802.11n Wireless Access Point

Re-architect the edge of your network and tackle the toughest wireless workloads

Featuring a three-radio, three-stream design, the AP433i taps the full potential of 802.11n standards to deliver in today’s world of high client density and diversity, meeting the demand for wireless highbandwidth and mobility applications.

Added radios boost the benefits of Channel Layering, multiplying capacity within a single access point or segregating mission-critical applications. Built for mobility applications, for example an industrial site or convention/arena, the AP433i defines the new network edge, preparing enterprises for the all-wireless workforce and the mobility of business-essential applications.

Designed for flexibility and to answer specific enterprise aesthetics requirements, the AP433i can be configured with optional antennas, including an external wall mount MIMO 3-Patch antenna and a ceiling mount MIMO panel antenna. The AP433i can also be mounted with a security lock directly on a suspended ceiling or a wall. And because the AP433i is plenumrated, it can be hidden above a suspended ceiling.
