The AP 8132 is a 3-spatial stream device delivering data rates up to 450Mbps per radio. The first-of-its-kind modular Wi-Fi access point (AP) combined with Zebra’s WiNG 5 technology delivers an outstanding quality experience for wireless users with smartphones and tablets.
The AP 8132’s flexibility unleashes virtually unlimited possibilities and provides high-performance guest and staff access for retail, hospitality and other enterprises. Using a standard USB interface for module connectivity, allows for virtually unlimited possibilities for applications with its innovative design that accepts up to two module attachments, one on either side of the base AP.
The AP 8132 continues Zebra’s tradition of offering one of the best performing radios in its class, giving strong output power capabilities. Both radios within the AP are band-unlocked radios to enable 24x7 dual band Wireless IPS sensing on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with concurrent 802.11a/b/g/n client access and mesh. Additionally the AP 8132 features an onboard TPM chip which can increase the security and reliability of the device. The AP 8132 is designed to run off 802.3at, but can be configured to run off 802.3af power, allowing installations to gain the throughput of a 3-stream AP, without immediately needing to upgrade the wired network to support higher power.
At release the AP 8132 will run WiNG release 5.2.6, and will be compatible with all RFS controllers as well as the NX9000 and NX9500 series Integrated Services Platforms.
