The Cisco Aironet 802.11g Access Point Upgrade Kit, part number AIR-MP21G-A-K9=, is an expansion module designed to upgrade existing Cisco Aironet Access Points from 802.11b to support the 802.11g wireless standard. This upgrade enhances the wireless performance by offering speed improvements and more reliable connections in environments where greater bandwidth is required.
With the installation of this expansion module, your Cisco Aironet Access Point will be capable of supporting wireless transmission rates of up to 54 Mbps using the 2.4 GHz frequency band. The module is compatible with Cisco's Aironet series, allowing existing infrastructure to be upgraded without having to replace the entire access point. This makes it a more economical solution for organisations seeking to extend their network's capabilities.
The Aironet 802.11g standard supported by this kit also provides backward compatibility, meaning the enhanced access point can still communicate with devices that use the older 802.11b standard. By utilising this expansion, network administrators can extend the operational life of their existing wireless hardware while ensuring support for the faster and more reliable 802.11g standard.
In addition, this upgrade kit delivers enhanced security features, supporting modern encryption protocols such as WPA and WPA2, providing better protection for wireless data transmissions. The kit also enables more efficient network management, making it easier for IT teams to oversee and control WiFi access across multiple devices and environments.
