SPECIFICATION SHEET
ZEBRA WAVE 2 AP SERIES: AP 8432
Imagine what your business could do with a wireless network up to eight times wider and faster. Now, picture having
a WLAN that pushes contextual oers to customers, provides strategic-shaping analytics, and automatically wards
o interference and security risks. As if that isn’t enough, the unmatched benets of Zebra’s AP 8432 doesn’t stop
there. With built-in PoE-out (Power over Ethernet), it connects with any third-party Internet of Things network. Connect
IP video cameras to count customers and reduce shrinkages; add wireless temperature sensors and more. All this
can be achieved without the cost and complexity of competitive alternatives, which require multiple access points,
cables, and Ethernet switch ports.
HIGH-DENSITY NETWORK
Our true 802.11ac Wave 2 access
point, along with the high-density
optimization in WiNG 5, maximize
the value of MU-MIMO. The AP 8432
supports hundreds of wireless clients
and concurrent transmissions critical
for any enterprise.
EASY IoT ADOPTION
Zebra’s AP 8432 seamlessly integrates
IoT devices via the secondary Gigabit
Ethernet port, providing full 802.3af
power and IP connectivity. For
advanced management of your IoT
network, the AP 8432 can treat each
port as a Layer-2 or Layer-3 interface,
oering router services, IP rewalls and
multiple packet forwarding modes.
UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
Using the Integrated Deep Packet
Inspection engine (DPI), along with
Zebra NSight™ Platform*, the AP 8432
tirelessly optimizes the network.
From RF errors to key performance
indicators, the AP 8432 collects data
to measure, monitor and secure
application performance. Thanks to
its intelligent distributed architecture
-- WiNG 5 -- it can proactively adjust
to deliver the fastest, most reliable
experience. And that’s not all. The
AP 8432 works with Zebra’s Azara
cloud to deliver unparalleled scalability
and ease of deployment.
UNRIVALED SCALABILTY FROM 1
TO CLOUD
With a modern, WiNG 5 distributed
operating system, the AP 8432
oers four deployment modes to
meet any requirement: standalone
AP, virtual controller mode for creating
networks up to 64 access points, NOC
controllers scaling to 25,000 access
points, or enjoy virtually unlimited
scalability via Zebra’s Azara cloud.
EXPANDED CAPABILIITES
WITH ZEBRA’S TRIPLE SENSOR
TECHNOLOGY
Access more possibilities with the
AP 8432. The AP 8432 has integrated
three powerful sensors that optimize
security, customer engagement and
network performance.
1.
802.
11 Wireless Sensor for
Gap-free Security
Trust the AP 8432 to deliver best-in-
class PCI compliance and security
with AirDefense*. Unlike other
sensors that scan only part-time,
this dedicated, dual-band 802.11ac
sensor scans for rogue devices full
time, eliminating the risk of being
blindsided by them. Once a threat
is detected, it is checked with an
extensive security and network
vulnerability signature database to
proactively safeguard your network.
2.
T
wo-in-One Bluetooth® Sensor
• For Security and Location
Services: Monitor BT2.0 devices
in the environment using the
AP 8432 and ADSP Security
Appliance. Map BT2.0 devices,
and analyze for potential security
threats.
• Communicate with Every
Customer: Due to its ubiquitous
nature, Bluetooth is an excellent
means to engage customers.
The AP 8432 supports Apple
iBeacon™ to communicate with
a loyalty app on a customer’s
smartphone. Using Google
Eddystone™, enterprises can
send advertisements directly to
shoppers, guests and conference
attendees even without a loyalty
app pre-installed. This makes it
ideal for businesses to advertise
their app-download pages,
captive portals or site-specic
information.
3.
RF Spectrum Sensor
Maximize performance and visibility
without compromise
. Using the
dedicated full-time RF spectrum
sensor, you can monitor and
identify RF interference without
slowing down the throughput on
the data radios.
EXPERT SUPPORT
Reduce risk and lower your capital
investment and operational costs with
our support services. From planning to
implementation to post-deployment,
our experts will ensure every phase of
your WLAN lifecycle is working at its
peak, so you can too.
