Spectrum24 4131 Access Point
The Spectrum24® 4131 Series of access points from Symbol Technologies
delivers a solution to wireless connectivity which provides the WLAN
performance needed to support demanding mobile networking as well as voice and
data applications. It features support for 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection as
well as includes a Motorola 855T processor. It provides IEEE 802.11b
Ethernet-Speed Connectivity, ideal for businesses which rely upon wireless
devices.
Spectrum24 operates on the 2.4 GHz band at speeds of up to 11 Mbps. It
provides a powerful, secure solution to your wireless access needs and connects
your workers to the Internet and corporate intranets. It eliminates the costs
of wiring when system requirements are in need of temporary and ad hoc
networking services. Wireless connectivity provided by the Spectrum 24 can
enhance productivity and communications.
A Flexible and Scalable Network
The Spectrum24 4131 Access Point is capable of simultaneously supporting 127
clients who have certified 802.11b client cards, such as Symbol’s PC and
CompactFlash™ Wireless Networker™ cards for laptops and PDAs. It can also
support desktop and other USB-enabled devices. Adding more access points to the
network can increase the support and can be scaled to match the size of your
business.
Comprehensive Network Security
The Spectrum24 4131 Access Point uses MobiusGuard in order to achieve the
network security needed to satisfy data protection requirements. It uses a
combination of 40 and 128 bit WEP encryption, Symbol’s TKIP encryption,
KeyGuard, Kerberos V5 based mobile security, RADIUS, and EAP/TLS with 802.1X
control of network access in order to provide secure network connection.
The 4131 Access Point possesses a superior security intelligence system
which allows it to detect instances of unapproved access to your network and
flag it as a security breach. The 4131 is able to detect the presence of
hackers’ unauthorized access points close by your facilities in order to
protect from denial-of-service and “man-in-the-middle” attacks.
A WLAN Management System with VLAN Capabilities
4131 Access Points
enables the use of Extended Service Set Identification (ESSID), which extends
VLAN capabilities to the wireless network. Administrators are capable of
designating several types of users based on security type, class-of-service,
and QoS required all by using a single 4131 Access Point.
A Powerful, Scalable Wireless Solution
The Spectrum24 4131 access point ensures the best throughput and range is
achieved by transmitting data at 11 Mbps and then scaling it down to 5.5 Mbps,
2Mbps, and 1 Mbps. As the connected device’s signal strength diminishes, the
rate at which data is transmitted also decreases in order to maintain data
integrity and functionality.
Local and International Network Roaming
The 4131 allows workers on the network can roam across routers as clients
move subnets with mobile IP functionality. This provides persistent
connectivity while workers roam around your facility. The 4131 Access Point
supports IEEE 802.11d standards and allows for international roaming as it
adjusts to the local country and regulatory requirements.
