Working in conjunction with Symbol's Wireless Switch 2000, the Symbol AP300 Access Port delivers robust and feature rich IEEE 802.11a/b/g connectivity. Each Symbol AP300 supports four BSSIDs (Basic Service Set Identifiers) and 16 ESSIDs (Extended Service Set Identifiers) per radio, while typical access ports only support one. Multiple access ports substantially reduce the cost of deploying, implementing and managing a wireless LAN, while significantly increasing features, functionality and security of the wireless LAN infrastructure.

With Virtual AP, each Access Port can support four separate wireless broadcast domains.. These true wireless VLANs assures that broadcast traffic reaches only those recipients for which it is intended. This reduces overall network traffic, improves network and device performance, and increases the device’s battery life.

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. Support for IEEE standards-based security protocols for strong Encryption (AES, TKIP), Authentication and Key Management (802.1x-EAP), ensuring all information is safely transmitted throughout the servers.

Dual form-factors
Plenum-rated external antenna model with metal housing is ideal for installation above ceiling tiles; the plastic internal-antenna housing allows for installation within the ‘carpeted-space' and provides cost effective coverage via the integrated 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz antennas
Interoperability
Standards-based wireless, wired and security protocols ensure interoperability with third-party hardware
802.1x supplicant
Allows authentication to a RADIUS server to enable an 802.1x-protected Ethernet port
802.11h
Enables worldwide operation through support for standards-based dynamic frequency selection and power control
802.11i
Support for IEEE standards-based security protocols for strong Encryption (AES, TKIP), Authentication and Key Management (802.1x-EAP)
Flexible mounting options
Fast and easy installation with wall, ceiling and above-ceiling tile mounting options; internal antenna version snaps on to T-bars of suspended ceilings without the use of any hardware; external antenna version installs above ceiling tiles
802.3af
Simplifies and reduces total cost of installation through support of standards-based Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
Load Balancing, Pre-Emptive Roaming and Rate Scaling
Increases reliability and resilience of the wireless network to support mission critical applications
