DATASHEET

LANCOM LW-500

Dual concurrent Wi-Fi with up to 867 Mbps

The LANCOM LW-500 features two Wi-Fi radio modules,

one offering IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2 and the other offering

IEEE 802.11n. This provides fast Wi-Fi to 11n clients in the

2.4 GHz frequency band and also the growing number of

modern 11ac-enabled devices in the 5 GHz band.

Understated smoke-detector design

The white LANCOM LW-500 with integrated antennas has

an unobtrusive and harmonious form. The round design

similar to a smoke detector makes it ideal for unobtrusive

use in hotel lobbies or conference rooms. It blends seamlessly

into any environment.

Modern web interface for stand-alone operation

For stand-alone operation, the intuitive web interface of the

new WEBconfig provides the best overview for

comprehensive management and monitoring. The device is

set up in a moment. Modern dashboards clearly display the

current Wi-Fi status and enable the simple configuration of

individual Wi-Fi networks (SSID) and the associated network

keys. Other options include smart features such as the easy

integration of new clients using QR codes.

Zero-touch deployment

Quick and easy network integration of the LANCOM LW-500

as well as automatic assignment of the configu-

ration—without manual effort. In combination with the

LANCOM Management Cloud, the access point receives the

right configuration immediately after network authentication.

LANCOM security for wireless networks

With numerous integrated security features such as IEEE

802.1X, this access point provides optimal security for

networks. Administrators and employees alike benefit from

professional security policies on the network.

Secure integration of external users

Offer your guests a secure and user-friendly hotspot with

the LANCOM LW-500. Since the access point is operated in

the LANCOM Management Cloud, all you need is any Public

Spot-enabled LANCOM device in your network. As a hotspot

provider, rest assured that your internal network remains

fully isolated from the hotspot.

Operates via the LANCOM Management Cloud

The LANCOM LW-500 offers unsurpassed user-friendliness:

Managed through the LANCOM Management Cloud, it

integrates into a holistic, automated network orchestration

system based on software-defined networking technology.

Flexible power supply

Thanks to the power supply via power over Ethernet as per

IEEE 802.3af, the LANCOM LW-500 operates at any

PoE-powered Ethernet port. Alternatively, the access point

operates with a power supply unit supplied with various plug

adapters (EU, UK, US, AU).
