Symbol AP200 Access Point

Feature

Benefit

Tight integration with the WS 5000 and WS2000 Wireless Switch, which centralizes intelligence to the Access Ports

Enables easy addition of features and functionality; ability to expand the wireless LAN without disrupting wireless service

Compact, aesthetic design with flexible mounting options

Enables mounting on a desk, on a wall and on the ceiling—above or below ceiling tiles

Plenum rated housing

Meets fire retardant standards to ensure safe installation in ceilings and other enclosed areas throughout your enterprise

Tamper-proof hardware and software design

Prevents theft of network configuration parameters, without sacrificing flexibility of mounting, even in unsecured areas

Standards-based 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet compatibility

Significantly reduces installation cost and complexity by eliminating the requirement to extend AC or DC power to the Access Port

No configuration required

True plug-and-play right out of the box

Internal and external high power antennas; Integrated 3.5 dBi omni-directional cross polarized diversity antenna or external antenna connectors and suite of 16 antennae

Reduces cost and time of installation; provides the flexibility to modify wireless coverage patterns and increase wireless range as needed in challenging environments

Visible status LED color-coded to IEEE specification. Blue for 802.11b, Amber for 802.11a

Easy viewing of Access Port status — even when mounted above the ceiling tiles

No local firmware to manage (provided by the WS 5000 or WS 2000 Wireless Switch)

Eliminates the cumbersome, time consuming and error prone process of loading traditional access point firmware

Centralized wireless LAN packet processing offloaded to the Symbol's WS 5000 Wireless Switch

Leaner product design, resulting in significant reduction in hardware and management costs; provides a scalable growth model

Multi-BSS and Multi-ESS capability

Ensures highly efficient use of the wireless network by providing multiple Broadcast/Multicast Domains and a true Virtual RF LAN experience

Two built-in Ethernet ports
(in AP 200)

Enables connection or ‘daisy-chaining' of additional Access Ports; reduces cost of extra cabling when upgrading an existing 802.11b Wireless LAN infrastructure

Omni-Directional Antennas
Omni-directional antennas radiate coverage equally in all directions in a 360° coverage pattern on a horizontal plane. The torus-shaped (doughnut-shaped) coverage pattern is ideal for square or fairly square areas.

802.11b

802.11a

• High Performance Fixed Point Dipole 3.5 dBi
• Indoor/Outdoor High Performance OD 5dBi
• Low Profile Ceiling/Surface Mount OD 3 dBi, 4' Coax
• Low Profile Dual Integrated Diversity OD 2dBi, 3' Coax
• PCI Wall and Desk Mount OD Diversity Antenna

• 5.2 GHz High-Performance Fixed Point Dipole
• 5.2 GHz High-Performance Omni-Directional

Directional Antennas
Directional antennas concentrate transmission power in a specific direction, resulting in coverage for a greater distance, but at a lesser angle. The conical-shaped coverage pattern of the directional antenna is similar to that of a flashlight—ideal for elongated areas, corners and outdoor point-to-point applications.

• High Gain Indoor/Outdoor 60° H-Plane Directional Panel 12 dBi
• High gain Indoor/Outdoor 120° H-Plane Directional Panel 11 dBi

• 5.2 GHz High-Performance Flat Panel

Bridge Antennas
Bridge antennas deliver effective long-distance transmission, ideal for communications between two buildings or in a multi-building campus-style environment. Bridge antennas are available in directional and omni-directional, for point-to-point and point-to-multi-point implementations.
