The EliteConnect™ Universal 2.4GHz/5GHz Wireless Access Point (SMC2555W-AG2) provides a secure and high-performance enterprise class wireless LAN supporting up to 64 users. The reliability, security, and manageability of the SMC2555W-AG2 make it an ideal solution for any organization looking to satisfy its workforce’s mobile computing needs.

New features included in the new SMC2555W-AG2 include Multiple SSID support, Wireless Distribution System (WDS), VLAN tagging, and Wireless Multimedia (WMM) support. Multiple SSID’s allow you to create virtual access points with one physical unit. You can set different encryption schemes and VLAN ID’s per SSID which allows for segmentation of user
groups and policies. WDS support enables repeating functionality between other SMC enterprise access points or bridges. Wireless repeating is an alternative to extending your wireless coverage without the need to run Ethernet cables.

Wireless LAN security is a main concern in enterprise deployment. The EliteConnect™ Universal 2.4GHz/5GHz Wireless Access Point provides enterprise level advanced authentication and encryption security features. Security features include the new Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2), up to 152-bit WEP encryption, AES, 802.1x authentication
access control with key rotation (MD5, EAP-TLS per user per session key, EAP-TTLS per user per session key, session key and broadcast key rotation, and PEAP), support for FUNK Odyssey and Microsoft RADIUS Server, up to 1024 MAC address authentication, disabled SSID broadcast, and up to 64 virtual LANs (VLANs) through 802.1x.

The new SMC2555W-AG2 also has flexible management features. Web-based network management tools make configuration and remote management of the network simple.

SMC2555W-AG2 comes with detachable antennas with R-SMA connectors for optional 2.4GHz and 5GHz High Gain Antennas for extended range and coverage. The new enterprise level 802.11a/b/g Wireless Access Point supports Power over
Ethernet that adheres to 802.3af standard. Power over Ethernet support reduces installation cost by using standard Category 5 cable to provide power to the Access Point. In addition, SMC2555W-AG2 provides an anti-theft mechanism by integrating a Kensington security slot on the device. All of the above make SMC2555W-AG2 a perfect solution with unparalleled flexibility and investment protection for your wireless LAN deployment.
