The Cisco® Aironet® 1250 Series is the first enterprise-class access point to support the IEEE 802.11n. 802.11n offers combined data rates of up to 600Mbps to provide users with mobile access to high-bandwidth data, voice, and video applications regardless of their location. Through the use of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, 802.11n also provides reliable and predictable WLAN coverage to improve the end-user experience for both existing 802.11a/b/g clients and 802.11n clients.

The robust Cisco Aironet® 1250 Series Access Point is a modular platform designed to be easily field-upgradeable to support a variety of wireless capabilities. This modularity allows businesses to deploy existing wireless technologies today with the confidence that their network investment will extend to support emerging and future wireless technologies.

The platform was specifically engineered to support the power, throughput, and mechanical requirements of higher-speed WLAN technologies, including 802.11n. Currently, the platform provides both 2.4GHz and 5GHz modules compliant with the IEEE 802.11n standard. As technology evolves, the platform is flexible to support future radio modules designed to deliver intelligent RF services, further enhancing the performance and reliability of the wireless network. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series is a rugged indoor access point designed for both office and challenging RF environments such as factories, warehouses, hospitals and large retail establishments that require the antenna versatility associated with connectorized antennas, a rugged metal enclosure, and a broad operating temperature range. With a Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) interface, the Cisco Aironet 1250 Series delivers line-rate throughput for higher-speed WLAN technologies such as 802.11n. The access point offers the flexibility of inline as well as local power options.

The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series is part of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network is a comprehensive solution that unifies the wired and wireless network to deliver a common set of services and applications, providing users a single experience for any mode of network connectivity, and offering IT simplified operational management. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series integrates seamlessly with the Cisco Unified Wireless Network. It extends the same industry-leading RF and network management capabilities as currently available across the breadth of Cisco wireless solutions.

The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series has two deployment options: controller-based (unified) or standalone (autonomous). Access points using the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) work in conjunction with Cisco wireless LAN controllers and optionally with the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS). When configured with LWAPP, the Cisco Aironet 1250 Series simplifies operations by automatically detecting the best-available Cisco Wireless LAN Controller and downloading appropriate policies and configuration information with no manual intervention. When deployed as a standalone access point, the Cisco Aironet 1250 Series delivers a baseline set of features and can later be software-upgraded to take advantage of the full benefits of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network.
