The Cisco Aironet 1240G Series is a component of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, a comprehensive solution that delivers an integrated, end-to-end wired and wireless network. Using the radio and network management features of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network for simplified deployment, the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series extends the security, scalability, reliability, ease of deployment, and manageability available in wired networks to the wireless LAN (WLAN).
The Cisco Aironet 1240G Series is available in two versions: unified or autonomous. Unified access points operate with the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) and work in conjunction with Cisco wireless LAN controllers and the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS). When configured with LWAPP, the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series can automatically detect the best-available Cisco wireless LAN controller and download appropriate policies and configuration information with no manual intervention.

Input power requirements:
- 100 to 240 VAC; 50 to 60 Hz (power supply)
- 36 to 57 VDC (device)
Powering options:
- Local power
- 802.3 AF switches
- Cisco higher-power switches capable of supporting 13W or greater
- Cisco Aironet power injectors (PWRINJ3 and PWRINJ-FIB)
