Internal Use Only—Beta Draft

— AP311: Single dual-band 802.11n radio and single 802.11a/b/g radio (AP320

upgradeable)

— AP302: Two dual-band 802.11a/b/g radios (AP320 upgradeable)

Features for the AP300 include:

z 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.

z Dual-band external antenna options optimized for MIMO mode

z Plug and Play deployment using centralized controller platforms

z Multi-layered security including standard WPA2, 802.11i security such as

automatic traffic inspection

z Each of these Access points may be powered by a standard 802.3af PoE device.

z Air Traffic Control technology for 802.11n devices and legacy a/b/g devices

z 3x3 MIMO with 3 chains and 3 receive chains, delivering full 300Mbps data rates using 2

spatial streams

z For AP302 and AP311, the a/b/g radio software upgrades to 802.11n for maximum

investment protection.

z Channel span architecture which requires no channel planning or configuration

z Six standard multiband, omni-directional antennas for AP302, AP320 and AP311.

Three standard multiband, omni-directional antennas for AP310.

z Powered by 5 volt DC input, 802.3af compliant PoE device, or draft 802.3at

compliant PoE device.
