Product overview

Working in unison with HPE controllers, the HPE 802.11n Dual Radio Access Point Series
delivers high-performance networking solutions. The enhanced controller architecture scales
to IEEE 802.11n without requiring a controller replacement. The controller provides advanced
radio resource management (RRM), including client load balancing and interference mitigation.
The HPE wireless controllers support a fast-roaming capability—an important feature,
especially for VoIP communications.

The access points can be used in managed as well as autonomous mode without a controller.
The access points provide RF spectrum analysis with detection and classification of non-IEEE 802.11
interference and have the ability to automatically avoid interference. Wireless security is comprehensive
with integrated Wireless IDS and support for internal and external authentication, authorization,
and accounting (AAA) servers; built-in stateful firewall; per-user VLAN mapping; and authentication.

In addition to working with the HPE MSM controllers, these access points work with the
HPE 10500/7500 20G Unified Wired-WLAN Module, the HPE 800 Series Unified Wired-WLAN
Controllers and Switches, and the HPE WX5002/5004 wireless controllers.

Features and benefits

Management

• Wi-Fi Clear Connect

provides a system-wide approach to improving WLAN reliability by proactively determining
and adjusting to changing RF conditions; helps optimize WLAN performance by detecting
interference from Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi sources using spectrum analysis capabilities built into
the access points, identifying rogue activity and making decisions at a system-wide level

• Advanced radio resource management

– Automatic radio power adjustments

include real-time power adjustments based on changing environmental conditions and
signal coverage adjustment

– Automatic radio channel

provides intelligent channel switching and real-time Interference detection

– Intelligent client load balancing

determines number of clients across neighboring APs and adjusts client allocation to
balance the load

– Airtime fairness

provides equal RF transmission time for wireless clients

• Spectrum analysis

– Power/frequency spectrum analysis

measures noise from IEEE 802.11 remote sources

– Signal detection/classification

identifies source of RF interference, for example, Bluetooth®, cordless phones, and microwave ovens

– Evaluation of channel quality

helps detect severe channel degradation and improve the reporting of poor RF performance

• Integrated IDS

detects and locates unknown and rogue devices (see controller datasheet for details)

• Access point management

provides secure Web browser (SSL and VPN), command-line interface, SNMP v2c, SNMP v3,
MIB-II with traps, and RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC 2618); oers embedded HTML
management tool with secure access (SSL and VPN); implements scheduled configuration
and firmware upgrades from a central controller

• HPE Intelligent Management Center and Wireless Services Manager Software

provides central management for discovery, logging, status, and configuration management

• Diagnostics

records association, authentication, and DHCP events in client event log; packet capture tool
for Ethernet and IEEE 802.11 interfaces (PCAP format); includes data rate matrix

• Enhanced AP survivability

continues to operate using the old IP address while the AP searches for a new controller

• Compatible with HPE WLAN Controllers, HPE Unified Switches and Modules
