Access Point
Access Point (AP) refers to Symbol’s Spectrum24 Ethernet 
Access Point. It is a piece of communications equipment 
that manages communications between the host computer 
system and one or more wireless terminals. An AP connects 
to a wired Ethernet LAN and acts as a bridge between the 
Ethernet wired network and IEEE 802.11 interoperable 
radio-equipped mobile units, such as a mobile computer. 
The AP allows a mobile user to roam freely through a 
facility while maintaining a seamless connection to the 
wired network.
