W I R E L E S S L A N S W I T C H
The Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess™ 6000 (OAW-6000) Wireless LAN Switch is a high performance, fully featured modular
WLAN switch able to aggregate up to 2,048 campus connected access points (APs). The OAW-6000 provides a true
user-centric network experience, delivering follow-me connectivity, identity-based access, and application continuity services.
The OAW-6000 offers a scalable design that supports large deployments and can be easily implemented as an overlay
without any disruption to the existing wired network.
Advanced voice-over-WLAN features such as Call Admission Control (CAC), voice-aware RF management and strict
over-the-air quality of service (QoS) allow the OAW-6000 to deliver mobile VoIP capabilities. The OAW-6000 is managed
via the integrated management capability of the Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Wireless Operating System or the
Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista™ Mobility Manager.
