The LANCOM L-54ag Wireless is an access point that offers maximum WLAN performance, security and reliability. As well as supporting the 108-Mbps standard IEEE 802.11g, the
LANCOM L-54ag Wireless is also compatible to the widespread IEEE 802.11b standard, so offering maximum flexibility in the office or for network coupling.
Alternatively, this access point can be operated at up to 108 Mbps with the IEEE 802.11a/h standard in the 5 GHz frequency range. This technology makes the LANCOM L-54ag
ideal as the backbone for cost-effective, high- bandwidth transmission that is free of interference and highly secure.
In combination with the LANCOM Public Spot Option, the access point is also ideal for setting up hotspots—wireless Internet access services—for example in hotels, restaurants,
cafés, airports, railway stations, universities, or at trade fairs.
More Security.
LANCOM sets the standards in WLAN security. A comprehensive range of security technologies is supported in wireless LAN including IEEE 802.11i, 802.1x, WPA, WPA2, WEP64/
128/152, access control lists or LEPS (LANCOM Enhanced Passphrase Security), which enables the configuration of an optimized solution, whatever the individual requirements.
For example, Multi SSID allows the definition of up to 8 user groups, each with its own level of security.
More Management.
LANCOM developments are focused on performance, security and on management, too. LANCOM's WLAN Controllers offer real benefits to network administrators for the
installation, control and monitoring of access points. Settings for wireless, encryption, or access-control lists can be grouped into device configurations, which are then executed
for multiple access points in one easy move. Access points are commissioned and RF optimization carried out automatically. Changes are transmitted to all of the devices
automatically and subsequently monitored. WLANmonitor visualizes the structures of the WLAN irrespective of physical location and facilitates the central surveillance of the entire
wireless network.
More Reliability for the Future.
From the very start, LANCOM products are designed for a product life of several years. They are equipped with hardware dimensioned for the future. Even reaching back to older
product generations, updates to the LANCOM Operating System—LCOS—are available several times a year, free of charge and offering major features. LANCOM offers unbeatable
protection of your investment!
More Independence.
Equally forward-looking is the support for the Power-over-Ethernet standard. The alternative of supplying electrical power via the network cable enables access points to be
positioned fully independently of the conventional electricity supply and its power points.
What’s more...
To complete the WLAN portfolio, LANCOM also offers suitable AirLancer client adapters and a large selection of high-end antennas for professional indoor and outdoor applications.
