1-2 Motorola RF Switch Systen Reference
1.1 Hardware Overview
The RFS4000, RFS6000 and RFS7000 are rack-mountable devices that manage all inbound and outbound
traffic on the wireless network. They provide security, network service and system management
applications.
Unlike traditional wireless infrastructure devices that reside at the edge of a network, the switch uses
centralized, policy-based management to apply sets of rules or actions to all devices on the wireless
network. The switch collects management “intelligence” from individual Access Ports/Points and moves the
collected information to the centralized switch.
Access ports (APs) are 48V Power-over-Ethernet devices connected to the switch by an Ethernet cable. An
Access Port receives 802.11x data from MUs and forwards the data to the switch which applies the
appropriate policies and routes the packets to their destinations.
Access ports do not have software or firmware upon initial receipt from the factory. When the Access Port
is first powered on and cleared for the network, the switch initializes the Access Port and installs a small
firmware file automatically. Therefore, installation and firmware upgrades are automatic and transparent.
