802.11a/g/n Fixed Unified AP

The Cisco® Aironet® 1140 Series Access Point is a business-ready, indoor access point designed for simple deployment and energy efficiency. The 1140 Series is a dual-band, 802.11n access point with integrated antennas. It may also be ordered with a single-band 802.11g/n (2.4-GHz) radio for use in regulatory domains that do not allow 802.11a (5-GHz) operation.

The Cisco Aironet 1140 Series ships with the following:
- Access point
- Cisco Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP)1 software
- Mounting plate, security hasp, pair of ceiling-tile clips, and hardware accessory package
- Documentation CD
The Cisco Aironet 1140 Series is available in several stock keeping units (SKUs), each of which identifies a particular regulatory domain (Tables 1 and 2). Each version provides a unique combination of channel and power settings that are compliant with local government regulations.

Lightweight Acces Points (LAP) cannot function independent of Wireless Lan Controllers(WLC). LAPs function in conjunction with a WLC only. The reason is that the WLC provides all the configuration parameters and firmware that the LAP needs in the registration process.
