1 Product Orientation and Characteristics

Product Orientation

The AP5010DN-AGN is a standard indoor dual-band 2x2 MIMO access point (AP) that supports

2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands. It complies with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/nsupports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, and has enhanced coverage performance and protection capabilities. It supports wireless bridging, complies with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n,connects a large number of users, and works as a Fit AP. The AP5010DN-AGN has the following advantages:

l High reliability

l High security

l Simple network deployment

l Automatic AC discovery and configuration

l Real-time management and maintenance

The AP5010DN-AGN is recommended for use in buildings with a simple structure, small area, a high density of users, and require a high capacity, for example, small-scale meeting rooms, bars, and entertainment places. The AP5010DN-AGN APs can be flexibly deployed in these places and work in both Fit AP and bridge mode

The AP5010DN-AGN is for use in Fit AP and bridge networking scenarios.
