Flexible Deployment Options
Cisco Aironet 1000 Series Lightweight Access Points come equipped with internal 2.4 and 5GHz
radios and sectorized antennas, with the 1020 and 1030 models supporting RP-TNC connectors to
connect optional external antennas. Cisco Aironet 1000 Series Lightweight Access Points are also
available with a single 2.4 GHz radio, for installations where 5 GHz is not allowed due to regulatory
restrictions. Multimode 802.11 a/b/g access points provide maximum deployment flexibility and
investment protection. In addition, all models are UL 2043 rated to accommodate nearly all
building deployment scenarios, such as installation in plenum air spaces. These devices support
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) and auto MDI/MDIX, and offer standards-based, “over
the air” quality of service (QoS), providing additional deployment flexibility. Using the Lightweight
Access Point Protocol (LWAPP), Cisco lightweight access points can automatically detect the best
available Cisco wireless LAN controller and download appropriate policies and configuration
information with no hands-on intervention.
The Cisco Aironet 1000 Series consists of three access points each featuring dual 2.4 and 5 GHz
radios supporting 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g. In addition it is available with a single 2.4 GHz
radio that supports 802.11g and 802.11b, for installations where 5 GHz is not allowed due to
regulatory restrictions. All interoperate with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers and the Wireless
Control System management tool. Each are optimized for different application scenarios:
The AP1010 features dual integrated sector antennas. It’s designed for offices and similar
environments providing easy deployment and a predictable coverage pattern.
The AP1020 features both integrated sector antennas and an RP-TNC connector for external
antennas. By selecting from a wide range of Cisco antennas, customers can achieve a variety of
coverage shapes and sizes. Designed for more challenging RF environments, the AP1020
provides a high degree of installation flexibility.
