AP 7522 802.11ac ACCESS POINT

Upgrade to 802.11ac Wi-Fi speed and throughput – all at a low cost.

Your WLAN keeps your business moving, empowering your workers to achieve maximum productivity and providing your customers with the high-performance wireless services they expect inside your walls. Yet your wireless LAN is constantly pressured by the steady increase in number of users – and the bandwidth heavy and latency-sensitive voice and multi-media applications they use. Upgrading to 802.11ac could solve the problem, but cost has been an issue – until today.

Introducing the AP 7522 from Zebra, delivering 802.11ac speeds at half the cost of many of its competitors. Now, you can support virtually any of the mobile devices on your network running today’s demanding applications, with a design that fits right in to any area in your environment. The 802.11n radio ensures backward compatibility with every mobile device in use in your operation today – and 256 QAM modulation boosts the bandwidth of the 802.11n radio to 802.11ac levels. Choose internal antennas for a sleek understated look that is ideal in customer facing or carpeted office areas, or external antennas that allow you to choose the antennas you need to achieve maximum range and performance in demanding industrial areas.

If you need sensor capability, the AP 7522 gives you the flexibility to meet different business needs – you can deploy a single AP 7522 as both a sensor and an access point for maximum cost-efficiency, or as a dedicated sensor for the most robust sensing functionality. And with our high-powered radios, you’ll need fewer access points. The result? A new level of capacity and performance for your wireless LAN – at a new low cost.

THE BANDWIDTH AND APPLICATION PERFORMANCE YOU NEED TO SUPPORT ALL OF YOUR USERS

802.11ac technology builds on advances of 802.11n – the 802.11ac radio delivers more bandwidth and faster speeds through new technology advancements such as Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO). 256 QAM modulation gives the 2X2 MIMO 802.11ac radio an additional performance boost, and increases the bandwidth of the 802.11n radio to 802.11ac speeds. In addition, interference from 2.4 GHz devices is finally eliminated. Since 802.11ac operates only in the 5 GHz band, Bluetooth® headsets, microwave ovens and more will no longer impact Wi-Fi network performance. The result? Your WLAN can support an

unprecedented number of users and applications – including voice and video – allowing you to confidently deploy Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives and empower new workgroups with mobility.

EASY MIGRATION TO 5TH GENERATION 802.11ac WI-FI

The dual radio AP 7522 provides the simplest path to next generation Wi-Fi. The 802.11ac radio readies you to support new 5 GHz mobile devices, while the 802.11n radio ensures support for all existing mobile devices – including 2.4 GHz clients. The radios work together to allow you to migrate to 802.11ac at your own pace – and without the high cost of “rip and replace”.

MORE ROBUST WIRELESS CONNECTIONS

Your users will experience a more robust wireless connection than ever before, thanks to improved beamforming. Beamforming creates the most efficient path for data transmission between an access point and a mobile device. Until today, the transmitting beamformer worked alone to define this path. Now, the receiver also assists, a process known as sounding. The result is a stronger connection that enables faster data transmission. Application throughput and performance is improved, along with mobile device battery power.

GAP-FREE SECURITY

The AP 7522 secures all your wireless transmissions, ensuring compliance with the government or industry regulations your business may be subjected to, such as PCI in retail and HIPAA in healthcare.

Your network is protected every second of every day with comprehensive integrated security features that include layer 2-7 stateful packet filtering firewall, AAA RADIUS services, a VPN gateway and location-based access control.
