AP400
The AP400 Access Point series delivers high performance, full-speed, Wi-Fi certified
802.11n based on draft 2.0 connectivity while simultaneously supporting legacy
802.11a/b/g devices. AP400 is available in the configurations shown below.
AP400 Configurations
Features for the AP400 include:
 802.11n support with channel bonding in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands.
Channel bonding combines two 20Mhz channels into a single-wide 40Mhz channel
for increased throughput.
 Dual-band external antenna options optimized for MIMO mode.
 Plug and Play deployment using centralized controller platforms.
 Multi-layered security including standard WPA2, 802.11i security (such as
automatic traffic inspection).
 Each of these Access points may be powered by a standard 802.3af or 802.3at PoE
device. However, in order to utilize all three radios in 3x3 operation, 802.3at PoE
is required.
 Air Traffic Control technology for 802.11n devices and legacy a/b/g devices
 3x3 MIMO with 3 chains and 3 receive chains, delivering two spatial streams
 Channel span architecture which requires no channel planning or configuration
 Eight standard multiband, omni-directional antennas for AP433e.
 Powered by 5 volt DC input, 802.3af compliant PoE device, or draft 802.3at
compliant PoE device.
