Wireless SMC2552W-G2
EliteConnect™ 2.4GHz 802.11g Wireless Access Point
www.smc.com
The EliteConnect™ 2.4GHz 802.11g Wireless Access Point (SMC2552W-G2)
provides a secure and high-performance enterprise class wireless LAN
supporting up to 64 users. The reliability, security, and manageability of
the SMC2552W-G2 make it an ideal solution for any organization looking
to satisfy its workforce’s mobile computing needs.
New features included in the new SMC2555W-AG2 include Multiple SSID
support, Wireless Distribution System (WDS), VLAN tagging, and Wireless
Multimedia (WMM) support. Multiple SSID’s allow you to create virtual
access points with one physical unit. You can set different encryption
schemes and VLAN ID’s per SSID which allows for segmentation of user
groups and policies. WDS support enables repeating functionality
between other SMC enterprise access points or bridges. Wireless repeating
is an alternative to extending your wireless coverage without the need to
run Ethernet cables.
Wireless LAN security is a main concern in enterprise deployment. The
EliteConnect™ 2.4GHz 802.11g Wireless Access Point provides enterprise
level advanced authentication and encryption security features. Security
features include the new Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2), up to
152-bit WEP encryption, AES, 802.1x authentication access control with
key rotation (MD5, EAP-TLS per user per session key, EAP-TTLS per user
per session key, session key and broadcast key rotation, and PEAP), sup-
port for FUNK Odyssey and Microsoft RADIUS Server, up to 1024 MAC
address authentication, disabled SSID broadcast, and up to 64 virtual
LANs (VLANs) through 802.1x.
The new SMC2552W-G2 also has flexible management features. Web-
based network management tools make configuration and remote man-
agement of the network simple. IT professionals can also use Command
Line Interface (CLI) to quickly and easily manage the device, along with
telnet and SSH. In addition, SMC Networks EliteView Management
Software and SNMP (v1, 2c, 3) support in the SMC2552W-G2 allows for
easy integration of your wireless LAN with your wired infrastructure.
Other management features include Syslog and Event Logging.
If extended range is required, users can choose among the wide selection
of SMC 2.4GHz High Gain Antennas. SMC2552W-G2 comes with detach-
able antennas with R-SMA connectors for optional 2.4GHz High Gain
Antenna for extended range and coverage. The new enterprise level
802.11g Wireless Access Point supports Power over Ethernet that adheres
to 802.3af standard. Power over Ethernet support reduces installation
cost by using standard Category 5 cable to provide power to the Access
Point. In addition, SMC2552W-G2 provides anti-theft mechanism by inte-
grating a Kensington security slot on the device. All of the above make
SMC2552W-G2 a perfect solution with unparalleled flexibility and invest-
ment protection for your wireless LAN deployment.
FEATURES
IEEE802.11b, and 802.11g compliant
Flexible management features
Detachable antennas
Enterprise level of authentication and encryption security
Quality of Service Support
Power over Ethernet support
BENEFITS
OVERVIEW
Simultaneous support of IEEE802.11b, and 802.11g wireless clients.
IEEE802.11b/g compliance allows for seamless interoperation among
multiple vendors
Flexible network management through CLI, Web, Telnet, SSH, TFTP,
SNMP make it simple and easy to monitor, troubleshoot, and
view event logging
Optional use of SMC’s 2.4GHz High Gain Antenna for extended range
and coverage
Enterprise class security features including the new WPA2, up to
152-bit WEP encryption, AES, 802.1x authentication and dynamic
key management, ACLs, up to 1024 MAC address authentication,
and disabled SSID broadcast
The access point implements QoS using the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)
standard. WMM employs techniques that are a subset of the developing
IEEE 802.11e QoS standard.
PoE Reduces installation cost by using standard Cat. 5 cable to
provide power and data to the Access Point
