GAP-FREE SECURITY
Trust the AP 8533 to deliver best-in-class
PCI compliance and security with Extreme
AirDefense*. Unlike other sensors that scan
only part time, this dedicated, dual-band
802.11ac sensor scans for rogue devices full time,
eliminating the risk of being blindsided by them.
Once a threat is detected, it is checked with
an extensive security and network vulnerability
signature database to proactively safeguard
your network.
