Key Features of Wireless Access Points
The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point is a high-performance wireless access point that offers a range of key features to ensure optimal performance, reliability, and security. Some of the key features of the AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 include:
- Dual-band radios: The access point supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios, which allows for greater flexibility in network design and supports a range of devices that may operate on different frequencies.
- Multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology: The access point supports MIMO technology, which enhances performance by using multiple antennas to send and receive signals, reducing signal degradation and increasing throughput.
- High data transfer rates: The access point supports data transfer rates of up to 450 Mbps on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, providing high-speed connectivity for a range of applications.
- Scalability: The access point can be deployed in both small and large-scale environments, allowing for flexibility and growth as business needs change.
- Advanced security features: The access point supports a range of advanced security features, including 802.1X authentication, Wi-Fi Protected Access II (WPA2), and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption, ensuring that data transmissions are secure and protected from unauthorized access.
- Multiple deployment options: The access point can be deployed in a range of environments, including standalone mode, mesh mode, and controller-based mode, allowing for flexible deployment and management options.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE) support: The access point supports PoE, allowing for easy installation and setup, without the need for additional power supplies.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) Considerations
The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), which allows it to receive power and data through a single Ethernet cable. This feature is particularly useful when deploying wireless access points in hard-to-reach areas or where power outlets are not available.
When considering PoE for the AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9, it is important to keep in mind the following:
- PoE Standard: The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 supports PoE+ (802.3at) standard, which provides up to 30 watts of power per port. It is essential to ensure that the network switch or injector supplying the PoE also supports this standard to avoid any compatibility issues.
- Power Consumption: The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 has a maximum power consumption of 15.4 watts. It is essential to ensure that the network switch or injector providing the PoE can deliver sufficient power to meet the device’s requirements.
- Cable Length: The maximum cable length for PoE is 100 meters. It is essential to ensure that the cable length does not exceed this limit to avoid power loss and performance issues.
- Power Supply Backup: When using PoE, it is critical to consider backup power supply options, such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), to ensure that the device remains operational during power outages or other emergencies.
- Network Management: When deploying multiple wireless access points, it is essential to have a robust network management system in place to monitor power usage and prevent power overloading.
High Availability and Redundancy Options
The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point provides high availability and redundancy options for ensuring maximum uptime and reducing the risk of network downtime.
One of the primary features of the AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point is its support for dual-band radios, which provide both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands. This dual-band feature enables the access point to work with more devices and offer better network performance. In addition, it provides redundancy by allowing devices to switch to a different frequency band in case of interference or congestion.
Another high availability and redundancy feature of the AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point is its support for mesh networking. With mesh networking, multiple access points can be deployed throughout the network, providing redundant coverage and seamless handoff for devices as they move throughout the network. If one access point goes offline, devices can easily connect to another access point to maintain connectivity.
The AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point also supports Cisco’s High Availability (HA) feature, which ensures that the access point can continue to function in the event of a hardware failure or other issue. HA works by allowing multiple access points to be connected together in a cluster, with each access point configured as a backup for the others. If one access point fails, another can take over its duties without any disruption to the network.
Finally, the AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9 Cisco Aironet 3602I Wireless Access Point supports various redundancy protocols, such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), to ensure that the network can continue to operate in the event of a link or switch failure. These protocols work by identifying alternate paths in the network and rerouting traffic to those paths in case of a failure.
