1 Introduction

1.1 Ericsson Wi-Fi

Ericsson’s Wi-Fi product portfolio supports the vision of providing seamless, high- quality user experience regardless of location or device. Within the heterogeneous networks of the future, the effective use of unlicensed Wi-Fi spectrum will be a critical augmentation of the carriers’ licensed spectrum.

The access point portfolio provides a broad set of options for diverse location, power and backhaul scenarios, giving carriers the flexibility they need to add capacity wherever needed. The Wi-Fi Controller product enables user mobility between access points and between technologies. The Wi-Fi Manager and Wi-Fi Business Analyzer products provide carriers with the tools they need to ensure operational efficiency.

1.2 AP 5100 Series

The AP 5100 series of Ericsson Wi-Fi Access Points are cost-effective ruggedized, outdoor products optimized for carrier-grade Wi-Fi coverage in the following deployment scenarios:

• Service provider hot zones

• 3G and 4G network offload

• Stadiums and large outdoor venues

• Campus

• Public safety

Together with other product series within the Ericsson Wi-Fi portfolio, the AP 5100Series provides a cost-effective means of deploying managed hot zone, 3G and4G traffic offload without sacrificing the performance and reliability that network operators demand.




2 Key Features

2.1 Wi-Fi RadiosThe concurrent dual-radio design of the AP 5100 series supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operation simultaneously with 2x2 MIMO and 2 spatial streams per band. Each stream supports a peak rate of 150 Mbps, thereby providing 300Mbps per radio and 600 Mbps per access point.

Both radios are compliant to IEEE 802.11n-2009 standards. The 2.4 GHz radio also provides full backwards compatibility for IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g clients. The 5 GHz radio is compatible with IEEE 802.11a clients.

Each radio supports up to 8 Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs) for a total of 16 SSIDs for each AP. Building on MSSID support, BelAirOS enables up to 8 fully segregated virtual APs per radio.

2.2 Security FeaturesThe AP 5100 series provides strong wireless security, including:

• WPA and WPA2 Enterprise and Personal compliant

• 802.1x (RADIUS) with EAP authentication, including:

o EAP-SIM

o EAP-AKA

o EAP-TLS

o TAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2

o PEAPv0/EAP-MSCHAPv2

o PEAPv1/EAP-GTC

• WEP 64 and 128 bit encryption

• TKIP / MIC encryption

• AES encryption per IEEE 802.11i

• MAC address Access Control Lists (ACL’s)




• Wireless client blacklist

• Inter-client communication control

• Denial of Service (DoS) attack protection (including DeauthenticationDoS)

• Honeypot detection

• MAC spoofing protection

• RADIUS Authentication and Accounting is supported per IETF RFC 3865 and RFC 2866

2.3 Performance FeaturesThe AP 5100 series products implement a wide suite of performance-enhancing features, including:

• Standards-Based Beamforming

Beamforming is fully compliant with IEEE 802.11n-2009, providing increased effective coverage and higher data rates by adjusting signal across the multiple antenna outputs to improve the phase coherence of the transmitted signal at the receiver.

• MIMO

2-Stream MIMO enables up to a doubling of throughput in a given bandwidth.

• 40 MHz Bandwidth

Up to 40 MHz bandwidth is supported in 5 GHz frequenciesenabling up to double the throughput of a traditional 20 MHz band

• Space-Time Block Coding (STBC)

With Space-Time Block Coding, the access point transmits redundant copies of the transmitted data in both space (i.e. across different spatial streams) and time. When these multiple copies of the same data arrive at the receiver,there is a greater likelihood that the receiver will correctly decode the data. This results in an effective increase in the sensitivity of the far-end receiver and improves downlink performance.

• Improved Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC)




Maximal Ratio Combining can be considered the inverse operation corresponding to STBC. Signals received from multiple diverse antennas are adjusted in relative time and phase to maximize the likelihood of successfully decoding the original data. This results in an effective increase in the receiver sensitivity of the access point and improves uplink performance.

• Maximum Likelihood Demodulation (MLD)

Maximum Likelihood Demodulation improves data rates at high orders of modulation, i.e. in relatively good signal conditions.

• Low-Density Parity Check (LDPC)

Low-Density Parity Check is a forward error-correction technique that inserts parity check bits into the data stream before transmission. At the receiving end, these inserted parity bits can be used to correct certain bit errors in the original data stream. LDPC improves effective data rates across all signal conditions.

• Aggregated MAC PDU (A-MPDU)

Packet aggregation per IEEE 802.11n enables multiple protocol data units (PDU) to be transmitted in a single frame, thereby reducing the overhead and improving MAC efficiency. Using A-MPDU enables MAC efficiency up to70%.

• Wireless Multimedia (WMM)

Wireless Multimedia (WMM) extensions provide a Quality of Service (QOS) framework to enable over-the-air prioritization of voice, video, best effort data and background data packets. This allows for optimal co-existence between non-realtime sensitive applications like web browsing along with delay- and jitter-sensitive realtime applications such as packet telephony, video streaming and conferencing.

• Power Save Extensions to Wireless Multimedia (WMM-PS)

The Power Save extensions to WMM ensure that portable devices such as tablets and smartphones can optimize their power-saving features to extend battery life.

2.4 Power Supply

All products in the AP 5110 series support standard Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af / at. Ericsson offers optional outdoor PoE power supplies as part of the Wi-Fi site products catalog.




The AP 5115, AP 5116, AP 5117 and AP 5118 also support direct connection to AC mains power as an alternative to Power-over-Ethernet. Power supply details are provided in each of the specific product descriptions below.
