Valley Cottage, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/24/2016 -- A Wi-Fi access point (AP) is a special purpose communication device in WLAN deployment which enables connection between wireless devices and wired network using Wi-Fi. APs are also the key enablers of WLAN deployment by establishing connections among different users in a WLAN. APs play a crucial role in providing highly reliable and secure wireless connection.

The Gigabit Wi-Fi access point (802.11ac standard) is the latest device in this segment. It is capable of offering high speed wireless data sharing at multi gigabit speeds. Gigabit AP is rapidly emerging as the replacement of its predecessor standards, such as 802.11n, for WLAN deployment due to its promising speeds of up to 7 Gbps and operating frequency band of 5 GHz.

Factors such as increasing demand for high speed Wi-Fi connectivity and prevailing use of laptops, tablets and smartphones for connecting to corporate networks, is driving the adoption of WLAN deployment, which in turn is fuelling the demand of high end access points.

Gigabit Wi-Fi Access Point Market: Drivers and Restraint

Gigabit Wi-Fi access points offers several advantages including high data transfer rates up to the 7 Gbps, a cable free environment and less power consumption, thus reducing cost to a greater extent. Moreover, it guarantees utmost accuracy and security in transferring data, supporting all three wireless frequency bands, to access existing Wi-Fi devices.
