Hardware Description
This device combines high-performance wireless mobility with Gigabit
wired local access to deliver secure network access to dormitories, hotel
rooms, classrooms, medical clinics, and multi-tenant environments.
MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology enables the W-
AP205H to provide wireless 2.4 GHz 802.11n and 5 GHz 802.11n/ac
functionality, while simultaneously supporting existing 802.11a/b/g
wireless services. The W-AP205H access point works in conjunction with
a Dell controller.
The W-AP205H access point provides the following capabilities:
l Dual wireless transceivers
l Protocol-independent networking functionality
l IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless access point
l IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless air monitor, spectrum
analyzer
l Compatibility with IEEE 802.3af/at PoE
l Centralized management configuration and upgrades using a
controller
l PoE power sourcing to an attached PoE network device
l Support for select USB peripherals
For more information, see the Dell Networking W-AP205H Access Point
Installation Guide.
W-AP228 W-AP228 is a fully temperature hardened, water resistant, indoor rated,
