Comprehensive Analysis of WS2000 wireless switch Application Advantages

In a large wireless network, a wireless switch is needed to facilitate allocation. Its smart and powerful management functions make the network run well. Then, we will introduce the features and advantages of WS2000 wireless switches. I hope you can understand it.

WS2000 wired and wireless network package Integration

With WS2000's first-class design package, you no longer need to buy and manage other network devices. Supports multiple wireless LAN protocols, including Wi-Fi, IEEE802.11b, and 802.11a. Supports 802.11 Gbit/s, as well as integrated routers, gateways, and Ethernet power supply (PoE ), simplify network deployment and management and reduce capital expenditures. Its functions include: integrated StatefulPacketInspection firewall, Network Address Translation (NAT), DHCP server, and WAN connection support to flexibly reduce installation costs.

Second-generation wireless LAN: Powerful centralized and intelligent functions

WS2000 provides powerful functionality and economic benefits for the second generation of wireless networks. The WS2000 wireless switch integrates the intelligence of the distribution and replication of the first generation wireless LAN across the entire access point, providing unprecedented powerful functions and control capabilities, and effectively reduces deployment and management costs. WS2000 can be used in combination with low-cost AccessPort. These access ports are truly "zero-configuration" plug-and-play devices that can be used out of the box and can be installed almost anywhere, it is even installed in the ceiling.

End-to-End hierarchical security

WS2000 supports a complete set of security mechanisms, including Access Point Control, 802.1X-based authentication, and enhanced encryption. In addition, WS2000 integrates the StatefulPacketInspection firewall to defend against various "Denial of Service" attacks and filter network traffic within the LAN and between the LAN and WAN. This forms a layered security mode that provides robust end-to-end security. WS2000 supports world-class wireless security standards and can be easily upgraded to future standards.

Centralized Management

WS2000 manages hardware, software configurations, and network policies in a unified manner to simplify daily work. Through centralized management, you can also automatically distribute configurations to all access ports, so that you do not need to configure and manage each access point separately and reduce the associated costs. In addition, WS2000 can simplify wireless network deployment across multiple locations, such as multiple retail stores, hotels, or branches, to provide consistent Network Design and simplify management, you can also perform centralized management from the region Network Operation Center (NOC) or data center.

Scalable and easy to upgrade

Compared with access point-based wireless LAN, it is more convenient to add capacity and new features, and the cost is lower. With WS2000, your WS2000 wireless switch network can be expanded as the company grows. Each WS2000 supports up to 6 access ports and 3 wireless LAN, each of which has its own security and network policies. In addition, with the centralized architecture of WS2000, upgraded to the latest standard, such as the 802.11i security standard, is not only fast but also extremely easy.

Lower total cost of ownership-reliable investment guarantee

WS2000 does not have the system overhead and complexity of the first generation of Wireless LAN Based on access points, and the implementation and management costs of wireless networks are lower. Its wide range of functions, scalability, and centralized management can reduce the time and management costs associated with access point-based solutions, reducing the total cost of ownership. In addition, WS2000 not only supports current and future standards, but also supports traditional wireless networks in the past. This flexibility can make your investment worthwhile. Flexible installation options: WS2000 can be installed on the desktop, wall, or rack. The standard 1RU shape allows WS2000 to be easily installed with other network devices in any standard network rack.

Saves power on client devices

The energy-saving protocol (PSP) Round Robin function maximizes battery life and maintains application performance. This enables devices to save power during wireless transmission and ensure that data packets can be stored and transmitted reliably after the device is awakened.

Virtual AP implements a virtual LAN

Virtual AP can be used to divide a wireless LAN into real wireless peers of multiple broadcast domains EthernetVLAN). Multiple ESSID Extended Service Set Identifiers are mapped to multiple BSSID Basic Service Set Identifiers). The virtual AP can provide comprehensive control over broadcast traffic. It is very important to control the broadcast traffic, including network-level messages, because it has a potential negative impact on performance. Intelligent Control over broadcast forwarding through proxy ARP and other mechanisms ensures that only the target recipient receives broadcast traffic. The decrease in traffic maximizes the bandwidth and network throughput. Because you do not need to process messages sent to other recipients, the service life and overall performance of the device battery have been improved; because broadcast messages are no longer transmitted to wrong recipients, it is no longer possible to reduce the confidentiality and security of messages.

Load Balancing and mandatory roaming

Normal roaming occurs only when the device connection speed reaches the minimum of 1 Mbps. Generally, it will go beyond the boundary of one cell and almost reach the half distance of another adjacent cell. The client load balancing and mandatory roaming functions work simultaneously to ensure that the device is roaming before the connection quality gets worse, providing users with a more consistent connection speed to ensure application performance. WS2000 can provide information required for roaming decision-making to ensure that important WS2000 wireless switch connections, such as real-time voice and data connections, are continuously connected.

Comprehensive WLAN Functions

WS2000 features comprehensive, it can fully control the wireless LAN traffic, provide extraordinary performance. With comprehensive Wireless LAN functions, in today's highly competitive wireless environment, you can maximize bandwidth and throughput, protect network traffic security, prioritize voice traffic, save power on mobile devices, and provide users with reliable connection speeds.

Scalable Radio Architecture

Each WS2000 can support up to 6 single-frequency or dual-frequency access points at a 802.11 GHz or 5 GHz frequency. 802.11b and 802.11a currently follow GB. This provides the industry with the widest technical support for WS2000 wireless switches.

Access Point: Next-generation wireless access device

The access port simplifies the implementation and management of wireless networks, and provides unprecedented upgrade capabilities. This innovative design removes the need for dual computing components and management related to the use of access points across the entire Wireless LAN. You can easily upgrade the access port through the new features of WS2000, and the investment is very guaranteed.
