Benefits
Ceiling-mount design blends into environments
Different from traditional business routers, the slick “smoke detector” ceiling-mount design of ZyXEL
NWA5120 Series provides better coverage and performance. The NWA5120 Series is a PoE AP with
a multifunction design that solves all problems by offering internal as well as external antennas to
enhance wireless performance and to eliminate coverage dead spots. Moreover, the signal outputs have
been fine-tuned to provide easy RF planning and excellent signal coverage especially for hospitality and
education environments.

Effortless conversion from standalone to centrally-managed
The ZyXEL NWA5120 Series Unified APs can be configured as a fully functional standalone AP and also
capable to work with Wireless LAN Controller to form a robust controller-based WLAN solution with
centralized management when Wi-Fi demand grows, as well as auto AP provisioning over both LAN and
WAN connections. After being installed and powered on, the APs automatically look for the Wireless LAN
Controller and establish connections. Utilizing the CAPWAP protocol, connections can be established
between the controller and APs without needing to change the existing LAN infrastructure.
