Technical Description Cisco Systems 802.11a/g/nd2.0 2.4/5Ghz ModAuto AP AIRAP1252AGEK9 Networks Wireless Networking The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series is the first enterpriseclass access point to support the IEEE 802.11n draft 2.0 standard. 802.11n offers combined data rates of up to 600 Mbps to provide users with mobile access to highbandwidth data, voice, and video applications regardless of their location. Through the use of multipleinput multipleoutput MIMO technology, 802.11n also provides reliable and predictable WLAN coverage to improve the enduser experience for both existing 802.11a/b/g clients and 802.11n clients. The robust Cisco Aironet 1250 Series Access Point Figure 1 is a modular platform designed to be easily fieldupgradeable to support a variety of wireless capabilities. This modularity allows businesses to deploy existing wireless technologies today with the confidence that their network investment will extend to support emerging and future wireless technologies. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series is a modular platform that is compliant with the 802.11n draft 2.0 standard and is the first WiFi CERTIFIED 802.11n draft 2.0 access point. Furthermore, the platform has been tested extensively to ensure simple, secure interoperability with IEEE 802.11n draft 2.0 standard devices. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series provides additional investment protection with its modular, fieldupgradeable design and easytoinstall radio modules. Cisco is committed to standards, and the Cisco Aironet 1250 Series provides a path for compliance to the final IEEE 802.11n standard, once ratified. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series supports industrystandard wireless security protocols, including 802.11i, WiFi Protected Access WPA, WPA2, and 802.1X, along with numerous Extensible Authentication Protocol EAP types. The access point delivers hardwareaccelerated Advanced Encryption Standard AES encryption designed to meet the most stringent enterprise and governm
