WAP4410N Wireless-N Access Point with Power Over Internet 1

Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Cisco WAP4410N Wireless-N Access Point with

Power over Ethernet.

This access point allows you to network wirelessly better than ever. An access

point allows for greater range and mobility withinyour wireless network while also

allowing you to connect the wireless network to a wired environment.

The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) feature is also supported to help you simplify

the setting up and configure security on a wireless network.

The Cisco WAP4410N Wireless-N Access Point with Power over Ethernet even

offers the convenience of Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability (in addition to

regular 12VDC power adaptor), so it can receive data and power over a single

Ethernet network cable.

TheWAP4410NAccessPointsupports the 802.11n Draft 2.0 Specificationby IEEE.

It also support 802.11g and 802.11b clients in a mixed environment. This access

point can support 802.11n connections, which are much faster than the earlier

802.11b/g technologies. In addition,this access pointprovideslongercoverageby

using multiple antennas to transmit and receive data streams in different

directions.

Networks are useful tools for sharing computer resources. You can access one

printer from different computers and access data located on another computer's

hard drive. Networks are even used for playing multiplayer video games. So,

networks are not only useful in homes and offices, they can also be fun.

Computers on a wired network create a LAN, or Local Area Network. They are

connected with Ethernet cables, which is why the network is called “wired.”

Computers equipped with wireless client cards or adapters can communicate

without cumbersome cables. By sharing the same wireless settings within their

transmission radius, they form a wireless network.

This is sometimes called a WLAN, or Wireless Local Area Network. The access

point bridges wireless networks of 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b standards and

wired networks.
