ALCATELLUCENT OMNIACCESS
200 SERIES ACCESS POINTS

BRINGING 802.11AC TO THE MASSES

Multifunctional and affordable OmniAccesss 200 series 802.11ac wireless access points (APs)
maximize mobile device performance in medium-density enterprise Wi-Fi environments.

These compact and cost-effective dual­radio APs deliver wireless data rates of
up to 867 Mb/s to 5 GHz devices with

802.11ac technology, leveraging two
spatial multiple-input and multiple-output
(MIMO) streams while simultaneously
supporting 2.4 GHz 802.11n clients with
data rates of up to 300 Mb/s.

The AP205 and IAP205 models feature
four integrated omnidirectional downtilt
antennas, while the AP204 and IAP204
support external detachable dual-band
antennas using two RP-SMA antenna
connectors.

The 200 series APs enhances unied
access portfolio for the mobile enterprise
that is able to deliver applications and
services along with consistent, high­quality user experience across wired and
wireless environments.

The unied access network starts with
a wire-rate 10GbE/40GbE network core.
The core includes the Alcatel-Lucent
OmniSwitch™ 6900 Stackable LAN Switch,
OmniSwitch 9000E Chassis LAN Switch,
and the OmniSwitch 10K Modular LAN
Chassis. The unied access network pro­vides a common set of network services,
policy framework, authentication scheme
and a single authentication database that
applies to users accessing the network
with either wired or wireless devices.
Wire line access is provided by stackable
LAN switches like the Alcatel-Lucent
OmniSwitch 6855 Hardened LAN Switch,
OmniSwitch 6850E and OmniSwitch 6450
Stackable LAN Switches and OmniSwitch
6250 Stackable Fast Ethernet Switch;
wireless access is provided by compre­hensive portfolio of 802.11ac, 802.11n
OmniAccess™ Wi-Fi access points and
Controllers; while BYOD, guest access,
onboarding and policy management
services are provided by ClearPass Policy
Management System.

The 200 series APs offer a choice of
operating modes to meet individual man­agement and deployment requirements.

• Controller-managed AP or Remote AP
(R AP) running AOS-W. When managed
by OmniAccess Mobility Controllers, 200
series APs offer centralized conguration,
data encryption, policy enforcement and
network services, as well as distributed
and centralized trafc forwarding.

• Alcatel-Lucent Instant AP running
InstantOS. In Instant mode, a single AP
automatically distributes the network
conguration to other Instant APs in the

WLAN. Simply power-up an Instant AP,
congure it over the air, and plug in the
other APs – the entire process takes about
ve minutes.

If WLAN requirements change, a built-in
migration path allows 200 series Instant
APs to become part of a WLAN managed
by a Mobility Controller.

FEATURES

• ClientMatch dynamically optimizes
Wi-Fi client perfor mance as users roam
and RF conditions change.

• Remote spectrum analysis to identify
sources of RF interference

• Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)

• The 200 series APs support priority
handling and policy enforcement for
unied communication apps, including
Microsoft® Lync™ with encrypted
videoconferencing, voice, chat and
desktop sharing.

BENEFITS

• ACC feature enables Alcatel-Lucent

WLANs to perform at peak efciency
by minimizing interference with
3G/4G networks.

• Quality of service for unied

communication apps
