The Cisco 1000 Series Lightweight Access Point AIR-AP1030, part number AIR-AP1030-R-K9, is a highly efficient radio access point designed for wireless connectivity within network environments. It supports enterprise-class, scalable deployments due to its lightweight operational model, which relies on a centralised wireless LAN controller. This approach helps reduce standalone configuration or management requirements for individual access points, contributing to the ease of large-scale network administration.
It operates on dual-band frequencies, enabling compatibility with both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless networks. This allows for improved performance and flexibility when managing clients across different frequency bands, optimising for both speed and reduced interference. The unit also supports 802.11a/b/g wireless standards, ensuring robust compatibility with a wide range of legacy and modern Wi-Fi devices.
The AIR-AP1030-R-K9 model is designed with multiple security protocols in mind, supporting WPA, WPA2, and various encryption standards like TKIP and AES, ensuring that connected systems maintain high levels of security. Additionally, it includes advanced features such as QoS (Quality of Service) prioritisation, making it particularly suitable for environments with high-bandwidth, latency-sensitive applications, including voice and video traffic.
With its compact form factor and hardware specifically optimised for lightweight access environments, the Cisco 1000 Series Lightweight Access Point (AIR-AP1030) is designed for reliable wireless coverage in a wide variety of network deployments. It offers support for centralised management models, reducing operational complexity for large-scale wireless access point installations.
