MP-422B, 802.11a(5 GHz), 802.11b/g(2.4 GHz), WEP, 128bit WEP, WPA, white
802.11a/b/g dual-radio indoor access point designed for entry-level deployments with high-performance requirements.
The MP-422B is an indoor access point that provides extended coverage for 802.11a/b/g wireless LANs. It has dual radios (802.11a and 802.11b/g) featuring dual diversity antennas on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The MP features two 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports for redundant connectivity and 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). Its enclosure intentionally resembles a smoke detector to minimize visibility. With no obvious hallmarks of an access point, the MP-422B is less likely to be tampered with, but also features a built-in Kensington lock system for added physical security.
The MP-422B is simple to deploy, easy to manage, and supports any kind of service—data, voice and video—over Wi-Fi, automatically calculating the data integrity and RF signal strength of the wireless channel and continually tuning for optimal RF channel and transmit power, while enforcing the prioritization of delay-sensitive voice and other critical applications. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) can be configured to ensure optimal QoS for voice traffic. Policies allow per user, protocol, or class-of-service (CoS) mapping.
In addition to traditional access point functionality, the MP-422B can also serve as Mesh AP, Mesh Portal, or WDS Bridge to extend the reach of enterprise WLANs. Furthermore, the MP-422B can support such functionality in either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint topologies, allowing maximum flexibility within a mesh or bridged environment. In mesh portal mode, the MP-422B acts as the gateway node to the wired network, advertises services to mesh access point nodes, and enforces firewall, access and quality of service (QoS) policy, simultaneously performing broadcast suppression—all of which serve to optimize RF spectrum utilization in the mesh. The MP-422B can be configured with one radio for client services and the other for mesh service.
The MP-422B plays a key role in rogue and intrusion detection as well as denial-of-service (DoS) attack detection. ActiveScan allows MPs to fulfill a dual role. The system scans all 802. 11 channels, while simultaneously providing wireless connectivity to mobile clients. SentryScan allows MPs or individual MP radios to act as dedicated sentries, providing nonstop scanning.
The MP-422B also supports location-based service applications that rely on Wi-Fi signal information for position location. Common usages include asset tracking or client location.
