• Industrial access point for automation and control
• High availability and WLAN redundancy through two radio modules
• 5-fold redundant power supply
• Access point and access client in one device

The industrial access point LANCOM XAP-40-2 meets all of the demands that industrial settings place on wireless LAN. It features a robust metal housing which is suitable for tophat rail or wall mounting. It is equipped to ensure high availability and redundancy and includes dual LAN ports which can both be fed by Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af). Three further power sources can be used as well: 12V DC and two-times 24V DC. Operational reliability is assured over an extended temperature range of -20 ºto +50º which, being achieved without the use of a heater, ensures that power consumption is low.

Each WLAN module has two RP-SMA antenna connectors which are suitable for any of the LANCOM Systems range of AirLancer Extender antennas. This range of products includes polarization diversity antennas which ensure stable connections in industrial settings.

More Flexibility

Two integrated wireless-LAN modules can be set to 2.4 GHz (802.11b/g) or 5 GHz (802.11a/h) and offer you the full range of options in setting up wireless LAN networks. High availability is achieved by using the WLAN modules redundantly. These can also be used for WLAN relay or in a WDS (Wireless Distribution System).

More Security

Maximum security is guaranteed by the integrated firewall and the full range of protective mechanisms for WLAN, including IEEE 802.11i with IEEE 802.1x authentication, WLAN filters and LEPS. Further features are fast roaming, rogue AP detection, and QoS compliant with IEEE 802.11e, all of which satisfy the very latest demands of wireless LANs.

More Management

A network management system is included with the package. It has all of the features necessary for operating a professional network, including functions for commissioning, configuring and managing an access point, and rogue AP detection. In addition to that, the LANCOM Enterprise Management System provides a server-based system suitable for use in large networks.

What’s more...

To complete the WLAN portfolio, LANCOM also offers suitable AirLancer client adapters and a large selection of high-end antennas for professional indoor and outdoor applications.
