OmniAccess 6000

WIR ELESS LAN SWITC H

The Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess™ 6000 (OAW-6000) Wireless LAN Switch is a high performance, fully featured modular WLAN switch able to aggregate up to 2,048 campus connected access points (APs). The OAW-6000 provides a true user-centric network experience, delivering follow-me connectivity, identity-based access, and application continuity services.

The OAW-6000 offers a scalable design that supports large deployments and can be easily implemented as an overlay without any disruption to the existing wired network.

Advanced voice-over-WLAN features such as Call Admission Control (CAC), voice-aware RF management and strict over-the-air quality of service (QoS) allow the OAW-6000 to deliver mobile VoIP capabilities. The OAW-6000 is managed via the integrat ed manageme nt capability of the Alca tel-Lucent OmniAcce ss Wireless Operating System or the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista™ Mobility Manager.

Secure network environment

A scalable design that supports up to 32,768 users with follow-m e connectivity, identity based access and application continuity

Does not make existing deployments obsolete since it is implemented as an overlay without disturbing the existing wired network

Improves voice quality through support of Call Admission Control, voice-aware RF management and strict over-the-air quality of service (QoS)

Eliminates need for multiple network manage ment applicati ons via OmniAccess Wireless Operating System and OmniVista Mobility Manager

Prevents unauthenticated users and unsafe endpoints from access the corporate wireless netwo rk while safely supporting guest users

Eliminates need for additional VPN/firewall devices

The OAW-6000 offers a best in class, user-centric security framework to authenticate wireless users, enforce role-based access control policies and quarantine unsafe endpoints from accessing the corporate wireless network. Guest users can be easily and safely supported with the built-in captive portal server and advanced network services.

The OAW-6000 can create a secure networking environment without requiring additional VPN/firewall devices using integrated site-to-site VPN and NAT capabilities, split-tunneling and an ICSA-certified stateful firewall. Site-to-site VPN support can be integrated with all leading VPN concentrators to provide seamless integration into existing corporate VPNs.
