The mini-PCI interface supports either an IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g radio operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. The CardBus interface supports an IEEE 802.11a radio operating in the 5 GHz frequency band. At least one radio must be installed for the access point to operate in a WLAN, and at most, two radios (one of each form factor) can be installed. Cisco Aironet 1200 Series modular access points feature antenna connectors for greater range or coverage versatility using a broad selection of available Cisco antennas, as well as a rugged, metal housing for operation over extended temperature ranges typical of demanding environments. The 802.11g radio delivers industry-leading range and throughput, meeting the performance requirements of industrial and enterprise applications, while hardware-assisted AES encryption provides uncompromised support for interoperable IEEE 802.11i and WPA2 security. While the 802.11g-configured Cisco Aironet 1200 Series meets the needs of many industrial applications, its modular design allows dual radio configuration and field upgradeability so administrators can deploy a wireless network optimized for their evolving requirements. The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series supports Cisco IOS Software and is a component of the Cisco SWAN framework, a comprehensive framework that delivers an integrated, end-to-end wired and wireless network.
