The Cisco AIR-LAP1261N-E-K9 is a controller-based (Lightweight Access Point Protocol, LAP) wireless access point from the Cisco Aironet 1260 Series, supporting the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard with external antenna connectors. Designed for indoor enterprise environments, it delivers reliable, predictable wireless coverage and up to nine times the throughput of legacy 802.11a/g networks for rich-media applications. Built for challenging environments, the 1260 Series supports a broad operating-temperature range. This unit ships in the "E" regulatory domain configuration and must operate under a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC), as it is a lightweight (controller-based) access point rather than an autonomous unit.
