UNMATCHED BANDWIDTH FOR
UNMATCHED NETWORK AND
APPLICATION PERFORMANCE
802.11ac technology builds on advances of 802.11n,
offering up to four times the bandwidth through
additional technology advancements. Multiple-Input
Multiple-Output (MIMO) enables data to be sent in
multiple streams (known as “spatial streams”) to a
single device simultaneously to better utilize bandwidth.
While MIMO exists in both 802.11n and 802.11ac,
the bandwidth per spatial stream is nearly tripled,
increasing from 150Mbps in 802.11n to 433Mbps. In
addition, interference from 2.4 GHz devices is finally
eliminated. Since 802.11ac operates only in the 5 GHz
band, Bluetooth

The
result? Your WLAN can support an unprecedented number
of users and applications — including voice and video —
allowing you to confidently deploy Bring Your Own Device
(BYOD) initiatives as well as empower new workgroups
with mobile devices and new mobile applications.

EASY MIGRATION TO 5TH
GENERATION 802.11ac WI-FI
The dual radio AP 8222 provides the simplest path to
next generation Wi-Fi. The 802.11ac radio readies you
to support new 5 GHz mobile devices, while the 802.11n
radio ensures support for all existing mobile devices —
including 2.4 GHz clients. The radios work together to
allow you to migrate to 802.11ac at your own pace —
and without the high cost of “rip and replace”.

MORE ROBUST WIRELESS CONNECTIONS
Your users will experience a more robust wireless
connection than ever before, thanks to improved
beamforming. Beamforming creates the most efficient
path for data transmission between an access point
and a mobile device. Until today, the transmitting
beamformer worked alone to define this path. Now, the
receiver also assists, a process known as sounding. The
result is a stronger connection that enables faster data
transmission. Application throughput and performance
is improved, along with mobile device battery power.

GAP-FREE SECURITY
The AP 8222 secures all your wireless transmissions,
ensuring compliance with the government or industry
regulations your business may be subjected to, such as
PCI in retail and HIPAA in healthcare. Your network is
protected every second of every day with comprehensive
ensuring compliance with the government or industry
regulations your business may be subjected to, such as

protected every second of every day with comprehensive
integrated security features that include layer 2-7
stateful packet filtering firewall, AAA RADIUS services,
a VPN gateway and location-based access control. In
addition, one of the radios can serve as a dedicated
wireless IPS sensor for around-the-clock rogue detection,
eliminating the need for standalone hardware and
additional power or Ethernet cabling.

VOICE, LOCATIONING AND GUEST ACCESS
The AP 8222 supports Voice over wireless LAN (VoWLAN)
quality of service (QoS), ensuring toll-quality, even with
many simultaneous calls on a single access point. In
addition, you can leverage locationing services to locate
and track people and assets, as well as control network
and application access. And since you can prevent
users from accessing authorized networks, sites and
applications, it’s easy to provide hotspot and guest access.

THE MOTOROLA ADVANTAGE:
A TURBOBOOST FOR PERFORMANCE
AND SUPERIOR SCALABILITY
Since the AP 8222 802.11ac Access Point is part of our
WiNG 5 family of WLAN infrastructure, it is “network
aware”, able to work in concert with all other Motorola
WiNG 5 controllers and access points to define the
route that will enable the fastest and most robust
path for every transmission. And since the AP 8222
can be adopted by our controllers for easy centralized
management, your network is easy to scale. No matter
how many access points and controllers you need, or
where in the world they are located, you can deploy,
monitor, troubleshoot and manage them all from a single
location. No matter how many users you need to support
today or tomorrow, you get the peace of mind that comes
from knowing your network is always ready and waiting.

analytics: provides
visibility into the content
users are requesting to
help determine which
content to cache and for
how long
• One View management:
control and manage local
NX/RFS controllers as
well as the access points
they control, all from a
single NX9500 controller
in the NOC
• VM management:
allows you to use our
NX controllers to host
applications (such as a
firewall, voice gateway,
a POS line of business
