Industry-Leading WLAN Performance and Scalability
All Cisco Aironet Series APs feature load-balancing services. Up to three APs, configured for different channels,
can be colocated to achieve aggregate peak capacity of 33 Mbps for a single coverage area. Load-balancing policies
based on number of users, error rates, and signal strengths redistribute users to deliver more balanced collision
domains—improving overall performance for installations covering a large number of users.
Broadcast and multicast filtering also enhance scalability. Filtering allows administrators to select the amount of such
frames that enter the WLAN, conserving the shared bandwidth. Layer 3 IP Net and IP Socket filters are also provided.
Reliability and High-Availability that Enterprise Installations Count On
For business-critical deployments, a Cisco Aironet AP can be configured as a redundant hot standby to another
AP in the same coverage area. The hot-standby AP continually monitors the primary AP on the same channel, and
assumes its role in the rare case of a failure of the primary AP.
Comprehensive WLAN Solution
Cisco offers a comprehensive WLAN solution including APs and bridges, a variety of client adapters
supporting all popular operating systems, a broad selection of antennas, as well as a security server and
enterprise management applications.
Because it is a part of the Cisco Aironet Series, the Cisco Aironet 350 AP delivers the high level of security,
manageability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness needed to deliver ubiquitous enterprise wireless services that extend
user mobility and enhance overall productivity. Table 1 provides specifications on the Cisco Aironet 350 Series AP.
