The Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess® Stellar AP1311 WLAN Access Point (AP) with 802.11ax technology enables faster speeds, more capacity, and efficient airtime allocation for clients on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands. Wi-Fi 6 technology offers better Wi-Fi service in higher density areas, delivers more capacity for bandwidth-hungry and latency-sensitive voice and video clients, and provides a dependable secure network for Internet of Things (IoT) devices while improving their battery powered lifespan. The OmniAccess Stellar WLAN portfolio brings unparalleled experience in connectivity, coverage, and performance for modern IoT connected enterprises.
The 802.11ax high performance OmniAccess Stellar AP1311 is designed to accommodate the diverse and growing capacity needs of next generation mobility and IoT-enabled networks. These APs are powered with four built-in radios, dual radios 2.4 GHz/5 GHz band serving high density Wi-Fi clients, one full band radio dedicated for scanning, which can inherently improve network security and Wi-Fi quality, and an integrated Bluetooth/Zi GbEe radio enabling location and building automation services. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1311 series supports a maximum aggregate data rate of ~1.77 Gb/s (1.2 Gb/s in 5 GHz and 573 Mb/s in 2.4 GHz). To support this higher capacity the access point can distribute loads across dual gigabit uplinks.
The OmniAccess Stellar AP1311 supports 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) features, which include OFDMA, DL MU-MIMO, 1024-QAM modulation and more, making tomorrow's diverse digital workspaces highly reliable and efficient.
The OmniAccess Stellar AP1311 features enhanced WLAN technology with RF Radio Dynamic Adjustment, a distributed control Wi-Fi architecture, secure network admission control with Unified Access, built-in application intelligence and analytics; this makes it ideal for enterprises of all sizes that demand a simple, secure and scalable wireless solution.
802.11 ax (Wi-Fi 6) high efficiency features
IEEE 802.11ax allows enterprises to deliver high performance wireless LAN services with increased throughput, enabling more clients in dense environments and bringing power efficiency to IoT devices, while it remains fully backward compatible with existing 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac deployments. The 802.11ax standard is a dramatic step forward in wireless LAN technology for all organizations. Some of the key 802.11ax features enabled in the OmniAccess Stellar AP1311 include:
- Orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) enabling more clients to simultaneously operate in the same channel and thereby improving efficiency, latency, and throughput. OFDMA can concurrently address multiple clients in both directions downlink (DL) and uplink (UL), including OFDMA Resource Units (RUs). OFDMA is very effective in environments where there are many devices with short frames demanding lower latency.
- Multi-user multiple input, multiple output (MU-MIMO) allowing more data to be transferred at once and enabling an access point to handle a larger number of concurrent clients
- 1024 quadrature amplitude modulation mode (1024-QAM) boosting peak data-rates by as much as 25 percent.
- BSS Coloring improving spatial reuse in dense environments by providing a mechanism for color coding different overlapping BSS's, allowing more simultaneous transmissions
- Extended Range (ER) provides increased coverage in scenarios where the receiving side encounters high path loss and channel delay spread, especially in outdoor environments
