16. Key Selling Points
Manage APs with ease: Cluster Management
The system can group a variety of wireless settings into a single repository so users can just assign this collection of settings
to a specific AP upon discovery. It will save time on tedious repeated configuration steps on individual settings. Also, it
allows fast deployment.
PoE Management
Per power Power On/Off
Users can manually enable or disable the power feeding on per-port basis.
Power classification & priority
Users can configure PoE class per port with power feeding priority.
User-defined power limit
This function will allow the user to limit the power output according to different types of powered devices for a
budget control planning.
PoE scheduling (supported through future firmware upgrade)
Users can preset power feeding schedule based on a routine time table. Each PoE port can be configured to be ON
or OFF on an hourly basis. This to conserve energy and guaranteed power only when needed.
17. Key Selling Points
Traffic shaping
Advanced load balance management – traffic shaping per SSID
Traffic shaping function allows users to manage the traffic going in and going out of the device.
By setting such configuration in each SSID, users can control the load of this device easily.
Fast Handover & Client limit
The WLAN administrator is able to set the RSSI floor to facilitate wireless clients to handover to adjacent AP
with a better signal. This feature can assist to maintain best available signal quality across multiple AP
within WLAN.
Coupled with client limit feature (per radio), APs can protect its precious bandwidth resources to best serve its associated clients.
Band Steering
For effective spectrum usage, the AP device has enclosed band steering technology. This enables
5GHz-capable clients to associate with its 5GHz radio and offloading air utilization in 2.4GHz band.
18. Target market
SMB, Hospitality, Campus, Market
Equipped with the intelligent WLAN management features with PoE manageability. The EnGenius EWS
Series Wireless Management switch offers great flexibility other than traditional data/PoE switch,
sufficing power sourcing as well as data connection and management to deploy wired/WLAN for
SMB, hospitality/hotel, resorts, and campus environments.
