3Com® Wireless LAN Managed Access Point 3850 KEY BENEFITS (CONTINUED) DELIVERS SECURITY AND SEAMLESS MOBILITY Local traffic encryption distributes the encryption processing across the network rather than relying on one central device. Continuous, on-demand, or scheduled RF scans can be used to locate users and identify and isolate potentially harmful rogue APs or other vulnerabilities. 3Com wireless switches and controllers integrate with backend Authorization/Authentication/Accounting (AAA) servers, consistently enforcing user and group access policies across the wireless LAN to provide secure session integrity as users roam throughout the network. No re-association or IT intervention is required. The MAP 3850 also supports location-based service applications that rely on Wi-Fi signal information for position location; common usages include asset tracking or client location. PROVIDES SCALEABLE DEPLOYMENT OF REMOTE OFFICE WIRELESS NETWORKS Distributed Forwarding on the MAP 3850 allows scalable wireless deployments in remote locations. Only authentication and control traffic is sent back to the wireless controller, while most user traffic can stay local to that site, thereby improving performance and increasing scalability of distributed wireless deployments. This new architecture provides an IEEE 802.11n-ready wireless infrastructure, without the need for expensive controller upgrades. EXTENDS THE REACH OF THE WIRELESS NETWORK In addition to traditional access point functionality, the MAP 3850 can also serve as an IEEE 802.11s mesh AP, mesh point, mesh portal, or WDS bridge to other MAP 3850s, extending the reach of enterprise WLANs. The MAP can support such functionality in either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint topologies, allowing maximum flexibility within a mesh or bridged environment. The MAP 3850 can be configured with one radio for client services and the other for mesh service. The MAP can also be used in a dedicated bridging mode, to provide seamless connectivity between buildings without the expense of laying new cable. BOOSTS RELIABILITY AND RESILIENCY The MAP 3850 offers dual Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support. With automatic failover capability for both data and electrical power, this MAP adds a level of redundancy for demanding environments and increases network uptime. 2
