SYMBOL AP 300 SR 802.11G ACCESS PORT WITH INTEGRATED ANTENNAS

Working in conjunction with the WS2000 Wireless Switch, the Symbol AP 300 Access Port delivers robust and feature rich IEEE 802.11a/b/g connectivity. With Virtual AP, each Access Port can support four separate wireless broadcast domains-functionality that would otherwise require the installation of four first-generation access points. These true wireless VLANs enable separation of mobile end-users, ensuring that broadcast traffic reaches only those recipients for which it is intended. Overall network traffic is reduced, network and device performance is improved, and device battery life is increased-at a fraction of the cost required to deliver the same functionality in a first generation access point-based network.

Simultaneous service to 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g mobile devices provides high-bandwidth wireless connectivity at speeds of up to 54 Mbps in both the 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz ISM bands. Each AP 300 supports four BSSIDs (Basic Service Set Identifiers) and 16 ESSIDs (Extended Service Set Identifiers) per radio, enabling granular segmentation of the wireless LAN into multiple broadcast domains to meet specific enterprise needs. Typical access points support only one BSSID, utilizing ESSIDs (instead of BSSIDs) to create wireless VLANs.

The AP 300, as all other Symbol Access Ports, requires no configuration or manual firmware maintenance. The Symbol Wireless Switch discovers Access Ports on the network and automatically downloads all configuration parameters and firmware. Installation, maintenance and troubleshooting costs are greatly reduced.
