Data Sheet Feature Flexible, integrated dual and single radio options Standards-based LWAPP Security Zero-touch Configuration deployment Radio Resource Management (RRM) Quality of Service Guest Access Multiple Broadcast Service Set Identifiers (BSSIDs) Web-authentication Power over Ethernet (PoE) Ruggedized Enclosure Benefit ● Dual-radio option provides separate channels for the mesh infrastructure and client access, enabling pico-cellular design, minimizing system interference, and delivering high system capacity. ● Single-radio option is available for environments that require a single band solution. ● Complies with 802.11a and 802.11b/g standards for interoperability with any Wi-Fi-compliant client. ● Supports wireless backhaul over the 4.9-GHz band for reduced interference for public safety licensees, ● Single, integrated design simplifies deployment and management. ● Centralizes functions of wireless LANs at Cisco wireless LAN controllers to enable intelligent, system-level device and RF management, security, and mobility across and between subnets. ● Provides a consistent WLAN architecture between indoor and outdoor deployments. ● Managed through easy-to-use and intuitive interfaces on Cisco wireless LAN controllers and Cisco WCS Software. ● X.509 digital certification prevents unauthorized devices from joining the wireless mesh network. ● Hardware-based AES encrypts access-point-to-access-point traffic to help ensure privacy. ● The Cisco wireless LAN controllers define security policy for centralized applications. ● Supports 802.11i, WPA2, and WPA standard security authentication and encryption for interoperability with any Wi-Fi-compliant client. Supported EAP types include SIM, PEAP, TLS, TTLS, and Cisco LEAP. ● Allows access points to securely join the wireless mesh network without needing to be configured on site at installation, reducing deployment costs. ● Simplifies installations of new mesh access point when Bridge Group Names (BGN) are used. ● Interoperates with software at the controller to create an intelligent RF plane for self-configuration, self-healing, and self-optimization. ● Detects interference from existing, unrelated WLAN access points and adjusts the RF parameters to optimize network performance. ● Support for 802.11e Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) provides quality of service and seamless roaming for high-priority traffic such as voice or video. ● Provides differentiated services for high-priority traffic. ● Enables public safety and enterprise voice over IP (VoIP) and video applications. Support for guest user access through a webpage redirect to a login portal or to a public WLAN services gateway. 16 BSSIDs allow multiple virtual WLANs for different user types such as public access, municipal services, police, or fire departments as well as enable wholesale business models. Interfaces to remediation server to support third-party billing platforms. Can be powered over the same cable that provides Ethernet connectivity, simplifying the need for a nearby AC power source and reducing deployment complexity. Maximizes network uptime through reliability in severe weather conditions including rain, lightning, wind and vibration from storms or road traffic. Summary The Cisco Aironet 1500 Series is ideal for outdoor wireless deployments, scaling from enterprise extensions of indoor wireless LANs to metropolitan-sized deployments. It supports a dual-radio configuration that enables pico-cellular designs to deliver high system capacity and a single-radio configuration that supports moderate capacity needs. Cisco's patent-pending Adaptive Wireless Path Protocol (AWPP), designed specifically for wireless environments, provides dynamic path optimization and self-healing capabilities, making the Cisco Aironet 1500 Series easy to use and minimizing management costs.
