According to Motorola, the multi-radio Motorola AP-5131 (802.11 abg) and AP-7131 (802.11abgn) with integrated, hardware-based wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) provides enterprises with a new option that does not require the traditional three-layer solution of wired, followed by overlay wireless followed by overlay WIPS.

Motorola AirDefense 5131 and 7131 APs with WIPS use dedicated radios for sensing and avoid the performance-challenged, time-slicing technique currently available from other wireless infrastructure vendors.

Motorola and AirDefense have already hit the ground running and are ready to offer our customers around the world streamlined secure enterprise networks at the lowest total cost of ownership.
