AP 8533 – A True 802.11ac, Wave 2 Access Point
EIGHT TIMES THE CAPACITY. TRIPLE THE SENSORS.
Ever increasing demand to support more mobile devices and applications, as well as customer engagement, redefines the network year after year. Jump to the front of the line with the new Zebra AP 8533. This innovative access point features true 802.11ac Wave 2 capabilities and Zebra Triple Sensor technology to support your growing business and customer needs. Personalize the shopping experience with Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) beacons, secure the network from existing and new threat vectors, and deepen network visibility of applications running over your wireless LAN. With AP 8533’s advanced capabilities, you can prevent “upgrade fatigue”.
HIGH-DENSITY NETWORK
Our true 802.11ac Wave 2 access point, along with the high-density optimization in WiNG 5, maximize the value of MU-MIMO for high-density networks. The AP 8533 supports hundreds of wireless clients and concurrent transmissions critical for any enterprise.
UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
Using the Integrated Deep Packet Inspection engine (DPI), along with Zebra NSight™ Platform*, the AP 8533 tirelessly optimizes the network to extract every bit from the airwaves. From RF errors to key performance indicators, the AP 8533 collects data to measure, monitor and secure application performance. Thanks to its intelligent distributed architecture— WiNG 5—it can proactively adjust to deliver the fastest, most reliable experience. And that’s not all. The AP 8533 works with Zebra’s Azara cloud to deliver unparalleled scalability and ease of deployment.
UNRIVALED SCALABILTYFROM 1 TO CLOUD
With a modern, WiNG 5 distributed operating system, the AP 8533 offers four deployment modes to meet any requirement: standalone AP, virtual controller mode for creating networks up to 64 access points, NOC controllers scaling to 25,000 access points, or enjoy virtually unlimited scalability via Zebra’s Azara cloud.
