Cisco Aironet 2800 Series Access Points (discontinued)

Cisco Meraki MR

We are using OmniAccess Points for Indoor as well as Outdoor purposes. Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Access Points give benefits like Flexibility, security and performance. By Benefits, I mean to say having flexibility from deployment point of view. From security, mean to say AP support RF Protect for integrated wireless IPS. At Last, from performance point of view we have application awareness, traffic classification, etc.

Product Usage

Pros and Cons

Flexibility in terms of deployment, management
Better security feature
Application awareness ,WIPS
DPSK
Better client associated count

Things done well

No of Interfaces
must have a variety in terms of MIMO
better throughput

Things done poorly

One of best use cases for using OmniAccess Wire Access Point is where we have dense no. of users as client associated capacity is very good. Also one of the use case is when administrator wants different PSK for each user for authentication. OmniAccess WAP supports in better way.

Flexibility regarding management
Security
Performance
Smooth Roaming

Most Important Features 3.4.21

Better Roaming
Ease of Management
Better performance

Return on Investment

Have used Cisco Meraki access point earlier having management on cloud and is on license (subscription basis). But Alcatel OmniAccess Points have management on cloud, on premise as well which means to say flexibility in terms of management. We had one requirement where we number of user is large which is going to connect on access point but Cisco Meraki only supports 200 users per radio whereas OmniAccess point have better client associated capacity with 524 per radio.
