.11abgn indoor access point purpose built for high-density deployments. This access point is designed to operate in heavy-user and mission critical environments such as healthcare facilities, universities, conference centers, arenas, and stadiums. Active data ports and multiple power options ensure that the AP3825 provides always-on connectivity

This high-performance access point is equally adept at serving high-bandwidth video applications as well as low-latency voice applications. The AP3825i comes with an integrated six antenna array for ease of installation. Unique to this class of access point, the power efficient AP3825 uses 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) without reducing its performance nor degrading its enterprise-grade capabilities. An optional external power supply is available for deployments that do not support Power over Ethernet

The AP3825 is built on the newest Wi-Fi technology including 802.11ac, dynamic radio management, and spectrum analysis with interference classification, beam forming, self-forming and self-healing meshing, security, role-based authentication, authorization, and access control. The 3x3:3 platform is capable of delivering 1.75Gbps over-the-air-performance and up to 75,000 packets per second on the wire port. The use of a dual core CPU and a network co-processor for offline frame processing ensures that there are no bottlenecks in the data path when packets are processed  through the slow path from the air-to-the wire

Features

• Business Aligment: Support for demanding voice/video/data applications to enhance mobile worker productivity and convenience; Role-based grouping of users, devices, and applications to deliver priority, QoS, and security in accordance with business needs; Seamless roaming across an entire multisubnet campus without the need for cumbersome client software; Integrated management, security, and QoS features reduce operating cost and ensure a consistent user experience regardless of location
• Operational Efficiency: Centralized visibility and control from NetSight accelerates problem resolution, optimize network utilization, and automate management; Adaptive architecture reduces complexity and optimizes information flow for each application; Dynamic Radio Management when used for planning and monitoring ensures optimal spectrum coverage resulting in the best end-user quality of experience; Flexible Client Access optimizes throughput for 802.11ac/n clients in today’s mixed ac, n, and a/b/g client environments
• Security: Authentication and authorization functions include role-based access control (using 802.1X, MAC, and captive portal) and authentication at the AP; Wireless Intrusion Prevention (WIPS) functions provide continuous scanning, threat classification, rogue AP detection, and countermeasures against possible attacks; Integration of security policies (NAC, IPS) across the wired/wireless networks enables quick diagnosing and resolution of security threats; Integration of Policy Manager across the wired/wireless networks dynamically oversees user access at the wireless network point of entry
• Support and Service: Industry-leading customer satisfaction and first call resolution rates; Personalized services, including site surveys, network design, installation, and training
