Features & Benefits

Delivers Secure, Voice-Ready Connectivity for WLAN Users
The 3Com® wireless LAN Managed Access Point (MAP) 3850 delivers secure, voice-ready reliable connectivity for WLAN users.

An integral component of the 3Com Wireless LAN Mobility System, the 3Com MAP 3850 with intelligent switching offers both centralized and distributed data forwarding, with the MAP automatically determining the best alternative based on the requirements of the underlying application. This allows it to support the most demanding wireless applications indoors and outdoors, including Voice over Wi-Fi.

Fully controlled by a WLAN switch or controller with which it securely communicates, the MAP contains no local data store for sensitive data, eliminating the chance of information being compromised due to hacking or theft. The end result helps reduce capital expenses and ongoing administrative costs— all while keeping the wireless LAN secure.

Provides Voice-Ready Wireless Connections
Distributed forwarding in the 3Com Managed Access Point 3850 optimizes traffic flow, reducing latency, while providing ultra high performance and massive scalability. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) helps ensure optimal QoS for voice traffic.

Simplifies Configuration, Control and Optimization
With remote management, the arduous process of initially configuring and deploying access points (APs) is vastly simplified because configuration settings are centrally distributed for consistency and accuracy. And for easier long-term management, any added MAPs inherit configuration settings from their wireless switch or controller.

Automated network controls at the wireless switch improve coverage and service by optimizing RF gain, assigning radio channels, balancing traffic loads and monitoring the RF environment of all managed access points with which it is associated.

Delivers Security and Seamless Mobility
Local traffic encryption distributes the encryption processing across the network rather than relying on one central device. Continuous, on-demand, or scheduled RF scans can be used to locate users and identify and isolate potentially harmful rogue APs or other vulnerabilities.

3Com wireless switches and controllers integrate with backend Authorization/Authentication/Accounting (AAA) servers, consistently enforcing user and group access policies across the wireless LAN to provide secure session integrity as users roam throughout the network. No re-association or IT intervention is required.

Provides Scale able Deployment of Remote Office Wireless Networks
Distributed Forwarding on the MAP 3850 allows scalable wireless deployments in remote locations. Only authentication and control traffic is sent back to the wireless controller, while most user traffic can stay local to that site, thereby improving performance and increasing scalability of distributed wireless deployments.

Extends the Reach of the Wireless Network
In addition to traditional access point functionality, the MAP 3850 can also serve as an IEEE 802.11s mesh AP, mesh point, mesh portal, or WDS bridge to other MAP 3850s, extending the reach of enterprise WLANs. The MAP can support such functionality in either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint topologies, allowing maximum flexibility within a mesh or bridged environment.
  • Distributed forwarding optimizes traffic flow, reducing latency, while providing ultra high performance and massive scalability
  • Dual-radio MAP operates simultaneously in 802.11a and 802.11b/g mode
  • Dual-mode 802.11a and 802.11b/g integrated omnidirectional diversity antennas provide excellent performance and coverage in high multi-path environments
  • For optimized security, the multi-band RF sweeps scan the wireless environment for both 802.11a and 802.11b/g rogue access points simultaneously; RF scans also detect ad-hoc users and sources of RF interference
  • PoE support either directly through a 3Com WLAN switch or controller or other 802.11af-compliant device supplies data and power over the same Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for power adapters, power cords, or AC outlets
  • Fully redundant PoE power and connectivity on both Ethernet ports enhance network resiliency
  • Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), dynamic Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), and Wi-Fi Equivalent Privacy(WEP) packet encryption help ensure strong data security
  • Support for independently encrypted and isolated subnets or VLANs using the same service set identifier (SSID) provides deployment flexibility
  • Supports location-based service applications that rely on Wi-Fi signal information for position location; common usages include asset tracking or client location
  • New or replacement MAPs inherit configuration information from the WLAN switch without the need for pre-staging or pre-configuration
  • Automated transmit power and radio channel assignment features optimize RF cell size and support different regional requirements
  • Comprehensive MAP control and management—such as channel number, power level, SSIDs, and security settings—are all handled by the WLAN switch
  • MAP 3850 can also serve as an IEEE 802.11s mesh AP, mesh point, mesh portal, or WDS bridge
  • Kensington Security Slot provides physical level security for remote location AP
