Overview of the Extricom Access Point
Extricom’s EXRP-20, EXRP-20D and EXRP-40 UltraThin APs are high-bandwidth devices,
containing standard 802.11 radio devices. The EXRP-20 and EXRP-20D contain two radio devices
while the EXRP-40 contains four radio devices
Since the APs have no software, they require no configuration. This makes them fully
interchangeable, enabling truly plug-and-play installation. If stolen, the APs do not pose a security
risk, since all encryption is performed in the switch.
With all intelligence residing in the WLAN switch, APs may be placed as close together as
necessary to provide high-quality, high-speed connectivity from all locations within the enterprise.
APs are connected to the Extricom WLAN Switch via standard Cat5e/6 cables. Since the APs are
powered by the standard 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE), only a single Cat5e/6 cable connection
is required to support two simultaneous radios.

Current software version on the WLAN switch only support two channel blankets, as
such when the EXRP-40 is connected, only two radio devices on this access point
will operate. Future versions will support full configuration
Extricom APs only function when they are directly connected to Extricom switches.
