Aerohive Networks AP121

The Aerohive Networks AP121 is a cost-effective, enterprise-grade (2x2) MIMO solution, ideal for education, healthcare and distributed enterprise environments.

AEROHIVE AP121

802.1n Dual Radio access point

• AEROHIVE NETWORKS AP121 access points provide 2x2:2 802.11n as well as optimized RF performance and enhanced receive sensitivity to provide a ground-breaking user experience for networks supporting multiple types of clients, including consumer-grade and bring-your-own devices (BYOD).
• The Aerohive AP121 is a cost-effective, enterprise-grade 2x2 MIMO solution, which is ideal for education, healthcare, and distributed enterprise environments. With two radios, concurrent 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz access, and security scanning across both bands, the AP121 provides top performance and security at an entry-level price point.
• The AP121 also provides both automatic mesh redundancy and support for 802.11a, b, g and n clients, through Aerohive’s industry unique and resilient Cooperative Control Architecture.
• The Aerohive AP121 shares mounting kits and power supplies with the Aerohive AP330 and AP350, making sparing, re-ordering, stocking, and inventory management seamless.

Key Features and Benefits

• Cooperative control: All Aerohive access points are built upon the deep, feature rich Hive OS operating system. Hive OS is the backbone of the Aerohive Cooperative Control architecture, and allows the access points to organize into groups or “hives” that coordinate advanced features such as layer 2/ layer 3 roaming, cooperative RF management, security information, and mesh networking without requiring a controller. Cooperative Control provides all the benefits of coordinated, next generation Wi-Fi with lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), more reliability, more scalability, higher performance, and with a focus on truly optimizing mobility in a mobile first enterprise.

• High Performance, Secure Wi-Fi with On-Demand Provisioning: The Aerohive AP121 is a 2x2 802.11n access point with integrated features such as RADIUS, 802.1X security, Captive Web Portal, and cloud-based management. By integrating with the Aerohive Cloud Services Platform, the AP121 can be brought online simply by plugging it in. It will automatically find the Hive Manager, either in Aerohive’s public cloud or on a customer premises, download complete configuration, security, and corporate policies, and instantly provide service for connected devices.

• Integrated Application Priority and Control: By using the robust Quality of Service (QoS) and stateful firewall built into Aerohive access points, the AP121 supports optimizing user application experience on the network. Aerohive access points allow an administrator to create customized user profiles based on context, such as identity of the user, device type, location, and time of day, to prioritize or block applications based on what is critical to that particular user. This user-focused approach ensures every user experience is optimized for mobility.

Warranty and Support

• Every Aerohive Networks device is backed by a limited lifetime hardware warranty. Extended product and technical support may be purchased separately and can include next day advanced replacement, 24x7 or 8x5 technical support, web and email support access, and software updates.
