RF Excellence
Building on the Cisco Aironet heritage of RF excellence, the Cisco Aironet 1550 Series delivers industry-leading
performance for highly secure and reliable wireless connections. Industrial-grade parts, enterprise-class silicon-
level intelligence, and optimized radios deliver a robust mobility experience. The Cisco Aironet 1550 Series
provides a set of tools that deliver the robust, scalable wireless foundation required to realize the true potential of
outdoor wireless mobility:
●
coverage and throughput to existing clients
●
Radio resource management (RRM) provides automated channel selection and power setting management
of access points
●
Advanced capabilities allow users to select data rates, adjust power, and manage quality of service (QoS)
for access points
Centrally Managed Mesh Network
Central management and troubleshooting of the Cisco outdoor wireless access points prevent costly maintenance
service calls to outdoor locations. The Cisco Prime
™
Network Control System (NCS) works in conjunction with the
Cisco Aironet Access Points and Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers to configure and manage the wireless networks.
With Cisco Prime NCS, network administrators have a single solution for RF prediction, policy provisioning,
network optimization, troubleshooting, security monitoring, and wireless LAN systems management. Cisco
CleanAir technology is integrated into Cisco Prime NCS to provide real-time information on your outdoor network.
Wireless network security is also a part of a unified wired and wireless solution. Cisco
offers the highest level of network security, which helps ensure that data remains private and secure and that the
network is protected from unauthorized access.
802.11n Outdoor Access Point
The 1552WU consists of weather-proof housing, a DC power supply, Cisco and Emerson radio modules, Ethernet
modules, and external antennas. The access point contains a dual Wi-Fi radio system with radios that are
compliant with IEEE 802.11a/n (5-GHz) and 802.11b/g/n (2.4-GHz) standards, respectively. The 1552WU has six
external Wi-Fi antenna connections for three 2.4 GHz and three 5 GHz antennas, providing flexibility to select
differing antenna gain patterns for each band. It has 5 GHz mesh Wi-Fi, Ethernet backhaul options. There is one
antenna connector for a WirelessHART antenna. This access point also has a PoE-out port and can power a video
surveillance camera. A highly flexible model, the Cisco Aironet 1552WU is designed for hazardous environments
like oil and gas refineries, chemical plants, mining pits, and manufacturing factories. The Cisco Aironet 1552WU
Outdoor Access Point is Class 1, Div 2/Zone 2 hazardous location-certified. Lightning arrestors for surge protection
are also supported.
WirelessHART compliant Gateway
The Cisco Aironet 1552WU is a modularized outdoor mesh network access point with an integrated WirelessHART
Gateway. It is configured for three simultaneous radio operations.
●
2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n radio primarily for local Wi-Fi device access
●
5 GHz 802.11a/n radio for wireless backhaul in the mesh
●
2.4 GHz WirelessHART radio for communicating with sensor devices
