The 100-mW transmit power and receive sensitivity of the Cisco Aironet 350 Series AP leads the industry in range

and reliability. Antenna diversity and superior delay spread (multipath) characteristics of the Cisco Aironet 350 Series

deliver improved performance even in harsh environments such as warehouses, factories, and metal buildings.

Administrators can configure the radio transmit power (1, 5, 20, 30, 50, and 100 mW) on the Cisco Aironet 350

Series to meet specific coverage requirements and minimize interference. In addition to an AP with two captured 2.2

dBi antennas, an AP with two RP-TNC connectors is offered for more challenging applications, where a broad

portfolio of removable antennas can be used to further increase range and reliability.

To protect the users’ investment, all Cisco Aironet 350 Series APs and bridges feature sufficient Flash memory to

handle future firmware upgrades.

Wireless LAN security is a primary concern. The Cisco Aironet 350 Series secures the enterprise network with a

scalable and manageable system featuring the award-winning Cisco Wireless Security Suite. Based on the 802.1X

standard for port-based network access, the Cisco Wireless Security Suite takes advantage of the Extensible

Authentication Protocol (EAP) framework for user-based authentication (Figure 6).
