Cisco Small Business Wireless Access Points

Product Overview

As business applications become more powerful and sophisticated, organizations are

looking for new ways to improve productivity. Mobile computing and communication

devices have become more prevalent, requiring businesses to expand the performance,

security, and reach of their office networks. Delivering secure, high-speed wireless

connectivity with business-class features to employees, partners, and guests anywhere

in the office is critical.

The Cisco Small Business 100, 300 and 500 series wireless access points now support

Single Point Setup controller-less technology. The WAP121 is a simple, affordable

way to improve the performance and reach for your small business network with

advanced 802.11n supporting 2.4 GHz wireless technology. The WAP321 is suitable for

connecting up to 16 users on a single WAP321.

The WAP321 makes it easy to deliver advanced 802.11n, supporting either 2.4 or

5 GHz wireless networking with business-class features, at an affordable price. This

flexible solution is perfect for connecting up to 32 users on a single WAP321.

The WAP551 and WAP561 provide cost-effective selectable or concurrent dual-

radio Wireless-N connectivity for high capacity and support for additional users. This

highly scalable solution lets organizations connect dozens of employees and provides

business-class features.

Single Point Setup

With Single Point Setup deployment is easier and faster. This helps to enable the

wireless LAN to scale up to four WAP121, up to eight WAP321 devices, and up to

16 WAP551 or WAP561 devices in order to provide broader coverage and support

additional users as business needs change and grow.

Cisco Small Business 100, 300 and 500 Series Wireless Access

Points Product Highlights

The primary features and benefits of the WAP121, WAP321, WAP551 and

WAP561 include:

• Access points feature multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology to deliver

superior performance with the fastest speeds possible to expand range and

coverage. With MIMO technology, Cisco wireless access points multiply the effective

data rate and use the inherent signal reflections to provide a reliable wireless

infrastructure throughout the office, including conference rooms, lobbies, lunch

rooms, and quads for improving staff communications and productivity.

• Single Point Setup controller-less technology can enable multi-access point

setup, configuration, management, and expansion from a single access point.

This allows partners and customers to save time and money both in deployment

and troubleshooting costs. Combined with Single Point Setup, web-based GUI

configuration tools and setup wizard make it more intuitive for customers to install

their Cisco wireless access points and set up their network devices. Setting up

a wireless network through one device with a web-based GUI enables remote

management and monitoring in or out of the office.

• To help protect sensitive business communications and data, advanced security

standards, encryption protocols, rogue device detection, and secure guest access

provide robust protection so that Cisco wireless access points offer the same strong

security that exists in wired networks.

• Captive Portal (for WAP321, WAP551, and WAP561) allows secure guest access in

the office with customized login page.

• Optimized SmartSignal Antenna system (for the WAP551 and WAP561) increases

the wireless coverage area in the office.

• Cisco wireless access points can be powered by either AC power or PoE (WAP551

and WAP561 use PoE only). This flexibility provides convenient options to best suit

your facility and reduce network cabling concerns and costs.

• Cisco wireless access points are backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty and are

supported by the Cisco Small Business Support Center as well as the Small Business

Support Community.
