About the AP3935i and AP3935e

AP3935 Overview

Architectural Features

This installation guide provides an overview and installation instructions for the ExtremeWireless Access

Points AP3935i and AP3935e.

About the AP3935i and AP3935e

The AP3935 is designed to extend your Wireless LAN around indoor locations. The AP3935 supports

the 802.11ac and 802.11n wireless standards, with full backward compatibility with legacy 802.11a, and

802.11b/g devices.

The AP3935 interoperates fully with Wireless LANs, including support for VoWLAN, branch oce mode,

guest services, RTLS, availability, and mobility features. The operating temperature: 0 - 50C.

The AP3935i and AP3935e have the following features in common:

•Both support two MIMO 4x4 (up to four 802.11ac spatial streams).

•They provide two single band radios for dual-band, concurrent operation, optimized for indoor

antenna coverage:

•5 GHz (Radio 1) in any of the following modes: IEEE802.11ac, a/b/g and/or n

•2.4 GHz (Radio 2) in any of the following modes: IEEE802.11ac, a/b/g and/or n

•They are enclosed in a rectangular, compact case.

•Both models can be mounted on walls and drop/suspended ceilings.

•They provide 80 MHz Bandwidth at 2.4/5 GHz operation (Channel Bonding).

•Power is provided through two Ethernet ports (LAN port). This is the preferred method of powering

the AP on ceiling and wall installations. The AP3935 can also be powered by an external DC power

supply by plugging the supply’s input jack into the DC-In port.

Note

The AP3935 comes in two models: the AP3935i has 8 internal single-band antennas while the

AP3935e has 8 external RSMA connectors for connecting external antennas. Within this

document, any reference to AP3935 applies to both models.

AP3935 Overview

The AP3935 access point is available in two models:

•AP3935i contains eight internal single-band antennas

•AP3935e contains eight external RSMA connectors for optional external antennas, for greater range

and coverage versatility
