ExtremeWireless™ WiNG 8533 Wave 2 Access Point

True 802.11ac Access Point with Eight Times the Capacity and Triple the Sensors

EXPANDED CAPABILITIES

802.11 WIRELESS SENSOR FOR GAP-FREE SECURITY

Trust the AP 8533 to deliver best-in-class

PCI compliance and security with Extreme AirDefense*. Unlike other sensors that scan only part time, this dedicated, dual-band

802.11ac sensor scans for rogue devices full time, eliminating the risk of being blindsided by them. Once a threat is detected, it is checked with an extensive security and network vulnerability signature database to proactively safeguard your network.

TWO-IN-ONE BLUETOOTH® SENSOR

For Security and Location Services: Monitor BT2.0 devices in the environment using the AP 8533 and ADSP Security Appliance. Map BT2.0 devices, and analyze for potential security threats.

COMMUNICATE WITH EVERY CUSTOMER

Due to its ubiquitous nature, Bluetooth is an excellent means to engage customers. The AP

8533 supports Apple iBeacon™ to communicate with a loyalty app on a customer’s smartphone.

Using Google Eddystone™, enterprises can send advertisements directly to shoppers, guests, and conference attendees, even without a loyalty app pre-installed. This makes it ideal for businesses

to advertise their app-download pages, captive portals, or site-speciﬁc information.

RF SPECTRUM SENSOR

Maximize performance and visibility without compromise. Using the dedicated full-time RF spectrum sensor, you can monitor and identify RF

interference without slowing down throughput on

the data radios.

Product Overview

Ever-increasing demand to support more mobile devices and applications, as well as customer engagement, redeﬁnes the network year after year. Jump to the front of the line with the new ExtremeWireless WiNG AP 8533. This innovative access point features true 802.11ac Wave 2 capabilities and Extreme Triple Sensor technology to support your growing business and customer needs. Personalize the shopping experience with Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) beacons, secure the network from existing and new threat vectors, and deepen network visibility of applications running over your wireless LAN. With AP 8533’s advanced capabilities, you can prevent “upgrade fatigue."

HIGH-DENSITY NETWORK

Our true 802.11ac Wave 2 access point, along with the high-density optimization in ExtremeWireless WiNG 5, maximizes the value of MU-MIMO. The AP 8533 supports hundreds of wireless clients and concurrent transmissions critical for any enterprise.

UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE

Using the Integrated Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine, along with the Extreme NSight™ Platform*, the AP 8533 tirelessly optimizes the network to extract every bit from the airwaves. From RF errors to key performance indicators, the AP 8533 collects data to measure, monitor, and secure application performance. Thanks to its intelligent distributed architecture—ExtremeWireless WiNG 5—it can proactively adjust to deliver the fastest, most reliable experience.
