1.2.3 Multiple Mounting Options
The access point rests on a flat surface, attaches to a wall, mounts under a ceiling or above a ceiling
(attic). Choose a mounting option based on the physical environment of the coverage area. Do not
mount the access point in a location that has not been approved in an either an AP-5131 or outdoor
AP-5181 radio coverage site survey.
For detailed information on the mounting options available , see
Mounting an AP-5131 on page 2-13
or
Mounting an AP-5181 on page 2-24
.
1.2.4 Antenna Support for 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz Radios
The access point supports several 802.11a and 802.11b/g radio antennas. Select the antenna best
suited to the radio transmission requirements of your coverage area.
For an overview of the Radio 1 (2.4 GHz) and Radio 2 (5.2 GHz) antennas supported on the access
point’s
Reverse SMA (RSMA)
connectors, see
Antenna Specifications on page A-5
. The AP-5181
model access point uses an antenna suite primarily suited for outdoor use.
1.2.5 Sixteen Configurable WLANs
A
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
is a data-communications system that flexibly extends the
functionalities of a wired LAN. A WLAN does not require lining up devices for line-of-sight
transmission, and are thus, desirable for wireless networking. Roaming users can be handed off from
one access point to another like a cellular phone system. WLANs can therefore be configured around
the needs of specific groups of users, even when they are not in physical proximity. Sixteen WLANs
are configurable on each access point.
To enable and configure WLANs on an access point radio, see
Enabling Wireless LANs (WLANs) on
page 5-27
.
1.2.6 Support for 4 BSSIDs per Radio
The access point supports four BSSIDs per radio. Each BSSID has a corresponding MAC address. The
first MAC address corresponds to BSSID #1. The MAC addresses for the other three BSSIDs (BSSIDs
#2, #3, #4) are derived by adding 1, 2, 3, respectively, to the radio MAC address.
