SonicWALL Access Points - SonicPoints

 SonicPoints are tri-mode, dual band, dual radio, IEEE 802.11a/b/g compliant, satellite access points that provide secure mobility and wireless LAN connectivity for users on the network. SonicPoints require no pre-configuration as they’re centrally configured and managed by any SonicWALL security appliance. Utilizing SonicWALL’s Distributed Wireless Architecture, SonicPoints deliver features such as wireless intrusion detection, wireless firewalling, secure wireless roaming, and Wireless Guest Services (WGS). SonicPoints are plenum rated and can receive power over Ethernet (PoE) from SonicWALL’s IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE Injector or a third-party IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE device to aid in convenient deployment of SonicPoints in any network.

SonicWALL makes distributed wireless networking secure, simple and cost-effective with the first total security solution to integrate universal 802.11a/b/g wireless with an enterprise-class firewall/VPN gateway. SonicWALL’s innovative Distributed Wireless Solution scales to virtually any network deployment, whether you’re adding wireless into an existing network infrastructure or creating a new wireless network from the ground up.

Larger companies can take advantage of SonicWALL’s trusted wireless security functionality by deploying SonicPoints™ throughout any network. SonicPoints–IEEE 802.11a/b/g satellite access points–provide secure wireless LAN connectivity for users on the network. SonicPoints require no pre-configuration, as they are centrally configured, managed, and updated by any SonicWALL network security appliance.

SonicWALL’s new wireless solution is built around their award-winning line of network security appliances. Within a large office building, network administrators can deploy the appropriate SonicWALL network security appliance as the gateway device, then simply distribute SonicPoints at optimal locations throughout the building, allowing employees to seamlessly roam. This eliminates the need for a separate wireless appliance at the network perimeter, providing airtight wireless mobility for employees, as well as secure Internet access for guests.

The business benefits of wireless are plentiful. By selecting a SonicWALL wireless platform, you can reap the rewards of a more productive and mobile workforce while protecting information assets with powerful, proven security.
