Cisco AIR-LMC352, Aironet 1200 Series, AIR-AP1210, AIR-AP1200 Ordering Manual

Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point

The Cisco Aironet® 1200 Series Access Point (AP) provides the following physical
interface connections:

Description Qty Connection Type

2.4 GHz radio 1 Mini-PCI
5 GHz radio 1 CardBus

2.4 GHz antennas 2 Reverse Polarity-Threaded Naval Connector (RP-TNC)
Ethernet 1 RJ-45
Console 1 RJ-45
Local Power 1 Barrel connector

The mini-PCI interface supports either an 802.11b or 802.11g radio operating in
the 2.4 GHz frequency band.The CardBus interface supports an 802.11a radio
operating in the 5 GHz frequency band. At least one radio must be installed for the
AP to operate in a Wireless LAN, and at most two radios (one of each form factor)
can be installed.

Ordering Guide

The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series may be ordered as follows:

• Configurable: identify the AP platform and then select which radio(s) to be
installed, or

• Preconfigured bundles: AP platform with 802.11a, 802.11b or 802.11g radio
module predetermined by the part number or stock-keeping unit (SKU).

Configurable part numbers for the Cisco Aironet 1200 are only available on the
Global Price List. The configurable option is best for those who are ordering the
product for a specificsingle customer or project. When choosing the “configurable”
option, the AP platform and radio module(s) must be selected. Although the AP
platform and radio module(s) are ordered separately through the configuration tool,
they will arrive fully assembled as a completely functional end product.

Preconfigured bundles are available on both the Global and Wholesale Price Lists.
Preconfigured bundles associate a unique SKU to a predefined product configuration
forAPplatformandradio module. As with the configurable product, a preconfigured
bundle will arrive fully assembled.

Forbothconfigurableproductsand preconfigured bundles, selection of a country power cord is required, and options
for in-line power injector and console cable are available through the configuration tool. For those configurable and
preconfigured bundles based on Cisco IOS, an additional option is available for selecting the software image version.

2.4 GHz antennas are not included with the 802.11b or 802.11g radio modules in either version; they must be
identifiedunder a separate order line item and purchased separately.Note,the802.11aradiomodule is designed with
its antenna integrated to the radio module, and therefore no antenna selection is required or available.

Configuration Options

The following table identifies the Cisco Aironet 1200 configuration options. The choices for power cord and IOS
software image (for the AP1210 platform) are not listed in this table.

Product Description

The following table describes each of the parts identified previously.

Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Platform

The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access point platform is the basic electronic chassis of the AP.When populated with at
least one radio module, the platform then provides the infrastructure for a Wireless LAN.

The platform supports:

• Simultaneous, dual-band operations with interfaces for mini-PCI and CardBus radios

• Dual RP-TNC connectors for external 2.4 GHz antennas (antennas are sold separately)

• 10/100 Auto-Sensing Ethernet uplink

• Powering from Cisco in-line power over Ethernet (CDP) or local power supply

• Console access
The platform ships with a 110-220 VDC local power supply. It is available with either the VxWorks or Cisco IOS

operating systems.
AIR-AP1200 (refer to Note below) VxWorks Operating System
AIR-AP1210 Cisco IOS Operating System
Note: The VxWorks operating system does not support 802.11g. Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Points using the

VxWorks OS must be upgraded to Cisco IOS to support the 802.11g radio module.

Power Injectors

The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point may be powered with the local power supply included with the access
point or by using powering equipment capable of providing Cisco in-line power over Ethernet, such as Cisco Aironet
Power Injectors or Cisco in-line powered switches and routers. The powering equipment must be able to support the
power requirements of the access point, which depend on the product configuration as follows:

802.11a (single radio) 8 watts

802.11b (single radio) 6 watts

802.11g (single radio) 6 watts

802.11a/b/g (dual radio) 11 watts
The Cisco Aironet Power Injectors listed below provide sufficient power for each possible configuration of the access

point.
The power injectors are used in combination with the 110-220 VDC power supply that is shipped with the Cisco

Aironet 1200 Series access point platform and preconfigured bundles.

Regulatory Domains

Regulatory domains are used to distinguish groups of countries that adhere to the same or similar regulations for
radiousage with regards to available channels and transmitpower.CiscoAironetradio products are set at the factory
to allow a particular channel set and maximum transmit power and are reflected in the part number as the single
character following the model number (for example, in AIR-AP1231G-A-K9, the regulatory domain is represented
by “-A-”. Customers must select the correct regulatory domain that corresponds to their particular country when
choosing a radio module for use in their access point or when choosing a preconfigured bundle.

The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access point is certified for use in many countries around the world, but has not been
approved for use in all countries. Please refer to the following URL for current worldwide approval status of the
Cisco Aironet 1200: http://www.cisco.com/go/aironet/compliance

The following table identifies the regulatory domains choices available for the radio modules:

1. That the absence of these regulatory domain designators does not necessarily mean that the product is not certified for use in the listed country.
Instead a different regulatory domain applies for the country. Please check your country compliance and the applicable regulatory domain designator

Antennas

The 2.4 GHz radios for 802.11b and 802.11g support a flexible set of Cisco Aironet omnidirectional and directional
antennas that can be mounted on walls, ceilings or on masts. The 2.4 GHz radio does not come with antennas; the
antennas must be ordered separately. Note that the Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access point is certified for operation
only with Cisco Aironet antennas. To ensure regulatory compliance, select Cisco Aironet antennas for use with the
1200 Series access point.

The 5 GHz radio for the 802.11a is designed with an integrated diversity antenna system. Auxiliary 5 GHz antennas
are not required and are not available. A complete Antenna Reference Guide is available to assist users in selecting
the proper antenna for specific deployment requirements: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps469/
