802.11ac Wave 1 SU-MIMO
SU-MIMO: A Wave 1 AP communicates with one
client at a me.
802.11ac Wave 2 MU-MIMO
MU-MIMO with 1x1 clients: The UniFi SHD AP
communicates with four 1x1 clients at a me.
MU-MIMO with 2x2 and 1x1 clients: The UniFi
SHD AP communicates with one 2x2 client and
two 1x1 clients at a me.
MU-MIMO with 3x3 and 1x1 clients: The UniFi
SHD AP communicates with one 3x3 client and
one 1x1 client at a me.
Security Overview
The UniFi SHD AP delivers unprecedented wireless awareness and
security, including tools for real-me spectrum monitoring, airme
ulizaon analycs, and intrusion detecon/prevenon.
Dedicated Spectral Security Radio Using a persistent spectral scan,
the UniFi SHD AP constantly monitors the RF environment to check
for both potenal malicious acvity and the best channel for network
performance.
The dedicated security radio allows the UniFi SHD AP to scan for
security threats, such as malicious frames and rogue access points,
while maintaining throughput for client devices. At the same me,
UniFi, in conjuncon with the UniFi SHD AP, analyzes and displays the
wireless spectrum and airme ulizaon to allow the network admin to
have unprecedented real-me visibility into the spectral and protocol
usage in the network.
Threat Management The UniFi SHD AP's dedicated security radio
provides persistent threat management to act as a Wireless Intrusion
Prevenon System (WIPS)* and Wireless Intrusion Detecon System
(WIDS). Such a dedicated radio aords frequency agility – meaning all
available Wi-Fi channels are monitored constantly for threats – not just
the channels the AP is using.
Spectrum and Wi-Fi Packet Analysis The airView
®
tool oers
real-me visibility into your RF spectrum. Because it uses the dedicated
security radio, it analyzes all of your available RF channels without
aecng performance or disrupng client acvity. The airTime tool
visualizes and analyzes how the APs use channels in real me. The
breakdown is by frame type, clients, neighboring APs, protocols, and
interference.
Spectrum view and Wi-Fi packet analysis can be done simultaneously,
without aecng staons, for a total view of the RF environment and
channel ulizaon.
* Currently full-me rogue access point detecon is the main WIPS feature of the
dedicated security radio.
