Product Overview
As business applications become more powerful and sophisticated, organizations are looking for new ways to
extend the performance and reach of their office networks. Delivering secure, high-speed wireless connectivity to
employees, partners, and guests anywhere in the office is key. The Cisco WAP321 Wireless-N Selectable-Band
Access Point with Single Point Setup makes it easy to deliver advanced 802.11n wireless networking with
business-class features – at an affordable price. This flexible solution is perfect for connecting up to 20 employees
on a single WAP321. With Single Point Setup, the wireless LAN can scale up to a total of eight WAP321 devices
to provide broader coverage and to support additional users as business needs change.
Built specifically for small businesses, the Cisco WAP321 offers selectable-band 802.11n wireless technology
to deliver high throughput and extended range throughout your office. Advanced quality-of-service (QoS) features
let you prioritize traffic to support bandwidth-sensitive applications. This sophisticated control enables you to take
advantage of voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) to place or receive calls over the wireless LAN infrastructure.
Designed for growing organizations, the Cisco WAP321 offers the ability to smoothly scale your network by
bridging wired LANs together wirelessly, to reduce cabling and installation costs. It supports multiple Service Set
Identifiers (SSIDs) to enable you to segregate traffic for different departments, users, and communication devices.
For companies that need to provide secure wireless guest access, the Cisco WAP321 offers captive portal
support that lets you create a wireless hotspot with visitor authentication.
The Cisco WAP321 is simple to set up and use, with intuitive wizard-based configuration to get you up and
running in minutes. A sleek, compact design with flexible mounting options enables the access point to smoothly
blend into any small business environment. Power over Ethernet (PoE) support makes the device easy to install
without the need for separate power plugs or expensive new wiring.
