The Cisco Aironet 1142 Controller-based AP (Part Number: AIR-LAP1142-AK9-PR) is a versatile wireless access point designed for use in enterprise environments. Featuring dual-band wireless capabilities, it operates on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies. This allows users to connect devices with high efficiency and minimal interference.
The unit supports the 802.11n Wi-Fi standard, providing data transfer rates up to 300 Mbps, which enhances wireless networking performance compared to older standards. The access point is configured to work in a controller-based environment, meaning that it relies on a central wireless LAN controller for management, improving scalability and simplifying deployment.
