Zyxel Access Point NWA3100

This is a great access point. We have installed hundreds of the 3000 series in hotels, pubs, offices and even some outdoor applications. The good things about this AP are support for multiple SSIDs and VLANs, ability to connect via WDS, secure inter client blocking, SNMP etc. In short this is a good enterprise access point.
PoE support makes cabling simple and when used in conjunction with the ES2108PWR or 2024PWR switches (see switches section on our webshop) you can have a network of APs up and running very quickly at a very cost effective price. Top quality product and highly recommended.

Manufacturer's Description

15 Non-overlapping Channels and Complete Rogue AP Detection
Zyxel NWA-3100 can be configured as an 802.11a or 802.11b/g access point with up to 15 non-overlapping channels (upon regulatory domain) for high density and large-scale deployments. With dual-band support and rogue AP detection that covers the whole spectrum, all traffics are under close watch anytime. The dual-band configurable NWA-3100 wireless access point provides more channels and more security.

VoWiFi Ready
Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) is gaining more ground in office environments. The NWA-3100 is designed to combine voice, networking and wireless communications. It's WiFi WMM-certified and has Zyxel's unique ATC and auto traffic classifier that automatically prioritize the traffics, especially for conventional applications. As for roaming capability, another VoWiFi essence, NWA-3100 support pre-authentication and PMK cache, as well as IAPP enhancements to improve the hand-off timing. Deploy the VoWiFi-ready NWA-3100 and enjoy the convenience of low-cost conversation.

Enterprise Class Security
Zyxel delivers enterprise-class security features to small and medium businesses. To shield wireless communication at the source, WPA2 with TKIP/AES encryption provides the latest and toughest standard-based security while WEP encryption supports legacy wireless clients. Additionally, WPA2 ensures the compatibility with all WiFi-certified wireless clients.

Virtual AP for Specific Applications
The NWA-3100 supports up to eight SSIDs with 802.1Q VLAN tag that allows NWA-3100 to perform as multiple virtual access points. The NWA-3100 also provides pre-defined voice SSID and guest SSID for optimized voice prioritization, and offers top-level security for guest access without difficulties of complicated configuration efforts.

Powerful Management with Scalability for Massive Deployment
This access point supports a wide variety of administration features with powerful and secure control over the system. The NWA-3100 also provides a breakthrough benefit by using a centralized account on RADIUS server to control all the NWA-3100 access points; this simplifies management efforts and improves network security. Moreover, users can perform massive installation and configuration upgrades with the auto-configuration function. Simply put, the NWA-3100 is the best choice for small to medium enterprises.
