Netgear WAG102 ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point

Intelligent Networking Features for a Scalable, Secure Solution
NETGEAR's ProSafe Dual Band Light Wireless Access Point WAG102 delivers the secure, reliable, high-performance wireless local area networks (WLANs) today's mobile workforce demands. The WAG102 Access Point supports both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz 54 Mbps radio transmission with up to 108 Mbps in both 802.11g and 802.11a in turbo mode. It supports up to 128 simultaneous wireless clients and client types within the same coverage area. WAG102 brings standards-based enterprise-level functionality at a mid-market price with features such as robust security measures, simplified management and configuration, integrated IEEE 802.3af power over Ethernet (PoE), and Wi-Fi certification. Supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and is optimized for NETGEAR ProSafe Network Management Software NMS100.

Secure
Complies with industry security standards for wireless data encryption, and user authorization. It provides support for WPA2 and 802.1x to enable strong mutual authentication to ensure only legitimate clients have access to the network. 802.11i, WPA2 Enterprise provides enhanced, interoperable wireless networking security. Supports MAC address authentication with 256-user Access Control Lists (ACL) and VPN pass-through.

Versatile
Cost-effective, simple to install and use. Wi-Fi Certified and plenum rated—appropriate for placement above drop-down ceilings and under raised floors. Equipped with convenient Smart Wizard™ browser-based interface. Fitted with two powerful detachable 5 dBi antennas and compatible with NETGEAR's ProSafe 2.4 GHz antennas for expanded wireless capacity and range. Protected with a NETGEAR Lifetime Warranty , WAG102 includes the embedded IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) port which expands installation options by eliminating the need to locate the WAG102 near a power outlet.

Dynamic
WAG102 will be integrated with radio frequency (RF) management technology, where the wireless network self optimizes by intelligently choosing channels and dynamically adjusting the power levels to ensure coverage and avoid interference. This feature will be available as an update in a future release.
