Introduction
Perfect for extending network coverage to outside areas, the AP 7161 brings the latest 802.11n 3x3

Deployments can be managed using the Motorola Solutions WiNG 5 architecture. The WiNG 5 architecture is a
solution designed for 802.11n networking. It
leverages the best aspects of independent and dependent
architectures to create a smart network that meets the connectivity, quality, and security needs of each user and
their applications based on the availability of network resources, including wired networks. WiNG 5 is a Third
Generation WLAN solution which incorporates the best of both the first generation Autonomous Access Point

The control plane is now distributed between the access points and the controllers. The

Capacity in video surveillance solutions is critical to the performance of many networks designed to monitor and
provide safety. To assist with the deployment of video surveillance networks where the camera
resides, the AP 7161 offers band unlocked radio
flexibility.
The user can choose between 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz and 4.9Ghz
bands for the radio type. The AP 7161 supports 3x3 MIMO technology, reaching a maximum data rate of 300
