The Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess® Stellar AP1251 is a high-performance 802.11ac Wave 2 outdoor access point for businesses of all sizes. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 outdoor WLAN access point offers high throughput and a seamless user environment.The high-performance and robust AP1251 supports the IP67 standard for difficult outdoor environments, such as high and low temperatures, continuous humidity and constant rainfall. The electrical interfaces are equipped with an industrial-strength overvoltage protection. The AP1251 supports a maximum simultaneous data rate of 1.267 Gbps (867 Mbps at 5 GHz and 400 Mbps at 2.4 GHz). With two GigabitEthernet connections and built-in omnidirectional antennas, the AP1251 is ideal for medium-density outdoor environments.Optimized wireless technology with RF Radio Dynamic Adjustment, distributed wireless architecture, secure unified access network access control, and integrated application intelligence and analysis capabilities make it ideal for businesses of all sizes who need a simple, secure, and scalable wireless solution.Easily deploy enterprise-class security and scalabilityOmniAccess Stellar provides a visionary distributed WLAN architecture with centralized management and policy control that enforces network security from the start and enables unprecedented scale of network capacity. This architecture is critical to the next generation of digital businesses that need business agility, end-to-end mobility, and a secure IoT-enabled infrastructure to drive their business transformation through continuous innovation.OmniAccess Stellar offers more security through WPA3, a new security standard for corporate and public networks. This standard improves enterprise WLAN security through complex security algorithms and stronger encryption, including a 192-bit security suite. OmniAccess Stellar also secures privacy in open, unprotected networks thanks to encryption according to the new security standard Wi-Fi Enhanced Open, which is based on opportunistic wireless encryption (OWE).Managed deployment with OmniVista 2500The OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 can be managed using the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® 2500 Network Management System. The access points are managed as one or more access point (AP) groups (a logical grouping of one or more access points). The next-generation OmniVista 2500 management suite integrates a visionary, controller-less architecture, providing easy-to-use unified access workflows along with an integrated authentication manager based on a unified policy (UPAM). This supports the adoption of an authentication strategy and policy enforcement for employees, guests, and BYOD endpoints. The AP1251 has built-in DPI technology that enables real-time classification of application-level data streams. The network administrator can obtain a comprehensive view of the applications running on the network and apply appropriate controls that optimize the performance of the network for mission-critical applications. OmniVista 2500 provides advanced RF management options, WDS/WIPS for intrusion detection and prevention, and a heat map for site-wide WLAN planning.Plug-and-Play: Secure Web-managed (HTTPS) cluster deploymentThe OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 runs as standard in a cluster environment to enable plug-and-play deployments. Access Point clusters are autonomous systems consisting of a group of OmniAccess Stellar APs and a virtual controller (a specific access point) for cluster management. A single AP cluster supports up to 256 APs.The Access Point cluster architecture ensures simplified and rapid deployment. After the first AP is configured through the Configuration Wizard, the remaining APs on the network will automatically receive an updated configuration. This ensures that the entire network is set up and operational in minutes. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 also supports zero-touch deployments with Alcatel-Lucent OXO Connect R2. In this procedure, all access points in a cluster receive the bootstrap data securely through a local OXO Connect platformIntegrated guest managementThe OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 supports role-based management access to the AP cluster, including administrator, display, and GuestOperator access. GuestOperatorAccess simplifies the creation and management of guest accounts and can be used by non-IT staff, such as front desk staff. The OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 Access point also supports an integrated and customizable captive portal that allows customers to provide special guest access.Quality of Service (QoS) for Unified Communication appsThe OmniAccess Stellar AP1251 Access point supports detailed Quality of Service (QoS) parameters for differentiating and providing the right Quality of Service (QoS) for each application, such as voice, video, and desktop sharing. Application-oriented RF scanning prevents interruptions to real-time applications.RF managementRadio Dynamic Adjustment (RDA) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings
