Product Overview 

Introduction 

The H3C WA2200 series WLAN access points (hereinafter referred to as the WA2200 series) are 
developed by Hangzhou H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as H3C). The WA2200 
series consist of four models of access points (APs), which fall into two types according to the 
application environment: indoor and outdoor. The WA2200 series can serve as fit APs to cooperate with 
wireless switches or controllers or serve as fat APs to provide wireless access for WLAN users. 

Figure 1-1 shows the typical deployment of the WA2200 series on hotspots.
