Product Overview
In today's dynamic business environment, employees are becoming more mobile and collaborative than ever. To
stay productive, they need dependable, business-class access to network applications throughout the office. The
Cisco Small Business 500 Series Wireless Access Points provide a simple, cost-effective way to extend secure,
high-performance mobile networking to your employees and guests, so they can stay connected anywhere in the
office. This flexible solution lets you connect dozens of employees, and can scale to accommodate additional
users and changing business needs.
The Cisco 500 Series access points use selectable or concurrent dual-band radios for improved coverage and
user capacity. Gigabit Ethernet LAN interfaces with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support flexible installation and
reduce cabling and wiring costs. Intelligent quality-of-service (QoS) features let you prioritize bandwidth-sensitive
traffic for voice over IP (VoIP) and video applications. SmartSignal Antenna technology enables you to extend the
reach of your wireless network by optimizing coverage, reception, and performance.
To provide secure guest access to visitors and other users, the Cisco 500 Series access points support a captive
portal with multiple authentication options and the ability to configure rights, roles, and bandwidth. A customized guest
login page lets you present a welcome message and access details, and reinforces your brand with company logos.
The Cisco 500 Series access points are easy to set up and use, with intuitive wizard-based configuration to get
you up and running in minutes. An attractive design with flexible mounting options enables the access points to
smoothly blend into any small business environment.
To enhance reliability and safeguard sensitive business information, the Cisco 500 Series access points support
both Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Personal and Enterprise, encoding all your wireless transmissions with
powerful encryption. In addition, 802.1X RADIUS authentication helps keep unauthorized users out.
