Provide the ultimate wireless experience for enterprise users through optimized Wi-Fi coverage and spectrum monitoring
Featuring a three-radio, three-stream design, the AP433is taps the full potential of 802.11n standards to deliver in today’s world of high client density and diversity. The third radio, coupled with a removable external paddle antenna, serves as a dedicated sensor for proactive spectrum analysis, enabling the infrastructure to detect, report, and react to Wi-Fi and non–Wi-Fi interference, while the two other radios provide superior user experience and enable high-bandwidth applications within the enterprise.
Equipped with a removable paddle antenna for spectrum analysis, the access point can be configured with a remote antenna to get even clearer monitoring of interference in some specific wireless settings. Built for mobility applications, the AP400 Series defines the new network edge, preparing enterprises for the all-wireless workforce and the mobility of business-essential applications.
Designed for multiple office configurations, the AP433is can be mounted with a security lock directly on a suspended ceiling or to a wall with a wall-mounting bracket.
