DATA SHEET

OVERVIEW 

Reliable, secure, high-speed IEEE 802.11n wireless

networking has just been made practical. These

innovative and cost-effective Power over Ethernet

(PoE) access points—compliant with 802.11n Draft

2.0— are suitable for businesses of all sizes and are

available in two configurations: 

› the 3Com

®

AP9552 dual-radio access point has both

2.4 and 5 GHz 802.11n radios allowing it to support

simultaneous 2.4 GHz 11b/g/n and 5 GHz 11a/n wire-

less connections

This access point is powered using a single, standard

IEEE 802.3af PoE connection, eliminating the need for

proprietary PoE injectors or bulky and inefficient

external power supplies.

This access point support the latest, most effective

authentication techniques to thwart intruders and

simplify network management. Advanced network

security with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2

™

),

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and IEEE 802.1X

authentication protect communication over the

wireless LAN and help ensure only authorized users

access the network.

High-level security and network management include

support for multiple SSIDs, IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, and

secure WDS bridging. 

Advanced Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO)

technology provides enhanced wireless range.

Run in stand-alone mode or with one of 3Com's WX

3000 Series wireless controllers.  When working in

conjunction with a wireless controller, get all the

features that high end enterprise customers are

looking for.  The wireless controller provides auto-

configuration of channels and power levels,

redundancy, quality of service (QoS) in a roaming

environment, layer 2/layer 3 roaming and enhanced

authentication and security features that surpass

those of stand-alone wireless networks. 

KEY BENEFITS 

ENABLING WIRELESS FREEDOM

Take advantage of the freedom of high-speed

networking without wires with the Wi-Fi

®

CERTIFIED

™

3Com AP9552 access points. Wireless LANs (WLANS)

cost-effectively extend secure mobile access to

employees, contractors and guests, creating a more

flexible environment that supports workgroup

collaboration and mobile applications such as wireless

VoIP, scanners and other handheld IP technology.
