access points at -5 temp

[mirehteshamali]

hi

1) i need info about which access points supports operating   temperatures as low as - 5 C (minus 5) .

2)  i guess all access points supports atleast 0 deg celcius operating temperature.

3)  for managing 30 access points do i " really " need a wcs . (  i mean will mangement becomes difficult without WCS. )

Thanks

plz reply soon

The 1242 datasheet says it operates until -20 C

It should be the same for most other access points. Check the datasheet of the ones that you find interesting.

Your 3rd question is a bit strange. WCS is useful to manage multiple CONTROLLERS.

So if you have 30 access points, you are best using lightweight access points and a controller. No particular need of WCS unless you want nice reporting and graphic features.

30 access points would be a pain to manage if you chose standalone access points without controller.

Hope this helps.
