Description

HP A3000-8G-PoE Wireless Switch (JD465A)

Description

Features

Eight 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, four of which support PoE+

Ships with support for up to four managed access points and 1,024 wireless users— excellent for small-sized deployments and remote offices

Centralized forwarding and control architecture facilitates network deployment of virtual LAN (VLAN), access privileges, network management and quality of service (QoS) for wireless users

Virtual AP services enable the network administrator to provide specific services for different user groups, optimizing bandwidth and system resources and simplifying network maintenance and management

Support for Layer-3 roaming and fast roaming satisfies the most demanding voice service requirements

Exceptional switching capacity and wire-speed processing provides powerful forwarding capacity for medium-sized wireless LANs (WLANs)

Local forwarding of data packets ensures consistent broadband-based access and data transmission

Location AP-based user access control ensures wireless users can access and authenticate only to pre-selected APs, enabling system administrators to control the location that a wireless user can access in the network

Media access control (MAC)-based authentication and access control enhances the availability of the wireless network and enables network administrators to easily allocate access rights to various levels of users or user groups

802.1X network access control centralizes wireless security through existing Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) servers to simplify deployment and protect the network from unauthorized user access

QoS authorization controls the network areas a user can access as well as the access bandwidth and access priority a user can obtain, simplifying routine management tasks

Automatic AP power adjustment features analyze user access status in real-time, adapting power requirements based on environmental changes and ensuring high-quality user access signal coverage

Intelligent channel switching and real-time interference detection ensure the allocation of an optimal channel to each AP, minimizing adjacent channel interference

Intelligent load-sharing analyzes the locations of wireless clients in real time, ensuring optimal client throughput regardless of location or number of online sessions

Multiple authentication modes, including 802.1x, Web portal, MAC address and Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) certify user identity and network integrity

Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) ensures that only wireless clients who comply with mandated enterprise security policies access the network, reducing threat levels by infected wireless clients and improving the overall security of the wireless network

Robust and the most up-to-date standards-based security

Support for dual power and hot backup of power supply maximizes network availability

802.11e Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) wireless QoS standard, when combined with wired QoS policies, provides end-to-end QoS, ensuring different wireless channel competitiveness for different services

Supported by 3Com Intelligent Management Center (IMC) network management platform, which effectively integrates traditionally disparate management tools into one easy-to-use interface
