CISCO AIRONET 1130AG SERIES
IEEE 802.11A/B/G ACCESS POINT
Low-profile enterprise-class access point with integrated antennas for easy deployment in offices and similar
RF environments.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Cisco®Aironet®1130AG Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g access points provide high-capacity, high-security, enterprise-class features in an unobtrusive,
office-class design, delivering WLAN access with the lowest total cost of ownership. With high-performing dual IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g radios,
the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series provides a combined capacity of up to 108 Mbps to meet the needs of growing WLANs. Hardware-assisted
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) encryption provides uncompromised support for interoperable IEEE
802.11i, Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) or WPA security. Supporting Cisco IOS®Software, the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is a component of
the Cisco Structured Wireless-Aware Network (SWAN) framework, a comprehensive framework that delivers an integrated, end-to-end wired and
wireless network. Using the radio and network management features of the Cisco SWAN framework for simplified deployment, along with built-in
omnidirectional antennas that provide robust and predictable WLAN coverage for offices and similar RF environments, the competitively priced
Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is ready to install and easy to manage, reducing the cost of deployment and ongoing maintenance.
The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series Access Point incorporates the next generation of Cisco Aironet radio innovation. Two high-performing radios
provide simultaneous support for 802.11a and 802.11g standards, delivering 108 Mbps data rates in the 5 and 2.4 GHz bands to distances surpassing
that of previous-generation radios. Operating on 15 nonoverlapping channels today, and 26 nonoverlapping channels with a future firmware release
(channel support will depend on country regulations), the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series avoids interference in congested airspace, simplifying the
deployment of high-capacity networks. For smooth migration, the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series takes full advantage of the dual-band capabilities of
today’s WLAN clients, while providing full backward compatibility for legacy 802.11b clients.
The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is part of the award-winning Cisco Wireless Security Suite, which supports 802.11i, WPA2, WPA and numerous
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) types. WPA and WPA2 are the Wi-Fi Alliance certifications for interoperable, standards-based WLAN
security. These certifications support IEEE 802.1X for user-based authentication, TKIP for WPA encryption, and AES for WPA2 encryption. These
certifications help to ensure interoperability between Wi-Fi-certified WLAN devices from different manufacturers.

The hardware-accelerated AES encryption of Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points supports enterprise-class, government-grade secure
encryption over the WLAN without compromising performance. IEEE 802.1X authentication helps to ensure that only authorized users are
allowed on the network. Backward compatibility for WPA client devices running TKIP, the RC4 encryption algorithm, is also supported by
the Cisco Aironet 1130AG access point.
Driven by Cisco IOS Software, the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is designed for enterprise networks. End-to-end Cisco IOS Software enables
intelligent network services, which provide connectivity, scalability, and high availability for advanced enterprise applications. A component of
the Cisco SWAN framework, the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series extends the security, scalability, reliability, ease of deployment, and manageability
available in wired networks to the WLAN.
The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series delivers optimal value for offices and similar environments. Built-in antennas provide omnidirectional coverage
specifically designed for today's open workspaces. A multipurpose mounting bracket easily secures Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points to
ceilings and walls. With an unobtrusive design, Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points are aesthetically pleasing and blend into their
environments. For maximum concealment, the access point may be placed above ceilings or suspended ceilings. The UL 2043 rating of the Cisco
Aironet 1130AG Series allows the access point to be placed above ceilings in plenum areas regulated by municipal fire codes. Centrally manageable
by the Cisco SWAN management device-the Cisco Wireless LAN Solution Engine (WLSE)-Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points can be
systematically and dynamically configured to maximize total network performance. Offered at a competitive price, and optimized for easy installation
and operation, the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series helps organizations attain a lower total cost of ownership.
APPLICATIONS
In offices and similarly open environments, Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points may be installed on the ceiling to provide users with
continuous coverage as they roam throughout a facility (Figure 1). In school buildings and similar facilities, the access points may be installed
on the ceiling of each room and hallway to provide users with full coverage and high network availability (Figure 2). In areas where a ceiling
installation may not be practical such as retail hotspots or similar small facilities, the access points can be mounted simply and securely on walls
for complete coverage with minimal installation cost (Figure 3).
