Intelligent Networking Features for a Scalable, Secure Solution
NETGEAR’s ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point sets the standard for next-generation high performance, secure, manageable, reliable wireless local area networks (WLANs). This powerful device provides the ultimate in continuous industry-standard 54 Mbps access to corporate network resources, e-mail, and the Internet for a wireless workforce. Fully compatible with IEEE 802.11g (2.4 GHz), it also can be set for dynamic 108 Mbps 802.11g. In addition, it is backward compatible to preserve your 802.11b-based investments, providing a migration path to higher performance networking. Wireless Distribution System (WDS) supplies wireless point-to-point bridging, point-to-multipoint bridging, and repeater functionality for deployment over large areas. Advanced security features include up to 152-bit Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) data encryption, Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), 802.1x and Virtual Private Network (VPN) pass-through support, and Medium Access Control (MAC) address filtering. NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless Access Point is rated for plenum air spaces.

Security
Complies with industry security standards for wireless data encryption, user authentication, and user authorization. Delivers state-of-the-art WLAN security with 40/64-, 128-, and 152-bit WEP data encryption. WPA provides enhanced, interoperable Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11b wireless networking security. Includes MAC address authentication with 256-user Access Control List (ACL) and VPN pass-through. WPA and 802.1x support enables strong mutual authentication to ensure that only legitimate clients associate with corporate RADIUS servers.

Management
Integrated IEEE 802.3af-based Power over Ethernet (PoE) support eliminates extra cables and the need to locate near a power outlet, as the access point is powered over the Ethernet cable. Supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) MIB I, MIB II, and 802.11 MIB using SNMP-based network management software, such as HP OpenView™. Supports all popular 802.1x port-based authentication protocols, including Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) Transport Layer Security (TLS), Protected EAP (PEAP), and Tunneled TLS (TTLS). Console port facilitates local configuration and monitoring. Users can remotely configure, update, and monitor multiple WG302's simultaneously via FTP.

Aptitude
IEEE 802.11g wireless standard – with optional speeds up to 108 Mbps – takes care of business communications with great dispatch and skill. Delivers functionality for point-to-point and point-to-multi-point bridging and repeater modes. A fourth mode enables the WG302 to act as a bridge and access point simultaneously. Dynamic rate shifting guarantees the fastest possible connections. Auto Network Connect keeps users connected to the network even while roaming.

Usability
Cost effective, simple to install and use. Plenum rated – appropriate for placement above drop-down ceilings and under raised floors. Equipped with convenient Smart Wizard™ browser-based interface. Fitted with two external, detachable 5 dBi antennas – obtain NETGEAR's antenna and flexible point placement accessories separately for expanded wireless capacity and range.
IEEE 802.11e-based Quality of Service (QoS) support is available via firmware upgrade.
