1 Introduction

Designed for extending network coverage to outside areas, the AP-7562 brings the latest 802.11ac 3x3:3 Multiple
Input Multiple Output (MIMO) dual radio design together with rugged outdoor performance. The AP-7562 is a
3x3:3 802.11ac Access Point utilizing one 2.4 GHz 802.11n radio and one 5 GHz 802.11ac radio. The AP-7562 is
optimized with WiNG intelligence, extending QoS, security, and mobility services to the Access Point to support
better capacity and performance.
Deployments can be managed using WiNG architecture. WiNG architecture leverages the best aspects of
independent and dependent architectures to create a smart network that meets the connectivity, quality, and
security needs of each user and their applications based on the availability of network resources, including wired
networks.
Once adopted by a WLAN or Integrated Services Controller running WiNG firmware, the AP-7562 is managed as
an Adaptive AP, running the WiNG network management protocol. WiNG networks extend the current
differentiation that Adaptive APs offered to the next level by now having the services and security available at
every point in the network. The traffic flow is optimized to prevent wired congestion. Traffic flows dynamically,
based on user and application, and finds alternate routes to work around any possible network choke points.
Mixed-media application optimization is the hallmark of WiNG 5 networks.
