Wireless Freedom and Versatility

Take advantage of the freedom of high-

speed networking without wires with the

Wi-Fi-certified 3Com®OfficeConnect®

Wireless 108Mbps 11g PoE Access Point.

WLANs are an attractive solution for cost-

effectively and securely extending mobile

access to wired network resources or

creating full-featured networks in small

and medium businesses, remote sites, or

temporary locations. Each access point (AP)

supports up to 64 wireless users, so there is

plenty of room for growth.

Flexible Installation with Power over

Ethernet (PoE)

PoE support makes it easier than ever to

overcome installation problems by elimi-

nating the need for an AC power plug at

each AP. The 3Com Baseline Switch 2226-

PWR Plus or other 802.3af-compliant PoE

products supply both power and data to

the access points through Category 5 or 6

Ethernet cable, giving you flexible installa-

tion options in hard to wire or reach

locations.

Strong Encryption, Authentication, and

Authorization

3Com delivers enterprise-class security

features to small and medium businesses.

To shield wireless communications at the

source, WPA AES and TKIP encryption

provide the latest, toughest standards-

based security; WEP encryption supports

legacy 802.11b wireless clients. For addi-

tional protection, the access point supports

802.1X and MAC address access control,

authentication, and authorization through

backend RADIUS servers.

Flexible Security and Access Control

You can configure and store up to four

SSIDs with different security profiles for

groups of users. 802.1Q-compliant VLAN

support works with the multiple SSID

feature to control access to network

resources and segment user traffic.

WDS Bridging Capability Solves

Complex Connectivity Problems

The Wireless Distribution System feature

solves complex wireless connectivity prob-

lems. The access point supports both

point-to-point and point-to-multipoint

WDS links as well as repeater and client

bridge modes for flexible network deploy-

ment.

Enterprise-Class Features for Small,

Mid-Sized Businesses

3Com delivers superior business value by

offering enterprise-class solutions without

the complexity. 3Com also backs each

product with global sales, service, and

support along with technology, financial,

and operational strength.

Description

FLEXIBLE HIGH-SPEED CONNECTIVITY

High-speed access and wide coverage 802.11g standard supports speeds up to 108 Mbps in SuperG mode.

Flexible network growth Supports up to 64 users per AP.

Wi-Fi certified 802.11g and WPA compatibility Helps ensure interoperability with Wi-Fi-certified products from other vendors; supports both 11g and 11b users.

ROBUST SECURITY FEATURES

Encryption: WPA, AES, TKIP and WEP Toughest industry-standard algorithms help keep wireless transmissions private.

Multiple security profiles Store up to eight different security settings; up to four security profiles can run at any time.

Multiple SSID support with SSID isolation SSIDs can be bridged together or isolated.

Access control Screens device MAC addresses to ensure that only trusted clients gain access to the WLAN.

802.1Q VLAN support Groups users according to data or traffic requirements to segment traffic flow based on business priorities.

RADIUS server MAC-based and 802.1X AAA support Centralizes wireless security through existing network RADIUS servers.

Rogue AP detection and logging Identifies and logs unauthorized, potentially harmful APs for remedial action.

INSTALLATION AND MANAGEMENT CONVENIENCE

Simple installation No need to drill holes or run Ethernet cabling to set up your network.

WDS bridge and repeater configuration APs function as bridges supporting point-to-point or multipoint modes; repeater mode extends wireless

coverage.

PoE support Expands installation options by eliminating the need for power adapters and AC outlets for APs.

Universal access method (UAM) support Lets you deploy the AP in hot spots or other sites where usage is tracked for billing purposes.

Access Point Discovery program Automatically discovers AP devices to simplify configuration and management.

SNMP support Enables the AP to be centrally managed by popular standards-based network management applications.

Auto configuration Copies settings from compatible APs on the WLAN, simplifying and speeding setup.

Syslog support Enables the AP to be centrally monitored by sending data to the network Syslog server.

Web browser-based administration Familiar browser interface lets you configure and manage APs from anywhere on the network.

Auto firmware update Automatically checks an FTP server for available firmware updates.

FREEDOM TO CHOOSE A BETTER NETWORK

Choose from several

power options to match

your installation needs.

First, the PoE access point

can be powered with the

supplied power adapter.

You can also power the

access point using an

802.3af-compliant PoE

switch. The switch

provides both data and

power through the

Ethernet cable.

The midspan solution distributes power

to the PoE access point over existing switch

connections, seamlessly extending network

connectivity into hard to wire locations.
