Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over Ethernet and Rangebooster 1

Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power

Over Ethernet and Rangebooster.

This access point lets you connect Wireless-G (802.11g) or Wireless-B (802.11b)

devices to your wired network so you can add computers to the network

wirelessly.

The WAP200 also offers the convenience of Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability,

so it can receive data and power over a single Ethernet network cable. You can

even connect wired networks in two different buildings, by using two access

points set to Wireless Bridge mode.

Planning Your Wireless Network

Before deploying your Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over

Ethernet and Rangebooster, take some time to plan your wireless network.

This chapter includes the following topics:

•Network Topology, page 2

•Roaming, page 3

•Network Layout, page 3

•Example of a Simple Wireless Network, page 4

Network Topology

A wireless network is a group of computers, each equipped with one or more

wireless adapters. Computers in a wireless network must be configured to share

the same radio channel to talk to each other. Several computers equipped with

wireless cards or adapters can communicate with each other to form an ad-hoc

network without the use of an access point.

Cisco wireless adapters also provide access to a wired network when using an

access point or wireless router. An integrated wireless and wired network is

called an infrastructure network. Each wireless computer in an infrastructure

network can talk to any computer in a wired or wireless network via the access

point or wireless router.

An infrastructure configuration extends the accessibility of a wireless computer to

a wired network, and may double the effective wireless transmission range for

two wireless adapter computers.

Because an access point can forward data within a network, the effective

transmission range in an infrastructure network may be doubled (depending on

antenna characteristics).

Planning Your Wireless Network

Roaming

Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over Ethernet and Rangebooster 3

Roaming

An infrastructure configuration also supports roaming capabilities for mobile

users. Roaming means that you can move your wireless computer within your

network and the access points will pick up the wireless computer’s signal,

providing that they both share the same wireless channel, SSID, and wireless

security settings.

This access point has 802.11F Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP) to complete the

roaming process in seconds. If your wireless networks share the same IP subnet,

this does not disrupt your data connection while moving around.

Before you consider roaming, choose a feasible radio channel and optimum

access point position. Proper access point positioning combined with a clear radio

signal will greatly enhance performance.

Network Layout

The WAP200 Access Point supports 802.11g and 802.11b products such as the

notebook adapters for your laptop computers, PCI adapters for your desktop

computers, and USB adapters.

These wireless products can also communicate with a 802.11g or 802.11b

wireless print server.

To link your wired network to your wireless network, connect the access point’s

Ethernet network port to any switch or router with PoE.

Planning Your Wireless Network

Example of a Simple Wireless Network

Cisco WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over Ethernet and Rangebooster 4

Example of a Simple Wireless Network

The following diagram shows a typical infrastructure wireless network setup.

In this example, the wireless access points connect to and receive power from a

PoE Cisco switch. Each access point can connect multiple wireless devices to the

network.

This network provides connectivity among wireless network devices and

computers that have a wired connection to the switch.

The switch connects to a router that connects to the Internet.
