HP E-802.11n Dual Radio Access Point Series

Overview:

This highest-performing family of access points improves productivity and is the first in the industry to offer three spatial stream MIMO technology, bringing IEEE 802.11n near Gigabit Ethernet performance to 900 Mbps and enhancing coverage areas with beamforming technology. These APs deliver the highest performance in 802.11n AP technology in the market today with the best price and performance in the industry. Each dual radio 802.11n access point operates in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, providing backward compatibility for IEEE 802.11a/b/g legacy technologies. These APs can operate with or without a wireless controller and support all the same enterprise features as the prior HP E-series MSM wireless products, in addition to new features, such as beamforming, bandsteering, and concurrent 5 GHz operation. The E-MSM466 access point also supports a range of indoor and outdoor MIMO antennas.

• First three spatial stream MIMO AP in the industry
• Up to 450 Mbps per radio on the E-MSM460 and 466
• E-MSM466 supports a range of antenna options
• E-MSM430 is two stream, price/performance leader
• All APs use standard IEEE 802.3af PoE power
