NAP102
802.11ac Dual-Radio Nebula Cloud Managed Access Point
The Zyxel Nebula NAP102 802.11ac Dual-Radio Nebula Cloud Managed Access
Point is a high-performance, cloud-managed 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac AP designed
for deployments in offices, schools, hospitals, hotels and retail stores. With
ultra-fast speeds of up to 1.2 Gbps, the Nebula NAP102 has revolutionized
cloud managed wireless networking to a higher entry level. Featuring dualconcurrent, dual-band operation and advanced technologies such as
Dynamic Channel Selection, Load Balancing and Smart Client Steering, the
NAP102 delivers high throughput and reliable coverage for a superb Wi-Fi
experience.
Every Nebula AP has been engineered for cloud management. Based on the
NETCONF standard, all data traffics between the cloud and access points are
exchanged using secure transports to ensure transaction-safe configuration
on all Nebula devices. Furthermore, with the intuitive management interface,
administrators are able to manage all the access points quickly even without
training.
Benefits
Zero-touch deployments
The Zyxel Nebula NAP102 auto-configures itself after installation and then
automatically connects to the Nebula cloud to join the network; so autoconfiguration, provision, monitoring and diagnostics can be performed
anytime, anywhere. This simplifies network setup and enables deployment of
Nebula APs to a remotely located network even by non-IT professionals.

Optimized wireless experience
The Zyxel Nebula NAP102 delivers optimized wireless experience
for users with comprehensive wireless features such as Dynamic
Channel Selection (DCS), Load Balancing, and Smart Client
Steering, etc. DCS avoids interference from co-channeling and
overlapping channels continuously, while Load Balancing and
Smart Client Steering which features Band Select and Balance
for more spectrum to provide more stable, reliable wireless
connections.
Smoke detector design that blends into environments
Different from traditional business access points, the Zyxel
Nebula NAP102 comes in a “smoke detector” ceiling-mount
design. Since the “smoke detector” design is not invasive, there
is no need to hide it behind the ceiling tiles; and the ceilingmount optimized RF design can provide its best performance
and coverage. In addition, the NAP102 is plenum-rated and made
of non-toxic materials without hazardous emission – critical for
public indoor wireless deployments.
Enterprise-class security
The Zyxel Nebula NAP102 inherits the NETCONF protocol for
secure configuration changes. In terms of authentication
and data encryption, it supports WPA2 enterprise protection
and a wide range of Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
types, including EAP SIM for smartphones. Besides, the NAP102
also features access control and Layer-2 isolation for privacy
protection. The comprehensive security features ensure NAP102
to deliver enterprise-grade protection to the entire network.
Real-time control of all the devices through
a single pane of glass
Ultra-fast speed
The Zyxel Nebula NAP102 is a 2x2 802.11ac AP that provides
Gigabit Wi-Fi experience. The concurrent dual-band support
meets the pervasive BYOD demands to support more clients with
equal signal coverage in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
