Product overview

Working in unison with HP controllers, the HP 802.11n Dual Radio Access Point Series delivers high-performance networking solutions.
The enhanced controller architecture scales to IEEE 802.11n without requiring a controller replacement. The controller provides
advanced radio resource management (RRM), including client load balancing and interference mitigation. The HP wireless controllers
support a fast-roaming capability—an important feature, especially for VoIP communications.
The access points can be used in managed as well as autonomous mode without a controller. The access points provide RF spectrum
analysis with detection and classification of non-IEEE 802.11 interference and have the ability to automatically avoid interference.
Wireless security is comprehensive with integrated Wireless IDS and support for internal and external authentication, authorization,
and accounting (AAA) servers; built-in stateful firewall; per-user VLAN mapping; and authentication.
In addition to working with the HP MSM controllers, these access points work with the new HP 10500/7500 20G Unified Wired-WLAN
Module, the HP 800 Series Unified Wired-WLAN Switch, and the HP WX5002/5004 wireless controllers.

Features and benefits

Management
Wi-Fi Clear Connect
provides a system-wide approach to improve WLAN reliability by proactively determining and adjusting to changing RF
conditions; helps optimize WLAN performance by detecting interference from Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi sources using Spectrum
Analysis capabilities built into the access points, identifying rogue activity and making decisions at a system-wide level
Advanced radio resource management
Automatic radio power adjustments
include real-time power adjustments based on changing environmental conditions and signal coverage adjustment
Automatic radio channel
provides intelligent channel switching and real-time Interference detection
Intelligent client load balancing
determines number of clients across neighboring APs and adjusts client allocation to balance the load
Airtime fairness
provides equal RF transmission time for wireless clients
Spectrum analysis
Power/frequency spectrum analysis
measures noise from IEEE 802.11 remote sources
Signal detection/classification
identifies source of RF interference, for example, Bluetooth, cordless phones, and microwave ovens
Evaluation of channel quality
helps detect severe channel degradation and improve the reporting of poor RF performance
Integrated IDS (Premium Mobility version required)
