experience for thousands of mobile users and devices.
flows, radically reduced latency,
and massive scalability. The WLA Series is simple to deploy and can easily be configured and managed remotely.
Once installed, the WLA Series access points automatically monitor the data integrity
and radio frequency (RF) signal strength of wireless channels, and continually tune
for optimal RF channel and transmit power. Continuous scanning of the RF spectrum
also allows early detection, classification, avoidance and remediation of performance
degrading interference sources.

WLA Series access points enforce stringent prioritization of delay sensitive traffic for
voice and other critical applications and provide granular quality of service (QoS), and
bandwidth management capabilities on a per application, per user or per SSID basis. Wi-
Fi Multimedia (WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) can be configured to ensure
optimal QoS for voice traffic. Access point policies allow per user, protocol or class-of-
service (CoS) mapping.

WLA Series access points may also be deployed in branch locations away from a main
campus in a controller-less plug and play deployment model. This reduces the cost and
complexity of installing wireless access in remote sites. They can be managed via the
WAN or through the Internet by controllers at headquarters, and will maintain local session
persistence indefinitely, if the WAN link goes down. If the connection to the controller is lost,
wireless services continue uninterrupted; connected clients maintain wireless connection
to the AP, new clients can connect and authenticate locally, and the Wireless Intrusion
Detection System (WIDS) continues. Furthermore, the new country code override feature
in the remote AP profile allows the AP’s channel and transmit power to be set to meet the
specific country’s regulatory requirement where it is located, independent of the location of
the WLAN controller which is managing it.
