Enabling Wi-Fi Convergence for

Enterprise Applications

High Density and Large-scale Deployments

ZyXEL NWA-3500 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-3500 wireless access point provides more channels and more security.

Maximum Wireless Throughput

The dual-radio feature of NWA-3500 supports dual-band configuration, therefore it can be configured as a concurrent dual-band access point to provide maximum wireless throughput. It can also be configured as 11a for bridging, or 11g for extending the wireless coverage without compromising the throughput. The concurrent dual-band capability indeed provides unlimited flexibility for efficient Wi-Fi network planning.

Voice, Networking and Wireless Communications

As Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) gains more ground in office environments today, ZyXEL's NWA-3500 is designed to meet voice and data convergence requirements. It's Wi-Fi WMM-certified and has ZyXEL’s unique Auto Traffic Classifier (ATC) that automatically prioritizes traffics, especially for conventional applications. As for roaming capability, another VoWiFi essence, the NWA-3500 supports pre-authentication, PMK cache and IAPP enhancements to improve the hand-off timing. Deploy the VoWiFi-ready NWA-3500 and enjoy the convenience of low-cost conversations instantly.

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 Wi-Fi-certified wireless clients.
