High Availability and Redundancy Options
The AIR-AP1852I-H-K9 Cisco Aironet 1852I Wireless Access Point (WAP) offers various high availability and redundancy options for improved network reliability and availability. These options include:
- Dual radio support: The WAP supports two radios, enabling it to operate in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands simultaneously. This helps distribute network traffic more evenly and reduce congestion.
- High availability features: The WAP supports a range of high availability features such as Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). These features help ensure that the WAP is always available and the network traffic is routed seamlessly even in the event of a hardware failure or network disruption.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE) support: The WAP supports PoE, which means it can be powered over the Ethernet cable. This allows the WAP to continue functioning even if the power supply to the building is lost.
- Cluster management: The WAP can be managed in clusters, allowing multiple WAPs to be configured and managed as a single entity. This simplifies management and ensures consistent configuration across all the WAPs in the cluster.
- Auto RF: The WAP has a feature called Auto RF, which automatically detects and optimizes radio frequencies and power levels for best performance. This helps reduce interference and improve overall network performance.
