The Cisco Aironet AIR-LAP3502I-x-K9 belongs to Cisco Aironet 3500 Series lightweight indoor access points, also known as LAP (Lightweight Access Point). It operates exclusively under CAPWAP management by a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller anddoes not support autonomous standalone mode.
Compliant with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n standards, it supports concurrent dual-band transmission on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands. Adopting 2×3 MIMO architecture with two spatial streams, it achieves a maximum aggregate wireless throughput up to 300 Mbps.
The AIR-LAP3502I-x-K9 is equipped with built-in integrated omnidirectional dual-band internal antennas without external antenna ports, enabling clean and simplified ceiling or wall deployment without extra antenna cabling.
This model features industry-leading Cisco CleanAir Spectrum Intelligence technology, which detects, classifies, locates and mitigates non-Wi-Fi RF interference to build self-healing and self-optimizing enterprise Wi-Fi networks. Cisco ClientLink optimizes connectivity quality for older legacy Wi-Fi clients.
It comes with one 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet port and one RJ45 console management port. Power supply supports IEEE 802.3af PoE, no requirement for PoE+.
Comprehensive enterprise security features are supported, including WPA/WPA2, AES encryption, TKIP, 802.1X authentication and multiple EAP authentication suites. It supports standard ceiling rail mounting and wall mounting brackets. Widely deployed in corporate offices, education campuses and medium-density indoor wireless environments.
The suffix "x" in AIR-LAP3502I-x-K9 represents different regional regulatory domains to comply with local radio frequency regulations.
