The SonicWall SonicWave 224W Wireless Access Point combines high-performance IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless technology with flexible deployment options. It can be managed through the SonicWall WiFi Cloud Manager (WCM) or integrated with SonicWall’s advanced next-generation firewalls, ensuring wired-level security with a seamless wireless experience.
Key Solution Highlights
- 802.11ac Wave 2 support with advanced RF technology for faster, more reliable connectivity.
- Cloud-based management via WCM for simple administration across networks of any size.
- Integration with SonicWall firewalls (TZ, NSa, NSsp, NSA, SuperMassive) for deep packet inspection and threat elimination.
Enhanced User Experience
The SonicWave 224W leverages MU-MIMO to serve multiple clients simultaneously, improving efficiency and performance. Mesh networking simplifies setup, expansion, and deployment, reducing cabling and installation costs. Multiple antennas enhance signal quality, coverage, and reliability, while fast roaming ensures seamless mobility. Additional features include airtime fairness, band steering, and signal analysis tools for monitoring and troubleshooting.
Advanced Wireless Security
SonicWall firewalls protect wireless traffic with deep packet inspection (DPI), removing threats such as malware and intrusions, even over SSL/TLS connections. Security is reinforced with content filtering, application control, intelligence, and Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), which features Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI™) to block zero-day threats with precision.
Independent Security Capabilities
SonicWave APs deliver security services—including Content Filtering Service (CFS) and Capture ATP sandboxing—independently of firewalls. With a dedicated third radio for rogue AP detection, passive scanning, and packet capture, they also offer WIDS/WIPS, virtual AP segmentation, guest services, RF monitoring, and wireless packet capture.
