Wireless LAN Switch

Key Feature

Data Sheet

The WLS-1280 is a Wireless LAN Switch dedicatedly designed for small /

medium-scale network environment. It enables administrators to effectively

manage different categories of users based on self-defined policies. There

is no need to change any configuration for client devices. The simplified

deployment and administration eases the integration into existing wired

and wireless networks.

With the Access Point (AP) management functions, the WLS-1280 is able

to aggregate up to 12 controlled Access Points. The administrator can

discover, configure, copy from template, update, and monitor all managed

the APs from one single secured interface. Such design avoids the need to

configure the devices one by one.

The WLS-1280 also provides the comprehensive security features. The

authorized end-to-end communication for both wired and wireless

network can prevent anonymous users to occupy the valuable bandwidth.

The local VPN termination with client approach offers the highest level of

wireless security without any hassle.
