Applications
Designed for rugged environments and installations that require antenna versatility, the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series
features antenna connectors for extended range or coverage versatility and more flexible installation options.
Manufacturing applications, for example, can place WLANs in hazardous locations and remotely place antennas in
those locations while securing the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series Access Points.
The metal housing and industrial-grade components of the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series provide the ruggedness and
extended operating temperature range required in factories, warehouses, “big box” retail environments, and similar
facilities. High transmit power, receive sensitivity, and delay spread for 2.4-GHz radios provide the long range and
large coverage area consistent with these applications. Access points can be placed above ceilings or suspended
ceilings, allowing antennas to be discreetly placed below drop ceilings. The UL 2043 rating of the Cisco Aironet
1240G Series allows for placement of the access points above ceilings in plenum areas regulated by municipal fire
codes. Public access applications such as large hotel buildings can also present a challenging RF environment; the
antenna versatility of the Cisco Aironet 1240G Series, together with industry-leading range and coverage, provides
reliable performance for the most demanding environments.
