Zebra AP8232

  • Zebra AP8232

With the AP 8232 5th generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi access point, you can support more mobile devices, more wireless applications and today’s bandwidth heavy video and multimedia rich applications — all with blazing speed. The next generation 1.3Gbps 802.11ac radio provides the bandwidth to support an unprecedented number of users and applications at up to four times the speed of 802.11n. The second 802.11n radio provides an easy upgrade path to 802.11ac by ensuring support for all the mobile devices in use in your business today — 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. And its modular design transforms the AP 8232 into a multifunction access point capable of delivering other critical wireless LAN infrastructure services. Just snap on a plug-and-play module to add 3G/4G/LTE redundant backhaul, a dedicated intrusion detection sensor, RFID and more. The result? Unmatched bandwidth. Unmatched network performance. Unmatched application performance. And unmatched flexibility.

  • 3-spatial stream 3X3 MIMO access point
    Delivers maximum throughput to support virtually any enterprise application, including voice and HD video
  • 802.11n operation with standard 802.3af
    Simplifies and reduces total cost of installation using standard Power-over-Ethernet (PoE).
  • Band-unlocked dual band design
    Lets you increase security without increasing costs. Band-unlocked radios enable 24×7 dual band Wireless IPS sensing on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with concurrent 802.11a/b/g/n client access and mesh.
  • Load balancing, pre-emptive roaming and rate scali
    Increases reliability and resilience of the wireless network to support mission critical applications.
  • Standard USB interface for module attachments
    Allows for virtually unlimited possibilities for applications with its innovative design that accepts up to two module attachments, one on either side of the base.
