    C H A P T E R Overview The Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Outdoor Access Point/Bridge is available in autonomous and lightweight products. The autonomous product can support standalone network configurations with all configuration settings maintained within the unit. The autonomous product can be configured for multiple operating roles such as, access point, bridge, and workgroup bridge.
  • Page 22: Lightweight Access Point

    The lightweight access points contain one integrated radio: a 2.4-GHz radio (IEEE 802.11g). Using a controller, you can configure the radio settings. In the Cisco Centralized Wireless LAN architecture, access points operate in the lightweight mode (as opposed to autonomous mode). The lightweight access points associate to a controller. The controller manages the configuration, firmware, and controls transactions such as 802.1x authentication.
  • Page 23: Key Features

    • The autonomous access point/bridge supports these additional key features: Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) LED patterns for easy antenna alignment • Control using Cisco IOS commands, Internet browser, SNMP, or serial interface • Operating modes: • Root and non-root bridge –...
  • Page 24: Power

    Power The access point/bridge receives inline power from the Cisco Aironet Power Injector (hereafter called the power injector). Dual-coax cables are used to provide Ethernet data and power from the power injector to the access point/bridge. The power injector is an external unit designed for operation in a sheltered environment, such as inside a building or vehicle.
