ZyAIRTM B-3000
Intelligent Wireless LAN
Access Point
The secure and reliable ZyAIR B-3000 Intelligent Wireless LAN Access Point is a robust wireless LAN solution for Hot
Spot and enterprise applications. The ZyAIR B-3000 can be easily integrated into an existing wired network to increase
scalability and versatility as well as expand network connectivity.
The ZyAIR B-3000 includes bridging functions that enable secure wireless communication between buildings and within
environments where deployment may be difficult. Furthermore, the embedded Power over Ethernet (PoE) design allows
for installation in areas without access to power outlets.
The ZyAIR B-3000 also features robust security, which includes 802.1x authentication, 256-bit WEP encryption, Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA) and VLAN support. Such features allow network operators to define different security policies for
different user groups.
With a compact, modern design and powerful features, the ZyAIR B-3000 Intelligent Wireless LAN Access Point allows
users to access their networks with complete freedom.
Benefits
High Level of Network Security Based on WPA*
The ZyAIR B-3000’s security architecture is based on WPA for wireless networks. WPA is a complete security solution,
which combines advanced TKIP encryption with powerful IEEE 802.1x-based user authentication.
Connect Multiple Sites with Bridge Function
Network operators are often faced with the challenge of establishing communication between two or more buildings in
an area. The ZyAIR B-3000 provides a powerful point-to-multipoint bridge, which facilitates wireless communication in
a cost-effective way.
Configurable Access Right for Different User Groups
The ZyAIR B-3000 allows for the creation of Multi-ESSIDs within one device. Each user group on a network may be
assigned a different SSID, thereby restricting the access rights and services accessible by each group. An intra-BSS
feature blocks traffic between users similar to a VLAN-like service.
User-friendly Installation & Configuration
The ZyAIR B-3000’s easy-to-use installation guide and intuitive web-based configuration tools allow users to launch a
network in minutes. The ZyAIR B-3000 is powerful enough to satisfy the most demanding network operator while
remaining simple enough for a non-technical user to deploy. Users immediately benefit from the ZyAIR B-3000 by
avoiding costs associated with deploying Ethernet cables in walls and ceilings.
Scalable and Easy to Deploy
A wireless network served by the ZyAIR B-3000 may be easily extended with the addition of more ZyAIR B-3000 access
points. Such network expansion allows for seamless integration into a wired network, improving access without
sacrificing workspace freedom or network performance. Additional features such as built-in Power over Ethernet support
eliminates the requirement for power outlets when deploying the ZyAIR B-3000 and gives operators much more
freedom when building a network.
Seamless Link Quality Around Home and Office
The ZyAIR B-3000‘s variable, high-powered antennas provide seamless roaming throughout the wireless LAN
infrastructure and allow users to share network resources and equipments with high link quality. Network access can be
enjoyed anytime and anywhere.
