The WLA422 Wireless LAN Access Point is a versatile 802.11a/b/g dual-radio indoor access point designed for entry-level installations with moderate performance and coverage requirements. It is simple to deploy, easy to manage, and supports any kind of service, including data, voice, video, and location, over wireless connections.

Features:

• Automatically calculates data integrity and RF signal strength of the wireless channel
• Continuously tunes for optimal RF channel and transmit power
• Dual 802.11a and 802.11b/g radios that can be configured for client or mesh services
• Includes tamper-proof internal dual diversity antennas on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands
• Supports wide range of external antenas for variety of indoor / outdoor applications
• Two 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports and 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
• Can serve as a high-speed mesh access point or mesh portal to extend WLAN coverage
• Supports bridging to interconnect sites over wireless backhaul instead of fiber
• Optimizes RF spectrum utilization when acting in mesh portal mode
• Support for location-based service applications
• Inconspicuous design with built-in lock for additional security

Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) can be configured to ensure optimal QoS for voice traffic. Built-in policies allow per user, protocol, or class-of-service (CoS) mapping.

The WLA422 plays a key role in rogue and intrusion detection as well as denial-of-service (DoS) attack detection. ActiveScan allows it to scan all 802.11 channels while simultaneously providing wireless connectivity to mobile clients. SentryScan allows the WLA422 to act as a dedicated sentry and provide non-stop scanning.
