Wireless Speed, Range and Connected Devices Disclaimer
Maximum wireless transmission rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11
specifications. Range and coverage specifications along with the number of connected devices
were defined according to test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission
rate, wireless coverage, and number of connected devices are not guaranteed, and will vary as a
result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2)
network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location,
network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance,
location, connection quality, and client condition.
MU-MIMO Disclaimer (for EAPs that support MU-MIMO)
MU-MIMO capability requires client devices that also support MU-MIMO.
Seamless Roaming Disclaimer (for EAPs that support Seamless Roaming)
Seamless roaming requires both the access point and client devices to support 802.11k and
802.11v protocols.
Lightning and Electro-Static Discharge Protection Disclaimer (for Outdoor EAPs)
Protection against lightning and electro-static discharge may be achieved through proper product
setup, grounding and cable shielding. Refer to the instruction manual and consult an IT professional
to assist with setting up this product.
