Motorola AP 650 802.11n Access Point Features
AP 650 802.11n Access Point Features
The AP 650 is a thin multi-purpose access point designed to lower the cost of deploying and operating a secure, reliable 802.11n wireless LAN (WLAN) in branch offices or headquarters facilities. The AP650 combines simultaneous WLAN access and sensing, providing 24x7 wireless security and enabling IT administrators to remotely troubleshooting network performance issues at any location. The AP 650 is designed to optimize network availability through its central and pre-emptive intelligence which dynamically senses weak or failing signals, securely moves mobile users to alternate APs, and boosts signal power to ensure uninterrupted access. Common problems, often seen with other products on the market such as building attenuation, electronic interference or sub-optimal access point placement are minimized, as SMART RF automatically optimizes power and channel selection allowing users high-quality wireless access and mobility.
Full 802.11n performance with standard 802.3af
Simplifies and reduces total cost of installation using standard Power-over-Ethernet (PoE).
Multiband Operation
Allows concurrent sensing on 2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz frequency bands for multi-band intrusion protection or troubleshooting.
2x3 MIMO radio
High throughput MIMO technology with extended range capabilities.
Mobility
Supports fast, secure roaming
Security
This unique multi-purpose device can execute and enforce the IDS/IPS security policies configured in the Motorola wireless switch, and can also be utilized as a 24x7 dedicated sensor with Wireless IPS from Motorola AirDefense solutions.
Application Support
Supports WMM-UAPSD and SIP Call Admission Control, for optimized VoWLAN performance, as well as video streaming and data throughput for 802.11 a/b/g/n clients.
Load balancing, pre-emptiveroaming and rate scaling
Increases reliability and resilience of the wireless network to support mission critical applications.
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.
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.
Device mobility
Supports fast, secure roaming at Layer 2 and Layer 3. In addition, the network optimizes mobile performance with load balancing, pre-emptive roaming and rate scaling.
Greater Coverage per AP
The powerful 24 dBm radio increases coverage, performance and obstruction penetration versus 23 dBm radios. In addition, receiver sensitivity has been increased proportionally so users have an increased ability to maintain high-performance access through thick doors and walls to users even while on-the-move. In addition, the AP650’s 2 x 3 MIMO design ensures premium transmit and receive communications.
Voice, Locationing, Hotspots, Guest Access
Out-of-the-box, the AP650 supports voice over wireless LAN (VoWLAN) services, such as QoS, which ensures toll-quality even with many simultaneous VoWLAN calls on a single access point. Locationing services over 802.11 provide the ability to locate and track people or assets, and even to control access to the network or applications. In addition, its easy to provide hotspot and guest access and assure the user can only access authorized networks, sites,or applications.
