Wireless Access Points are the key components of a wireless local area network (WLAN). Wireless APs provide network access to wireless clients such as laptops, PCs, tablet PCs or POS. Each wireless access point is strategically placed in a room, building or warehouse to provide the greatest range and most reliable signal for each wireless client. Many new wireless APs have dual radio configurations and support all three IEEE wireless protocols (WI-FI) 802.11a/b/g to provide the highest level of wireless client compatibility. TIP: Wireless range can be extended by either adding more access points or by replacing the default antennas with high gain wireless patch antennas or omnidirectional wireless antennas.
