Xirrus XR-520H Hardened Wireless Access Point

The Xirrus XR-520H Access Point provides Xirrus technology in a hardened case for harsh environments. The unique case design protects the Array electronics from rain, heat, cold, direct sun, and wind. The hardened Access Point includes two software programmable (2.4GHz and 5GHz) radios with two lightning protected RP-TNC style connectors each, integrated wireless controller, application-level intelligence, automated provisioning, and cloud management (optional) contained in a hardened case. The XR-520H is designed to meet requirements for extending wireless coverage outdoors or in other harsh environments such as playgrounds, campus quads, stadium stands and warehouse freezers. In addition the XR-520H is an ideal candidate for high speed point-to-point wireless data links directly connecting networks across streets and waterways.

Key Benefits

Application Control

Firewall, apply QoS, and manage 900+ application types under 15 categories using Layer 7 Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and other contextual application detection techniques.

2.4GHz Optimization

Extended radio power control range enables reduced 2.4GHz cell size coverage to optimize channel reuse in dense scenarios and improve user capacity. Honeypot Mode helps increase available wireless device density through management of spurious association traffic.

5GHz Optimization

With two software programmable radios ran can be configured to run at either 2.4GHz or 5GHz, the XR-520H eases the transition from 2.4GHz to 5GHz centric networks.

Bonjour Director Support

Extend Apple Bonjour protocols across Layer 3 boundaries for simple setup and configuration of commonly used shared Apple services such as Airplay and Airprint.

Bring Your Own Device

Integration with Xirrus Access Manager (XAM) allows guests and employees alike to use non-corporate configured wireless devices while the XR-520 enforces appropriate access policies.

Fully Ruggedized

The XR-520H meets the requirement of the harshest environments. It is completely dust sealed and meets the requirements for IP65. The product has been tested to operate in temperatures as low as -40°C and as high as +55°C.
