Access points may be placed above ceilings or suspended ceilings, allowing antennas to be discreetly placed below
drop ceilings. The UL 2043 rating of the Cisco Aironet 1240AG Series allows the access points to be placed above
ceilings in plenum areas regulated by municipal fire codes. Public access applications such as large hotel buildings
may also present a challenging RF environment; the antenna versatility of the Cisco Aironet 1240AG Series,
together with industry-leading range and coverage, provides reliable performance for the most demanding
environments.

Link-Role Flexibility
Autonomous access points can function as an access point or bridge, whether set up as a single-band or dual-
band platform, allowing each radio to be individually configured as an access point repeater, root bridge, non-root
bridge, or workgroup bridge, enabling a broad array of applications.

Cisco Unified IDS/IPS
This integrated software feature is part of the Cisco Self-Defending Network and is the industry’s first integrated
wired and wireless security solution. When a trusted client acts maliciously, the wired IDS detects the attack and
sends shun requests to Cisco WLAN controllers, which will then disassociate the client device.

Management Frame Protection
This feature provides for the authentication of 802.11 management frames by the wireless network infrastructure.
This allows the network to detect spoofed frames from access points or malicious users impersonating
infrastructure access points. If an access point detects a malicious attack, an incident will be generated by the
access points and reports will be gathered on the Cisco wireless LAN controller, Cisco WCS, or CiscoWorks
WLSE.
