Features:
Flexible Wi-Fi
Administrators can quickly deploy the AP30 in any location that has connectivity requirements. No need to run new cables or ceiling-mount this access point, simply find a power outlet and plug it in. Once powered, the AP30 can be Ethernet connected to a neighboring data outlet, mesh to an existing network, or operate as an overlay sensor.
3rd Party Networks
The AP30 can connect to 3rd-party Wi-Fi networks to help compensate coverage or capacity challenges. With sensor mode equipped, the AP30 may also be used to monitor 3rd-party networks for efficiency so that administrators can optimize their network accordingly.
No More Dead Zones
The AP30 can be temporarily or permanently installed in minutes to eliminate dead zones in distant corners of the office, long hallways or passageways, staircases, breakrooms, storage rooms, etc., saving the time and money of pulling new cable or re-positioning existing ceiling-mounted access points.
Remote VPN
The AP30 can instantly extend corporate connectivity to anywhere you can plug it in to a power socket and get an IP address. With the AP30’s native VPN capability you can instantly make your corporate SSID and security available for teleworkers, marketing events, sales demonstrations, offsite meetings, embedded employees consulting for other companies, temporary offices, and so on.
Solve Density Issues
Augment overloaded ceiling-mounted access points in any-sized meeting space. The AP30 can be temporarily or permanently installed in minutes to mitigate overloaded ceiling-mounted access points in conference rooms, training rooms, cafeterias, lobby areas, waiting rooms, gymnasiums, etc.
IoT Connectivity
The AP30 can quickly and easily bridge an IoT device to an Extreme or 3rd-party network in any easy or hard-to-reach location. The AP30 can act like an IoT hub and securely connect any Wi-Fi and/or Ethernetbased IoT device and sensor.
