  • High speed (54 Mbps) IEEE 802.11g support: allows for selecting either IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11g with fallback support for 802.11b; requires ProCurve 802.11g Access Point Card 170wl
  • Investment protection: the 520wl dual-slot, cardbus architecture provides users with the ability to support simultaneous, tri-mode (802.11 a, b, and g) operation by simply adding the appropriate ProCurve Access Point card NEW!
  • Secure mobility NEW!:
    • 802.1X port-based access control: secure yet flexible user authentication safeguards access to the wireless network; 802.1X support includes MD5, TLS, TTLS, and PEAP
    • Enhanced encryption management: per user/ per session dynamic WEP key assignment and automatic key replacement significantly enhances wireless data privacy*
    • 16 VLAN and SSID support per radio card: 802.1Q compliant VLAN assignment based on SSID association controls user access to network resources*
    • Wi-Fi Protected Access™: combines 802.1X user authentication with enhanced, industry-compatible encryption (TKIP) to secure network access and wireless data traffic*
    • Unauthorized access point detection (rogue AP): The access point employs both active and passive scanning to detect and report all active access points operating within range of the access point. Data from each scan is stored in the access point, available for query or sent to a management console using SNMP traps. Between user-configurable wireless network scans, SNMP traps are immediately generated upon detection of a new access point.**
  • Wireless (bridge) access point repeating: up to six wireless links are supported in each access point 520wl, with two configurations possible:
    • Single-radio configuration—supports wireless traffic to additional wireless bridge relay 520wl access points and local wireless clients within the cell
    • Dual-radio configuration—one radio supports wireless traffic to other wireless bridge relay 520wl access points; the second radio supports local wireless clients within the cell
    • Wireless bridging supported on IEEE 802.11a, -b, and -g ProCurve Access Point radios
  • Auto Channel Select (ACS): Tests available channels and selects one based on signal strength. The available channel range is set by the regulatory agency responsible for your geographic region. The Access Point 520wl scans appropriate channels and selects the radio frequency channel with the best signal-to-noise ratio (in other words, signal strength).
  • Local wireless bridge filter: when enabled, prevents communication between wireless devices associated with the same access point NEW!
  • Adjustable output power: controls cell size for high-density deployments NEW!*
  • External antenna connector: supports ProCurve family of 2.4 GHz wireless LAN external antennas and accessories to enhance wireless LAN deployments NEW!
  • Dual flash images: enables auto-recovery upon unsuccessful access point software download
  • Remote configuration and management: SNMPv3 and SSL protects unauthorized access to the management interface NEW!
  • Quality of service: support for quality of service protocol on Spectralink-based applications ***
  • Software updates: free downloads are available from the Web
  • Lifetime warranty: for as long as you own the product with next-business-day advance replacement (available in most countries)
* Feature requires use of ProCurve 802.11g Access Point Card 170wl.
** Feature requires use of ProCurve 802.11a Access Point Card 170wl or 802.11g Access Point Card 170wl.
*** Feature requires use of ProCurve 802.11b Access Point Card 150wl.
