WIRELESS

DATA SHEET

OVERVIEW

Reliable, secure, high-speed IEEE 802.11n wireless

networking has just been made practical. These

innovative and cost-effective Power over Ethernet

(PoE) access points—compliant with 802.11n Draft

2.0— are suitable for businesses of all sizes and are

available in two configurations:

› the 3Com®AP9552 dual-radio access point has both

2.4 and 5 GHz 802.11n radios allowing it to support

simultaneous 2.4 GHz 11b/g/n and 5 GHz 11a/n wire-

less connections

This access point is powered using a single, standard

IEEE 802.3af PoE connection, eliminating the need for

proprietary PoE injectors or bulky and inefficient

external power supplies.

This access point support the latest, most effective

authentication techniques to thwart intruders and

simplify network management. Advanced network

security with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2™),

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and IEEE 802.1X

authentication protect communication over the

wireless LAN and help ensure only authorized users

access the network.

High-level security and network management include

support for multiple SSIDs, IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, and

secure WDS bridging.

Advanced Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO)

technology provides enhanced wireless range.

Run in stand-alone mode or with one of 3Com's WX

3000 Series wireless controllers. When working in

conjunction with a wireless controller, get all the

features that high end enterprise customers are

looking for. The wireless controller provides auto-

configuration of channels and power levels,

redundancy, quality of service (QoS) in a roaming

environment, layer 2/layer 3 roaming and enhanced

authentication and security features that surpass

those of stand-alone wireless networks.

KEY BENEFITS

ENABLING WIRELESS FREEDOM

Take advantage of the freedom of high-speed

networking without wires with the Wi-Fi®CERTIFIED™

3Com AP9552 access points. Wireless LANs (WLANS)

cost-effectively extend secure mobile access to

employees, contractors and guests, creating a more

flexible environment that supports workgroup

collaboration and mobile applications such as wireless

VoIP, scanners and other handheld IP technology.

SUPPORTS COMPLETE IEEE 802.11 STANDARDS

The 3Com AP 9552 supports all IEEE 802.11 2.4 and

5 GHz networking standards—11a, 11b, 11g and 11n

Draft 2.0.

3COM AP9552 11N

2.4+5GHZ PoE

ACCESS POINT

Secure and reliable, high-speed 11n wireless

connectivity in a cost-effective PoE access

point with advanced business-class features

PROVIDES DEPLOYMENT FLEXIBILITY WITH

POWER PROVISIONING OPTIONS

PoE provides flexible installation options. Powering

the APs with standard IEEE 802.3af PoE makes it

easier than ever to overcome installation problems by

eliminating the need for an AC power plug at each AP.

Any 3Com PoE switch or other 802.3af-compliant PoE

product supplies both power and data to the access

point through the same Category 5 or 6 Ethernet

cable, useful and more economical in hard-to-wire

locations.

SECURES AND PROTECTS WIRELESS

COMMUNICATIONS

3Com offers one of the most robust suites of

standards-based security on the market today. To

protect wireless data, WPA2 with 128-bit AES

encryption provides the latest, toughest standards-

based security; WEP encryption is also supported for

legacy clients.

To protect against unauthorized network access, the

access points support IEEE 802.1X authentication and

authorization through backend RADIUS servers using

EAP-TLS, PEAP and EAP-TTLS. MAC address access

control and peer-to-peer client restrictions provide

further security options.

PROVIDES SECURE ACCESS CONTROL

Configure up to four SSIDs per radio with different

security profiles for different groups of users. IEEE

802.1Q-compliant VLAN support works with the

multiple SSID feature to protect company confidential

files from those who should not have access, such as

guest workers.

SOLVES COMPLEX CONNECTIVITY PROBLEMS

Wireless Distribution System (WDS) bridging solves

complex wireless connectivity problems. The access

point supports both point-to-point and point-to-

multipoint WDS links for flexible network deployment

across floors or between nearby buildings.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILE

Desktop or notebook users can wirelessly access

network resources and applications at 802.11n Draft

2.0 speeds, ideal for multimedia applications. A host of

features and MIMO technology ensure reliable wireless

connectivity and excellent range and throughput. Wi-Fi

certification helps ensure interoperability with other

vendors.

3Com backs each product with global sales, service

and support along with technology, financial and

operational strength.

SIMPLIFIED SET UP; USE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX

Setup and operation are designed for easy

deployment. In addition to SSID and VLAN

configuration flexibility, the AP discovery utility and

Web interface simplify secure setup. Preset defaults

get you up and running quickly.

BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY

The AP 9552 is compatible with existing IEEE 802.11a, b

and g networks.
