Access Point  AP22 and Smart Switch

The Instant On AP22 works effectively with smart switches to enhance network performance and management. Here’s how it integrates with smart switches:

Network Integration

The Instant On AP22 connects to a smart switch to extend both wired and wireless network capabilities. This integration allows the AP22 to distribute internet connectivity efficiently throughout a space, leveraging the switch to manage traffic and optimize performance.

Power over Ethernet (PoE)

The AP22 supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), which means it can receive both power and data through a single Ethernet cable connected to a PoE-enabled smart switch. This simplifies installation by reducing the need for additional power sources and cables.

VLAN Support

Smart switches often support Virtual LANs (VLANs), which can segregate network traffic for improved performance and security. The AP22 can be configured to work with these VLANs, allowing you to create separate networks for different types of traffic, such as separating guest Wi-Fi from business-critical applications.

Traffic Management

Smart switches often have Quality of Service (QoS) features to prioritize network traffic. When used with the AP22, the smart switch can manage and prioritize different types of traffic, ensuring that high-bandwidth activities like video streaming or VoIP calls receive the necessary bandwidth and low latency.

Centralized Management

Both the AP22 and the smart switch can be managed through centralized network management tools, such as the Instant On mobile app or web portal. This allows for easy configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of the entire network, providing a streamlined approach to network management.

Enhanced Security

Integrating the AP22 with a smart switch enhances network security. For example, you can use the smart switch to set up VLANs that isolate guest network traffic from sensitive business data, and the AP22 will adhere to these security protocols to protect network integrity.

Scalability

As your network grows, the AP22 and smart switch combination allows for easy scalability. You can add more AP22 units or other network devices without significant reconfiguration, as the smart switch can handle additional traffic and manage multiple access points efficiently.

The Instant On AP22 works with smart switches to provide a comprehensive and scalable network solution. By leveraging PoE, VLAN support, traffic management, and centralized management, this setup ensures robust performance, efficient traffic handling, and enhanced security for various network environments.
