5 GHz Antenna Adapter or AP-2000 11a Upgrade Kit

The 5 GHz Antenna Adapter or 11a Upgrade Kit can be used in the Access Point. Because 802.11a requires an
antenna adapter, only one 5 GHz radio can be installed in the AP. The second slot can be populated with an 802.11b or
802.11b/g card.

System Requirements

To begin using an AP, you must have the following minimum requirements:

A 10Base-T Ethernet or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet switch or hub

At least one radio card designed for the AP: an 802.11b PC Card, 802.11b/g Card, 5 GHz Antenna Adapter Kit, or
11a Upgrade Kit

At least one of the following IEEE 802.11-compliant devices:

An 802.11a client device if you have an 802.11a AP

An 802.11b or 802.11b/g client device if you have an 802.11b AP

An 802.11b/g client device if you have an 802.11b/g AP

An 802.11a/g client device if you have an 802.11a/g AP

A computer that is connected to the same IP network as the AP and has one of the following Web browsers
