Overview
Motorola Solutions’ family of Access Points and wireless controllers enable the centralized distribution of
high performance, secure and resilient wireless voice and data services to remote locations with the
scalability required to meet the needs of large distributed enterprises.
The AP-6511 Access Point uses a subset of the WING 5 software as an onboard operating system unique to
the Access Point. The WING 5 software resident on the AP-6511 Access Point supports a subset of the
Enterprise class feature set available on RFS4000, RFS6000 and RFS7000 model controllers. The AP-6511
WING 5 software affords the Access Point those features needed to allow the Access Point to function as
an Independent mode “thick” access point suited to hospitality deployments. For more information on the
operating modes unique to the WING 5 supported AP-6511 Access Point, see Web UI Overview on page 2-1.
The WiNG 5 architecture is a solution designed for 802.11n networking. It leverages the best aspects of
independent and dependent architectures to create a smart network that meets the connectivity, quality and
security needs of each user and their applications, based on the availability of network resources including
wired networks. By distributing intelligence and control between the wireless controllers and APs, the WiNG
5 network can route directly via the best path, as determined by factors including the user, the location, the
application and the available wireless and wired resources. WiNG 5 extends the differentiation that adaptive
APs offered to the next level by having the services and security now available at every point in the network.
The traffic flow is optimized to prevent wired congestion as well as wireless congestion. Traffic flows
dynamically, based on user and application, and finds alternate routes to work around any possible network
choke points.
