Product Overview

The Enterasys Wireless solution optimizes distribution of the processing load between Access

Points (APs) and wireless controllers to deliver exceptional performance while remaining easy

to manage. Complex, time-sensitive functions such as QoS, encryption, policy enforcement and

dynamic channel selection are handled by the AP, while global functions like conﬁguration,

roaming, security management, and policy control are centralized at the wireless controller.

Furthermore, the innovative Enterasys Wireless VNS architecture is able to determine how to

forward trafﬁc for the highest performance and reliability for each application. The result is a

WLAN infrastructure that can easily be leveraged to deploy VoWLAN and new high-performance

solutions such as HD video applications.

Enterasys Wireless Access Points are available in the following models:

PAGE 2
Enterasys Wireless APs work together to prevent interference and optimize RF sharing. Each AP is able to intelligently and dynamically adjust its transmit power and channel based on information related to neighboring APs. This ensures optimal performance for all wireless clients. If an AP fails, neighboring APs will increase power to maintain coverage in the affected area. The APs also support RF channel plan selection with the option of supporting 3-channel, 4-channel, or a fully custom configuration.
PAGE 3
Dynamic Radio Management (DRM) Quality of Service (QoS) Each Enterasys Wireless Access Point supports DRM. Although DRM is centrally managed and configured by the controller, DRM functions as a fully distributed system managing channels and transmit power allowing the WLAN infrastructure to adapt to RF interference (802.11 and others), heavy channel utilization, and AP failures. Enterasys Wireless APs support extensive functionality to ensure the best service for all multimedia applications.
