ALCATELLUCENT
OMNIACCESS RAP155 SERIES
ACCESS POINTS
Wireless and wired networking for SMB and branch offices
The multifunctional Alcatel-Lucent
OmniAccess™ RAP155 Series Access Points
(APs) deliver secure 802.11n wireless and
wired networking to small and medium-
sized businesses (SMB) and provide access
to corporate resources from branch offices.
OmniAccess RAP155 Series APs are ideal
for ultra-high-density Wi-Fi environments
that require fast encrypted throughput.
With unmatched deployment flexibility,
the OmniAccess RAP155 Series APs can
operate in Alcatel-Lucent Instant™ mode
controlled by the OmniVista™ 3600 Air
Manager management platform or in
controller-managed mode where all
network services are centralized by
OmniAccess WLAN Controllers.
In Instant mode, traffic is locally bridged
but it still provides the flexibility of
establishing secure IPsec VPN tunnels back
to WLAN controllers.
The OmniAccess RAP155 Series APs offer
a wide range of enterprise-class features,
including role-based network access
and policy-based forwarding. Integrated
ClientMatch™ technology ensures consis-
tently high performance across the WLAN
infrastructure.
At locations that require greater coverage,
a RAP155 can join an Alcatel-Lucent Instant
WLAN cluster. Simply install additional
RAP155s or any Alcatel-Lucent Instant
AP and the entire cluster is managed as
one. If one Alcatel-Lucent Instant AP fails,
another AP automatically takes over with
no disruption.
With a wireless data rate of up to 450 Mb/s,
the dual-radio RAP155 has five Ethernet
ports (one uplink and four local) and a USB
port to connect to 3G and 4G networks.
Optionally, the RAP155 can provide power
over Ethernet (PoE) on its two local ports
for IP phones and other devices.
