Do more today. And the internet of things tomorrow
Imagine what your business could do with a wireless network up to eight times wider and faster. Now, picture having a WLAN that pushes contextual offers to customers, provides strategic-shaping analytics, and automatically wards off interference and security risks. As if that isn’t enough, the unmatched benefits of AP 8432 doesn’t stop there. With built-in PoE-out (Power over Ethernet), it connects with any third-party Internet of Things network. Connect IP video cameras to count customers and reduce shrinkages; add wireless temperature sensors and more. All this can be achieved without the cost and complexity of competitive alternatives, which require multiple access points, cables, and Ethernet switch ports.

High-Density Network
Our true 802.11ac Wave 2 access point, along with the high-density optimization in WiNG 5, maximize the value of MU-MIMO. The AP 8432 supports hundreds of wireless clients and concurrent transmissions critical for any enterprise.

Easy loT adoption
AP 8432 seamlessly integrates IoT devices via the secondary Gigabit Ethernet port, providing full 802.3af power and IP connectivity. For advanced management of your IoT network, the AP 8432 can treat each port as a Layer-2 or Layer-3 interface, offering router services, IP firewalls and multiple packet forwarding modes.

Unmatced Performance
Using the Integrated Deep Packet Inspection engine (DPI), along with NSight Platform*, the AP 8432 tirelessly optimizes the network. From RF errors to key performance indicators, the AP 8432 collects data to measure, monitor and secure application performance. Thanks to its intelligent distributed architecture -- WiNG 5 -- it can proactively adjust to deliver the fastest, most reliable experience. And that’s not all. The AP 8432 works with Azara cloud to deliver unparalleled scalability and ease of deployment.

Unrivaled Scalability from 1 to cloud
With a modern, WiNG 5 distributed operating system, the AP 8432 offers four deployment modes to meet any requirement: standalone AP, virtual controller mode for creating networks up to 64 access points, NOC controllers scaling to 25,000 access points, or enjoy virtually unlimited scalability via Zebra’s Azara cloud.

Expanded Capabilities with triple sensor technology
Access more possibilities with the AP 8432. The AP 8432 has integrated three powerful sensors that optimize security, customer engagement and network performance.

1. 802.11 Wireless Sensor for Gap-free Security
Trust the AP 8432 to deliver best-in-class PCI compliance and security with AirDefense*. Unlike other sensors that scan only part-time, this dedicated, dual-band 802.11ac sensor scans for rogue devices full time, eliminating the risk of being blindsided by them. Once a threat is detected, it is checked with an extensive security and network vulnerability signature database to proactively safeguard your network.

2. Two-in-One Bluetooth Sensor
• For Security and Location Services: Monitor BT2.0 devices in the environment using the AP 8432 and ADSP Security Appliance. Map BT2.0 devices, and analyze for potential security threats.
• Communicate with Every Customer: Due to its ubiquitous nature, Bluetooth is an excellent means to engage customers. The AP 8432 supports Apple iBeacon to communicate with a loyalty app on a customer’s smartphone. Using Google Eddystone, enterprises can send advertisements directly to shoppers, guests and conference attendees even without a loyalty app pre-installed. This makes it ideal for businesses to advertise their app-download pages, captive portals or site-specific information.

3. RF Spectrum Sensor
Maximize performance and visibility without compromise. Using the dedicated full-time RF spectrum sensor, you can monitor and identify RF interference without slowing down the throughput on the data radios.
