The W-AP105 features two 2x2 MIMO dual-band 2.4-GHz/5-GHz
radios with two internal omni-directional antennas. With ceiling
and wall-mounting options, the AP105 is built to provide years of
trouble-free operation and is backed by a one-year warranty.
Working with Dell's line of centralized PowerConnect W Series
Controllers, the W-AP105 delivers secure, high-speed wireless
network services for user mobility that works seamlessly within
enterprise, branch and campus network deployments.
802.11n enables the use of wireless as a primary connection with
speed and reliability comparable to a wired LAN. It also increases
performance by utilizing techniques such as channel bonding,
block acknowledgement and MIMO radios. Advanced antenna
technology also increases range and reliability.
Key to ensuring wire-like performance and reliability is Dell's
unique Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) capability, which
manages the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radio bands to deliver maximum
client performance. ARM enables mixed 802.11a, b. g and n
clients to interoperate at the highest performance levels via band
steering, airtime fairness between clients and mitigating channel
interference between APs.
The multifunction W-AP105 can be configured through the
controller to provide wireless LAN (WLAN) access with part-time
air monitoring, dedicated air monitoring for wireless intrusion
protection, Remote AP (RAP) functionality or secure enterprise
™ W-AP105 is an affordable mesh. The W-AP105 features a 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet
interface and can operate from standard 802.3af power-over-
Dell PowerConnect
Ethernet (PoE) or a 12-volt DC power supply.
