Product description
The dual-radio dual-band WA2620 access point operates simultaneously on both bands. All of the APs support IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n, and offer data rates up to 300 Mbps when using the 802.11n standard.
Product features
- Centralized access point management
If the WA2600 series access point is used with an AC, most of management and data frames are processed by the AC; the AC controls all fit APs by using the AP-AC tunnel protocol so that the status of all devices can be clearly known; compared to a traditional fat AP, a fit AP and an AC greatly help system administrators manage the whole network. - Automatic access point version upgrades
The WA2600 access points can automatically communicate with the AC in a network, as well as download the latest software versions to the access point; such operations do not require manual intervention, and therefore reduce network maintenance; this feature is especially important to large-sized networks. - Connectivity Auto Channel Select (ACS)
Connectivity Auto Channel Select (ACS) helps reduce radio co-channel interference by automatically selecting an unoccupied radio channel. - IEEE 802.11h International Telecommunication Union (ITU) compliant
Employs Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) to automatically select another channel and adjust transmit power to reduce interference with systems such as radar, if detected on that same channel. - High throughput
The WA2600 wireless APs are compatible with IEEE 802.11n standard; the single-radio APs support wireless access rates as much as 300 Mbps, which is six times more than that of the traditional IEEE 802.11 a/b/g products. - QoS and Multimedia
IEEE 802.11e Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) wireless QoS standard - when combined with wired QoS policies - provides end-to-end QoS, delivering different wireless channel competitiveness for different services. - Secure user isolation
Virtual AP services enable the network administrator to provide specific services for different user groups, improving bandwidth and system resources, and simplifying network maintenance and management. - Secure access by location
Location AP-based user access control helps ensure that wireless users can access and authenticate only to preselected APs, enabling system administrators to control the locations where a wireless user can access the network. - Endpoint Admission Defense
Integrated wired and wireless Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) helps ensure that only wireless clients who comply with mandated enterprise security policies can access the network, reducing threat levels by infected wireless clients and improving the overall security of the wireless network. - WPA2
The toughest standards-based security - with Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption, Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), and Wired Equivalency Protocol (WEP) for legacy clients - protects the network from unauthorized user access.
