ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP350 Reference Manual • Wireless Multimedia (WMM) Support. WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Timedependent information, like video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM. • WMM Power Save Support. Power Save uses mechanisms from 802.11e and legacy 802.11 to save power (for battery powered equipment) and fine-tune power consumption. • VLAN Security Profiles. Each Security Profile can be assigned a VLAN ID as each Security Profile is modified. 802.11a/b/g/n Standards-based Wireless Networking The ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP350 provides a bridge between Ethernet wired LANs and 802.11a/b/g/n compatible wireless LAN networks. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other devices. Additionally, the WNDAP350 supports the following wireless features: • Aggregation Support • Reduced Inter Frame Spacing support • Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) support • Distributed coordinated function (CSMA/CA, Back off procedure, ACK procedure, retransmission of unacknowledged frames) • RTS/CTS handshake • Beacon generation • Packet fragmentation and reassembly • Auto or long preamble • Roaming among access points on the same subnet Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink The WNDAP350 can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation. The wireless access point incorporates Auto UplinkTM technology. The Ethernet port will automatically sense whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a "normal" connection such as to a computer or an "uplink" connection such as to a switch or hub. That port will then configure itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates any concerns about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right connection. 1-4 Introduction v1.1, November 2009

Introduction
v1.1, November 2009
•
Wireless Multimedia (WMM) Support.
WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM
allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-
dependent information, like video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For
WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM.
•
WMM Power Save Support.
Power Save uses mechanisms from 802.11e and legacy 802.11
to save power (for battery powered equipment) and fine-tune power consumption
.
•
VLAN Security Profiles.
Each Security Profile can be assigned a VLAN ID as each Security
Profile is modified.
802.11a/b/g/n Standards-based Wireless Networking
The ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP350 provides a bridge between Ethernet
wired LANs and 802.11a/b/g/n compatible wireless LAN networks. It provides connectivity
between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop
systems, print servers, and other devices. Additionally, the WNDAP350 supports the following
wireless features:
•
Aggregation Support
•
Reduced Inter Frame Spacing support
•
Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) support
•
Distributed coordinated function (CSMA/CA, Back off procedure, ACK procedure,
retransmission of unacknowledged frames)
•
RTS/CTS handshake
•
Beacon generation
•
Packet fragmentation and reassembly
•
Auto or long preamble
•
Roaming among access points on the same subnet
Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink
The WNDAP350 can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is autosensing
and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation.
The wireless access point incorporates Auto Uplink
TM
technology. The Ethernet port will
automatically sense whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a “normal”
connection such as to a computer or an “uplink” connection such as to a switch or hub. That port
will then configure itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates any concerns
about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right
connection.
