1240G Series Access Points provide single-band 802.11g wireless
connectivity for challenging RF environments such as factories, warehouses, and large
retail establishments (Figure 1). Connectorized antennas, a rugged metal enclosure,
and a broad operating temperature range offer extended range and coverage versatility.
The Cisco Aironet 1240G Series provides local as well as inline power, including support
for IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE).

The Cisco Aironet 1240G Series is a component of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, a
comprehensive solution that delivers an integrated, end-to-end wired and wireless network.
Using the radio and network management features of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network for
simplified deployment, the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series extends the security, scalability, reliability,
ease of deployment, and manageability available in wired networks to the wireless LAN (WLAN).
The Cisco Aironet 1240G Series is available in two versions: unified or autonomous. Unified
access points operate with the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) and work in
conjunction with Cisco wireless LAN controllers and the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS).
When configured with LWAPP, the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series can automatically detect the best-
available Cisco wireless LAN controller and download appropriate policies and configuration
information with no manual intervention. Autonomous access points are based on Cisco IOS
®
Software and can optionally operate with the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine (WLSE).
Autonomous access points, along with the CiscoWorks WLSE, deliver a core set of features and
can be field-upgraded to take full advantage of the benefits of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network
as requirements evolve.
