does not include a console port. The Cisco Aironet 1100 Series supports operations as a
workgroup bridge; the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series does not.

How does the range of the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series compare to the range of the

Cisco Aironet 1100 Series?

The access point’s performance is dependent upon many factors, including the radio and

antenna design and the quality of the signals sent and received. Therefore, performance will

vary with the unique environmental conditions under which the access points operate. In most

cases, customer should experience greater range with the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series than

with the Cisco Aironet 1100 Series (for 802.11g rates).

Which IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN standards does the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series

support?

The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series supports the IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and

802.11i/WPA2 standards. For more information, please visit:

Is the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series compliant with the 802.3af standard for inline

power?

Yes. The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is compliant with IEEE 802.3af. The Cisco Aironet

1130AG Series is also compliant with Cisco prestandard Power over Ethernet (PoE). The

Cisco Inline Power switch port must be capable of supplying at least 15.4W of power on the

port, with at least 12.95W delivered to the powered devices.

What are the inline power requirements for the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series?

The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard, as well as

Cisco prestandard PoE. It draws approximately 12.95W from an inline power source, so it

requires a power source capable of providing this amount of power. While all 802.3af-

compliant power-sourcing equipment (PSE) is capable of providing 12.95W to the powered

device, not all Cisco PSE can provide this amount of power. If using Cisco PSE, check the

documentation for its inline power-sourcing capabilities.

Is the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series WPA2-compliant?

Yes. The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is WPA2-compliant. WPA2 is the second generation

of WPA specified by the Wi-Fi Alliance industry organization, and is based on the IEEE

802.11i standard for wireless LAN security. The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is backward-

compatible with clients certified for the first-generation WPA (which provided security

enhancements to the Wired Equivalent Privacy [WEP] algorithm), as well as with clients

certified for the original WEP security.

What client devices are compatible with the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series?

The Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series is interoperable with any 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g Wi-

Fi-certified client. Cisco clients and third-party Cisco Compatible clients and devices are

interoperable with the Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series while also providing the enhanced

wireless security and mobility inherent in a Cisco wireless LAN solution.
