ensures optimal AP coverage and
maximizes the availability and
quality of wireless service across
the enterprise

Product Overview

The AP3865 is a high-performance 802.11a/b/g/n/ac outdoor access point that
extends wireless mobility beyond the brick-and-mortar. The outdoor access point

is designed to operate in harsh environments such as warehouses, manufacturing
plants, parks and stadiums. The AP3865e requires professional installation and
includes six standard N-type antenna connectors with integrated lightning
protection supporting both 2.4G and 5G band antennas. The AP3865e is powered

via 802.3at power-over-Ethernet (PoE+).

The AP3865e supports the latest Wi-Fi technology and IdentiFi features including

802.11ac performance, dynamic radio management, spectrum analysis with
interference classification and avoidance, self-forming and self-healing meshing,

security, role-based authentication, authorization, and access control. The 3x3:3

platform delivers up to 1.75Gbps over-the-air-performance and up to 75,000
packets per second on the wire port. Multiple antenna oerings (e.g., omni, sector,

and panel) ensure that AP3865e deployments can be optimized to meet any

range, coverage or capacity requirement.

• Flexible Client Access optimizes
throughput for 802.11ac/n clients
in today’s mixed ac, n, and a/b/g
client environments

SECURITY

• Authentication and authorization
functions include role-based
access control (using 802.1X,
MAC, and captive portal) and
authentication at the AP

• Wireless Intrusion Prevention
(WIPS) functions provide
continuous scanning, threat
classification, rogue AP detection,
and countermeasures against
possible attacks

• Integration of security policies
(NAC, IPS) across the wired/
wireless network enables quick
diagnosing and resolution of
security threats

• Integration with Policy Manager
across the wired/ wireless
network dynamically controls user
access at the wireless network
point of entry

SUPPORT AND SERVICE

• Industry-leading customer
satisfaction and first call
resolution rates

• Personalized services, including
site surveys, network design,
installation, and training
