FEATURES
CONVERGENCE-OPTIMIZED WIRELESS NETWORKING
D
istributed forwarding
›
The 3Com Managed Access Point 3850 with distributed forwarding optimizes traffic
flow, reducing latency.
IEEE 802.11i PMK cached roaming
›
When roaming between access points, security credentials no longer
must be completely reauthenticated, helping reduce dropped voice sessions.
Session-based bandwidth reservation
›
Voice QoS can be assured with IEEE 802.11e TSPEC Call
Admissions Control (CAC).
Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)
›
WMM grants preference to high-priority traffic like voice.
N
eighbor Report advertisement
›
Load balancing using IEEE 802.11k directs traffic to a neighbor AP that
has a lighter load or offers enhanced services.
SECURITY
Strong, multiple encryption
›
IEEE 802.11i WPA2 Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), WPA dynamic
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Wi-Fi Equivalent Privacy (WEP) packet encryption help ensure strong
data security.
Virtual private group support
›
Administrators can independently encrypt and isolate subnets or VLANs
using the same SSID.
Intrusion Detection and Protection
›
Multi-band sweeps scan the RF environment, searching for rogue
access points, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, ad-hoc users and sources of RF interference and takes action to
mitigate the intrusion.
Theft- and hacker-safe
›
No local data store of sensitive network data; if a MAP is stolen, no secure information
goes with it.
INSTALLATION EASE AND FLEXIBILITY
Simple installation
›
No pre-staging or pre-configuration is required for new MAPs; replacement MAPs inherit
configuration information from their WLAN switch or controller.
Flexible deployment topologies
›
MAP can be directly or remotely connected to their WLAN switch or controller,
offering a wide variety of flexible deployment scenarios.
PoE support
›
Both data and power are supplied by a 3Com wireless switch or any 802.11af-compliant device
over Ethernet cabling, eliminating the need for power adapters, power cords, or AC outlets.
Dual-band operation
›
The MAP 3850 supports IEEE 802.11a and 802.11b/g simultaneously for user flexibility.
SCALABILITY AND RESILIENCY
Scales to hundreds of users
›
Supports up to 500 simultaneous clients.
Intelligent switching
›
Enables distributed forwarding of user traffic through the MAP.
PoE and data port redundancy
›
If the MAP loses either the LAN or PoE connection on either port, it will
automatically failover to the other port, increasing network uptime.
COMPREHENSIVE MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL
Automated transmit power and radio channel assignment
›
Transmit power settings and radio channel
assignments can be set to optimize the RF cell size and to support international requirements.
Remote management
›
Channel number, power level, SSIDs and security settings are all handled by the
wireless LAN switch or controller for additional security; MAPs are not operational in stand-alone mode.
