user experience.
AP1221
AP1222
The high performance 802.11ac AP1220 series supports a maximum concurrent data rate of 2.1 Gb/s
(1733 Mb/s in 5 GHz and 400 Mb/s in 2.4 GHz), 160 MHz channels (VHT160*), multi-user MIMO
(MU-MIMO) and four spatial streams (4SS). They provide simultaneous multicast data transmission
to multiple devices, maximizing data throughput and improving network efciency.
Featuring enhanced WLAN technology with RF Radio Dynamic Adjustment, a distributed control
Wi-Fi architecture, secure network admission control with unied access, built in application intelligence
and analytics, making it ideal for enterprises of all sizes demanding a simple, secure and scalable
wireless solution.
Cloud enabled with OmniVista Cirrus
The AP1220 series APs can be managed by Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® Cirrus cloud platform. OmniVista®
Cirrus powers a secure, resilient and scalable cloud-based network management platform. It offers
hassle free network deployment and easy service rollout with advanced analytics for smarter decision
making. Offers IT friendly Unied Access with secure authentication and policy enforcement for users
and devices.

OmniVista 2500 managed deployment
The AP1220 series APs can be managed by Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® 2500 on premise Network
Management System. The access points are managed as one or more access point (AP) groups (a logical
grouping of one or more access points). The OmniVista 2500 next generation management suite embeds
a visionary controller-less architecture, providing user friendly workows for unied access together
with an integrated unied policy authenticati on manager (UPAM) which helps dene authentication
strategy and policy enforcement for employees, guest management and BYOD devices. The AP1220
series has built-in DPI technology providing real-time Application Monitoring and enforcement. The
network administrator can obtain a comprehensive view of applications running in the network and
apply adequate control to optimize the performance of the network for business critical applications.
OmniVista 2500 provides advanced options for RF management, WIDS/WIPS for intrusion detection
and prevention, and a heat map for WLAN site planning.
Plug and Play: Secure Web managed (HTTPS) cluster deployment
The AP1220 series by default operates in a cluster architecture to provide simplied plug-and-play
deployment. The access point cluster is an autonomous system that consists of a group of OmniAccess
Stellar APs and a virtual controller, which is a selected access point, for cluster management. One AP
cluster supports up to 64 APs.
The access point cluster architecture ensures simplied and quick deployment. Once the rst AP is
congured using the conguration wizard, the remaining APs in the network will come up automatically
with an updated conguration. This ensures the whole network is up and functional within a
few minutes.
The AP1220 series also supports secure zero-touch provisioning with Alcatel- Lucent OXO Connect R2,
a mechanism by which all access points in a cluster will obtain bootstrap data securely from an onpremise OXO Connect.
Integrated guest management
The AP1220 series supports role based management access to the AP cluster which includes Admin,
Viewer and GuestOperator access. GuestOperator access simplies guest account creation and
management, and can be used by any non-IT person such as a front desk worker or receptionist.
The AP1220 series access points also support a built-in customizable captive portal which enables
customers to offer unique guest access.
Quality of service for unied communication apps
The OmniAccess Stellar AP1220 series access points support ne tuned, quality of service (QoS)
parameters to differentiate and provide appropriate QoS for each application such as voice, video
and desktop sharing. Application aware RF scanning avoids interruption of real-time applications.
RF management
Radio Dynamic Adjustment (RDA) technology automatically assigns channels and power settings,
provides DFS/TPC, and ensures that access points stay clear of all radio frequency interference (RFI)
sources to deliver reliable, high-performance wireless LANs. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1220 series APs
can be congured to provide part-time or dedicated air monitoring for spectrum analysis and wireless
intrusion protection.
