Description
Product Specifications
The HPE JW172A AP-224 is a wireless access point that uses the IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard to provide fast and reliable wireless connectivity. This access point is designed to meet the needs of large-scale deployments, such as those found in enterprise-level organizations, and offers a range of features to ensure that it can meet the demands of modern wireless networks.
IEEE 802.11ac Wireless Standard
The HPE JW172A AP-224 uses the IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard, which is the latest standard for wireless networking. This standard is capable of providing significantly faster data rates than its predecessors, with speeds of up to 2.4Gbps. This high data rate is achieved through a combination of advanced modulation techniques and the use of wider channel bandwidths.
The 802.11ac standard operates in the 5GHz frequency band, which is less crowded than the 2.4GHz band used by earlier wireless standards. This means that 802.11ac devices can operate with less interference, resulting in better performance and reliability.
Features and Functionality
The HPE JW172A AP-224 offers a range of features to ensure that it can meet the demands of modern wireless networks. These features include:
- Dual Radio Design – The access point has two radios, one for 2.4GHz and the other for 5GHz, which allows it to support both legacy and modern devices.
- Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) – The access point uses MIMO technology to improve performance by allowing multiple data streams to be transmitted simultaneously.
- Beamforming – The access point uses beamforming to direct wireless signals towards client devices, improving signal strength and reducing interference.
- Integrated Antennas – The access point has internal antennas, which makes it easy to install and reduces the need for external antennas.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE) – The access point can be powered over Ethernet, which simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional power outlets.
Management and Control
The HPE JW172A AP-224 can be managed and controlled through a range of methods, including:
- Web-Based Management – The access point can be managed through a web-based interface, which allows administrators to configure and monitor the device remotely.
- Command-Line Interface (CLI) – The access point also supports a CLI interface, which allows administrators to configure the device using command-line commands.
- SNMP – The access point supports SNMP, which allows it to be integrated with network management systems for centralized monitoring and management.
In Summary, the HPE JW172A AP-224 is a high-performance wireless access point that uses the IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard to provide fast and reliable wireless connectivity. This access point is designed to meet the needs of large-scale deployments, such as those found in enterprise-level organizations, and offers a range of features to ensure that it can meet the demands of modern wireless networks. With its dual radio design, MIMO technology, beamforming, integrated antennas, and PoE support, the HPE JW172A AP-224 is an excellent choice for organizations looking for a high-performance wireless access point.
