Proxim ORiNOCO AP-4000M User manual

High Capacity Mesh Access Points Deliver Flexible, Scalable and Reliable Data,
Voice and Video for Large Metropolitan and Enterprise Wi-Fi®Deployments
Powered by the ORiNOCO Mesh Creation Protocol, the dual-radio ORiNOCO Wi-Fi Mesh
Access Points deliver data, voice and video over Wi-Fi to the edge of a network over a flexible,
auto-forming, self-healing, near line of sight mesh backbone. The dual-radio architecture
separates the mesh backbone traffic from the edge access traffic, increasing capacity compared
to single-radio mesh architectures. The ORiNOCO Wi-Fi Mesh Series consists of an indoor form
factor (AP-4000M) and a ruggedized, outdoor form factor (AP-4000MR and AP-4000MR-LR1).
Seamless integration between ORiNOCO indoor and outdoor mesh access points enable
existing indoor Wi-Fi mesh networks to extend outdoors.
• The ORiNOCO Mesh Creation Protocol (OMCP) enables mesh backhaul and Wi-Fi coverage
on one radio, while the second radio is used exclusively for Wi-Fi coverage
• Industry-leading throughput with 802.11g and 802.11a simultaneous operation
• Super Mode allows Super Mode-capable clients to get double the data rate as standard clients
while simultaneously allowing standard Wi-Fi clients to communicate with the access points
• Robust RADIUS accounting and authorization interface enables detailed subscriber usage tracking
• WMM/802.11e draft Quality of Service support for data, voice and video
Proactive Security Measures to Protect Your Network
ORiNOCO access points support the latest security standards, including IEEE 802.11i and
AES encryption, and add proactive security measures to prevent attacks.
• Intra-cell blocking and traffic redirection to prevent subscriber-to-subscriber attacks
• Broadcast bandwidth throttling prevents broadcast attacks
• IEEE 802.1x mutual authentication
• Dynamic per-user, per-session rotating keys
• Rogue access point detection and notification
• Secure management interfaces: SNMPv3, SSL and SSH
Self-Forming/Self-Healing Mesh is Easy to Deploy
Ease of deployment and integration with the wired network are critical factors in a successful,
profitable wireless network rollout. ORiNOCO access points excel with key capabilities that
simplify WLAN deployment.
• Self-forming and self-healing ORiNOCO Mesh Creation Protocol automatically routes traffic
through the best path as mesh access points are added or removed from the network
• Tools to speed installation and optimization: automatic channel selection, adjustable transmit
power, external antenna connectors2
• Remote management via SNMP, HTTP and Telnet
Reliable by Design
With over 25 years of experience in the design and manufacture of wireless LANs, Proxim
Wireless understands that service providers and enterprises require the same uptime and
reliability in a wireless network as in a wired network. ORiNOCO access points offer:
• Robust features for metropolitan Wi-Fi and enterprise applications
• Automatic reconfiguration of security policy in the event of power loss
• Dual firmware image support – for rollback in the event of software or
configuration change problems
• Power-over-Ethernet support
• AC Power option for light pole installations3
