Ethernet LAN interfaces with Power over Ethernet (PoE) facilitates flexible installation and reduces cabling and
wiring costs. Intelligent quality-of-service (QoS) features let you prioritize bandwidth-sensitive traffic for voice over
IP (VoIP) and video applications.
To provide highly secure guest access to visitors and other users, WAP571 Wireless-AC/N Premium Dual Radio
Access Points support a captive portal with multiple authentication options and the ability to configure rights, roles,
and bandwidth. A customized guest login page lets you present a welcome message and access details, and
reinforces your brand with company logos.
