•
Three external RP-SMA antenna ports—Ports support external omnidirectional and
paddle antennas. See “WLA532E Antenna Models” on page 7.
•
WLA532E supports wireless mesh functionality on both 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radios
when used with omni-directional and wide beam width sector antennas. WLA532E
allows configurations in which one antenna port can be used to operate in single-stream
mode for client access and the two other antenna ports can be used to operate in
two-stream mode for traffic backhaul. See “External Antenna Configurations for the
WLA532E Access Point” on page 8.
•
One 2.4GHz radio—One 2.4-GHz IEEE 802.11ng radio that supports 3x3 spatial streams
and is backward compatible with 2 SS and 1 SS radios.
•
One 5GHz radio—One 5-GHz IEEE 802.11na radio that supports 3x3 spatial streams
and is backward compatible with 2 SS and 1 SS radios.
•
One 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port—One 10/100/1000BASET auto-sensing
Gigabit Ethernet port with an RJ45 connector to connect the access point to a wireless
LAN controller or switch.
•
Power over Ethernet (PoE) on the Gigabit Ethernet port—12.95W power consumption
within IEEE standard 802.3af power on the Gigabit Ethernet port. This feature reduces
power consumption.
Hardware Mounting Options for the Access Point
Hardware mounting option for the access point include:
•
9/16-inch or 15/16-inch T recessed ceiling-tile rail adapter and indoor ceiling rail
adapter—see “Installing the WLA532E Access Point on a Ceiling Rail” on page 46.
•
Wall mount adapter —see “Installing the WLA532E Access Point on the Wall Using
the WLA-BRKT-WALL Wall-Mount Kit” on page 64.
•
Trapeze Legacy Mounting Bracket Adapter—see “Installing the WLA532E Access Point
on a Ceiling Rail Using the Trapeze Legacy Mounting Bracket Adapter Kit” on page 57.
