Description
Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess® Stellar AP1220 Series Multifunction Access Points are 802.11ac Wave 2 access points for medium-density environments to large enterprises. The AP1220 Series OmniAccess Stellar Indoor Wireless Access point offers high throughput and a seamless user experience.
The AP1220 series of ultra-powerful 802.11ac access points offer a maximum simultaneous data rate of 2.1 Gbps (1,733 Mbps at 5 GHz and 400 Mbps at 2.4 GHz), 160 MHz channels (VHT160*), multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), and four Spatial Streams (4SS). They provide a simultaneous data transfer to several terminals. This maximizes data throughput and improves network efficiency.
With optimized wireless technology with RF Radio Dynamic Adjustment, a distributed wireless architecture, secure unified access network access control, and integrated application intelligence and analysis capabilities, they are ideal for businesses of all sizes that require a simple, secure, and scalable wireless solution.
Easily deploy enterprise-class security and scalability
OmniAccess Stellar provides a visionary distributed WLAN architecture with centralized management and policy control that enforces network security from the start and enables unprecedented scale-up of network capacity. This architecture is critical to the next generation of digital businesses that need business agility, end-to-end mobility, and a secure IoT-enabled infrastructure to drive their business transformation through continuous innovation.
OmniAccess Stellar offers more security through WPA3, a new security standard for corporate and public networks. This standard improves enterprise WLAN security through complex security algorithms and stronger encryption, including a 192-bit security suite. OmniAccess Stellar also secures privacy in open, unprotected networks thanks to encryption according to the new security standard Wi-Fi Enhanced Open, which is based on opportunistic wireless encryption (OWE).
Cloud-enabled with OmniVista Cirrus
the AP1220 access points can be managed through the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® Cirrus cloud platform. OmniVista® Cirrus provides the foundation for secure, reliable, and scalable cloud network management. It provides easy network deployment and easy service rollout with advanced analytics for smarter decision making. It-friendly Unified Access functionality provides secure authentication and policy enforcement for users and endpoints.
Managed deployment with OmniVista 2500
AP1220 Series APs can be managed through the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® 2500 On-Premise Network Management System. The access points are managed as one or more access point (AP) groups (logical grouping of one or more access points). The next-generation OmniVista 2500 management suite, with its visionary, controller-less architecture, provides easy-to-use unified access workflows and an integrated Unified Policy Authentication Manager (UPAM) that supports the definition of an authentication strategy and helps enforce policies on employees, guests, and BYOD endpoints. The AP1220 series of built-in DPI technology enables real-time application monitoring and policy enforcement. The network administrator can obtain a comprehensive view of the applications running on the network and apply appropriate control measures that optimize the speed of the network for mission-critical applications. In addition, OmniVista 2500 offers advanced options for RF management, WIDS/WIPS for intrusion detection and prevention, and a heat map for site-wide WLAN planning.
Plug-and-Play: Secure, Web-based cluster deployment (HTTPS)
The AP1220 series operates by default in a cluster environment to facilitate Plugand Play deployment. Access Point clusters are autonomous systems consisting of a group of OmniAccess Stellar APs and a virtual controller (a specific access point) for cluster management. A single AP cluster supports up to 256 APs.
The Access Point cluster architecture ensures simplified and rapid deployment. After the first AP is configured using the Configuration Wizard, all other access points automatically add to the network and the configuration is updated. This ensures that the entire network is set up and operational in minutes.
The AP1220 series also supports zero-touch deployments with Alcatel-Lucent OXO Connect R2. In this procedure, all access points in a cluster receive the startup parameters securely from the local OXO Connect.
Integrated Guest Management
The AP1220 Series supports role-based management access to the AP cluster, including administrator, read, and GuestOperator access. GuestOperator access simplifies the creation and management of guest accounts and can be used by non-IT staff, such as front desk staff. The AP1220 Series Access Points also support an integrated and customizable captive portal that allows customers to provide special guest access.
Quality of Service (QoS) for Unified Communication Apps
The OmniAccess Stellar AP1220 Series Access Points support detailed QoS parameters to distinguish application areas (e.g. Voice, video, desktop sharing) and for matching QoS levels. Application-oriented RF scanning prevents interruptions to real-time applications.
RF Management
Radio Dynamic Adjustment (RDA) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings, provides DFS/TPC and ensures that access points remain free of radio frequency interference (RFI) to ensure reliable, high-performance wireless operation. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1220 Series APs can be configured to provide temporary or dedicated radio monitoring for spectral analysis and protection against intrusion into the WLAN.
