Flexible Deployment with PoE
By eliminating the needs of AC power adapters, the Power over Ethernet support of NWA1100 makes it
easier than ever for users to overcome installation difficulties. ZyXEL's PoE switch models or other 802.3af
standard-based PoE devices can transmit power and data to the Access Point simultaneously through
CAT-5 Ethernet cables for flexible installation options at hard-to-wire locations.
Suburb Coverage for Large-Scale Deployments

certified ZyXEL NWD1100 11b/g PoE Access Point. The Access Point is also featuring high power 2.4GHz,
802.11b/g RF capability. With high performance radio, Wi-Fi coverage could be expanded and so less
Access Points are required.
Enterprise class security
ZyXEL NWA1100 delivers enterprise-class security features to small businesses. To shield wireless
communication at the source, WPA2 with AES encryption provides the latest, toughest standards-based
security, while WEP encryption supports legacy wireless clients. Additionally, Wi-Fi certified WPA2 ensures
compatibility with all Wi-Fi certified wireless clients.
Options for Network Management
Network administrators can manage all the setting via Telnet or the comprehensive Web-based
configuration utility; for advanced network management, SNMPv3 is also supported to configure multiple
access points from a single location. With these features, NWA1100 provides everything needed to easily
set up or to extend a wireless network in workplaces.
