Introduction
The Harmony Family
The Harmony 802.11a Access Point is a member of a product family that provides a
complete wireless networking solution.
•
The Harmony Access Point Controller Model 7560 centralizes the management,
security, and filtering capabilities of a wireless LAN. The Access Point (AP)
Controller communicates with Harmony Access Points over the Ethernet network
to provide wireless network access for mobile clients. The AP Controller can sup-
port multiple APs, even if each AP complies with a different wireless standard.
•
The Harmony Access Point is a networking bridge that operates at Layer 2 of the
OSI networking model. Operating on its own or in conjunction with a Harmony AP
Controller, the AP forwards packets between its radio and the Ethernet network.
Three types of the Harmony AP are available to support the IEEE 802.11a, IEEE
802.11b, or OpenAir wireless standards: the 802.11a Access Point Models
8569/8570/8571, the 802.11b Access Point Models 8550/8551, and the OpenAir
Access Point Model 7550.
•
The optional Harmony Power System Model 7562 provides DC power to Harmony
APs over the unused pins of a twisted pair Ethernet cable.
The Harmony 802.11a CardBus Card Model 8450 is a wireless LAN adapter that
•
fits into a 32-bit CardBus slot in a laptop computer and complies with the IEEE
802.11a standard.
•
The Harmony PC Card is a wireless LAN adapter that fits into a PCMCIA Type II slot
in a laptop computer. Two models are available to support the IEEE 802.11b
(8430 Series) or OpenAir (7430 Series) wireless standards.
•
The Harmony CompactFlash Card is a wireless LAN adapter that fits into a
CompactFlash slot in a Pocket PC. Two models are available to support the IEEE
802.11b (Model 8630) or OpenAir (Model 7630) wireless standards.

•
expansion slot. Two models are available to support the IEEE 802.11a (Model
