The AP-8100 is an OFDM, MIMO 2x2, 802.11n dual radio access point. One radio operates in the 2.4 GHz spectrum, while the other operates in the 5 GHz spectrum for greater flexibility and interference avoidance and improving maximum throughput. It provides 300 Mbps data rate per radio for an aggregate data rate of 600 Mbps in a single, low-cost product. The AP-8100 product is 802.3af compliant, enabling PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) (IEEE 802.3 af/at) and deployment in areas where power outlets are not available without the need for power injectors. In addition, Proxim’s newest ORiNOCO® access point has a sleek, lightweight, compact design to blend seamlessly into an enterprise environment.

Features

• Cloud based wireless network management: The controller-less AP-8100 can be managed remotely yet securely by ProximVision ES network management software for rapid network deployment, advanced security, mobility, and system-wide visibility
• Up to 8 Virtual AP (VAP) per radio module, with each VAP getting its own SSID and BSSID, multicast rate, security level, QoS level, VLAN ID, and maximum number of associated clients
• 20 and 40 MHz channel support
• Cell size support: artificially change receiver threshold to avoid ambient noise
• WDS (Wireless Distribution System) with optimization mode: allows the creation of an RF point to point link between two access points (including with Proxim’s other ORiNOCO® access points)
• Security feature set including WEP, TKIP and AES encryption based on 802.11i standard with 802.1x Radius based authentication and Local or Radius based MAC address authentication
• Wireless Multimedia Extension based on 802.11e EDCA standard
• Packet Forwarding: forward all wireless packet toward a gateway which is useful in hotspot environment and advance filtering based on MAC address, TCP/UDP port or protocol
