■ dual-radio design with IEEE 802.11b/g and IEEE 802.11a/b/g radios
■ supports up to 16 Service Set IDentifier (SSID) interfaces
■ independent security and VLAN settings per SSID interface
■ supports up to 256 wireless stations per radio interface
■ IEEE 802.11a/b/g compliant – interoperable with multiple vendors
■ precise control over signal transmission power and data rate
■ advanced security through 64/128/152-bit WEP encryption, Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA and WPA2), IEEE 802.1X, remote authentication
via a RADIUS server, and MAC address filtering features to protect your
sensitive data and authenticate only authorized users to your network
■ remote logging of system messages
■ time synchronization via SNTP server for message logs

■ neighbor access point detection
■ Quality of Service (QoS) support through Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) and
Spectralink Voice Priority (SVP)
■ secured authentication of wireless clients through the client’s Web
browser
■ Adaptive Transmit Power Control, to minimize same-channel interference
and maximize channel coverage
■ support for SNMP audible client/PROBE requests (requires PMM 2.0)
■ support for automatic configuration of a group of Access Point 530s
