| orinoco mesh creation protocol | self-forming/self-healing dual-radio wireless mesh backhaul for industry leading throughput and availability |
| tri-mode 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11a support | pre-configured, simultaneous 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11a support |
| field upgradeable | software upgradeable to support new standards |
| ieee 802.11i and aes encryption | highest authentication and encryption methods including mutual authentication, message integrity check {mic}, per-packet keys initialization vector hashing and broadcast key rotation |
| rogue ap and client detection | detects, alerts and stops unauthorized rogue access points and clients in both the 2.4 and 5 ghz bands * |
| secure management interfaces | snmpv3 and ssl protect against unauthorized ap changes via the management interface |
| multiple vlan support with different security settings | up to 16 separate vlans per radio, each able to support multiple different authentication and encryption algorithms simultaneously |
| auto configuration via dhcp | ensures new aps automatically receive correct configuration and prevents security vulnerabilities with deliberate resets |
| assured software upgrades | guarantees new ap configuration file is valid before deleting current image - dual image support |
| quality of service | draft ieee 802.11e along with 802.1p and 802.1q improve performance of video and voice applications |
| high output power | +20 dbm for 802.11b, +18 dbm for 802.11g, 802.11a, and 4.9 ghz |
| transmit power control | supports settable transmit power levels to adjust coverage cell size |
| automatic channel selection | simplifies installation by choosing best possible channel upon installation |
| radius support | extensive radius accounting support, intra-cell blocking to prevent client-to-client snooping, multiple vlan support with different security modes |
| super mode | delivers greater than 30 mbps throughput for orinoco and atheros-based clients while simultaneously compatible with non-atheros clients |
| designed for metro 4.9 ghz & wi-fi | ap-to-ap communication for extension of wireless lan to areas without ethernet wiring {parking lots, long corridors, etc} for 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, and 4.9 ghz public safety |
| advanced filtering capabilities | ieee 802.1d bridging with static mac address filtering, network protocol filtering, proxy arp, multicast/broadcast storm threshold filtering,tcp/udp port filtering, intra-cell traffic filtering, and spanning tree support |
| ieee 802.3af and ac power | decreases installation costs up to $1000 per ap when power over ethernet is available |
| integrated diversity 2.4 and 5 ghz antennas with horizontal and vertical polarization | delivers optimum coverage in any mounting position and excellent performance in high multipath environments |
| external antenna connectors for 802.11b/g, 802.11a, and 4.9 ghz | allows use of shaped and higher gain antennas to design for most efficient ap placement |
| plenum rated | meets safety and insurance requirements when installed in air spaces |
