To achieve this, the SonicWave432e uses:The SonicWave 432i provides physical layer enhancements forhigher throughput with a maximum data rate of 1730Mbps for5GHz and 800Mbps for 2.4 GHz. To achieve this, the SonicWave432i uses: Wider channels—80 MHz‐wide channels for the802.11ac radio module, while continuing to support 20/40 MHz channels. This allows for dynamic per packetnegotiation of channel widths so that when there isinterference, the SonicWave can temporarily fall backto 40 or 20MHz channels. More antennas—four antennas for the 5 GHz radio, andfour more for the 2.4 GHz radio Wider channels—80 MHz‐wide channels for the802.11ac radio module, while continuing to support 20/40 MHz channels. This allows for dynamic per packetnegotiation of channel widths so that when there isinterference, the SonicWave can temporarily fall backto 40 or 20MHz channels. More spatial streams—4X4 multiple‐input andmultiple‐output, (MU‐MIMO) for the 802.11ac radiomodule, where the capacity of a radio link is multipliedusing multipath propagation.

wireless device on another subnet or on a completely differentnetwork, traffic between the devices is forced to traverse theSonicWall network security appliance. This traversal enablessecurity services to be enforced by SonicOS.Standard practice for wireless firewalling (where one wirelessclient is communicating with another) bypasses many of thecritical security services. The following illustration shows thestandard practice for wireless firewalling.SonicWall addresses this security shortcoming by managingthe SonicWave access points from the network securityappliance. This allows complete control of the wireless space,including zone enforcement of security services and completefirewalling capabilities.Secure Wireless FirewallingStandard Wireless Firewalling?SonicWall SonicWaveaveOther Security ApplianceContent Filtering ServiceSonicWall ApplianceClient Anti-Virus EnforcementGateway Anti-VirusWLAN ZoneGateway Anti-SpywareContent Filtering ServiceIntrusion Prevention ServiceClient Anti-Virus EnforcementGateway Anti-VirusSecurity ServicesGateway Anti-SpywareIntrusion Prevention ServiceMany security products on the market share this potentialvulnerability when two users connected by a common hub orwireless access point wish to exchange data.WLAN ZoneSecurity ServicesSonicWall SonicWave 432e and SonicWave 432i Getting Started Guide7

Frequency Bands and ChannelsCurrently five standards for 802.11 wireless network types have been widely adopted: a, b, g, n, and ac. 802.11n and 802.11ac arethe newest and highest capacity standards, but older client devices might not be able to utilize the newer standards.Wireless Standards802.11 (x)Frequency StandardMaximum Data Rate802.11a5 GHz54 Mbps802.11b2.4 GHz11 Mbps802.11g2.4 GHz54 Mbps802.11n2.4 GHz and 5 GHz450 Mbps802.11ac5 GHz MU‐MIMO2.34 ‐ 3.47 GbpsDifferent frequency bands provide varying signal strength and quality over different distance ranges. Signals in the 2.4 GHz rangetend to pass through physical barriers better and carry farther than those in the 5 GHz range, but they do not provide as high adata rate. Signals in the 5 GHz range provide faster data rates for better throughput, but the signal attenuates faster and is bestsuited for open spaces.Strengths and Weaknesses of 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz Signals5 GHz2.4 GHzStrengthHigher speed, more channelsLonger range, stronger signal penetrationWeaknessLimited penetration of walls, client compatibilityMore sources of interferenceRefer to Radio Frequency Barriers and RF Interference on page 18 for detailed information about RF barriers and interference.8SonicWall SonicWave 432e and SonicWave 432i Getting Started Guide

To allow multiple separate wireless networks in a shared and confined space, the RF medium is divided into channels. For devicesin the 5 GHz range (802.11a/n/ac), this means the possibility of up to 23 discrete channels.For devices using the 2.4 GHz range (802.11b/g/n), the wireless space is limited to a maximum of 14 overlapping channels. As aresult of these overlapping channels, 2.4 GHz technology provides only a total of three discrete channels.802.11 Signal Comparison Chart802.11 Signal c# of Channels in USA2311111121# of Channels in EU2313131316# of Channels in Japan1514141419Frequency Band5 GHz2.4 GHz2.4 GHz2.4/5 GHz5 GHzMax.

Installing SonicWave 432eAntennasTo install the antennas on your SonicWave 432e:1 Remove all eight antennas from their bags and placeone on each connector.2 Carefully finger‐tighten the fittings.3 Adjust the antennas upright for optimal reception.For optimal wireless coverage, the SonicWave 432e antennasshould be oriented vertically. The circular design of theSonicWave aides in creating a strong multi‐directional wirelesssignal pattern. In most cases, leaving the antennas straight up(as shown in the illustration) provides the best overallcoverage.TIP: There might be a “dead” zone directly underneaththe SonicWave 432e when it is mounted on a ceilingwith the antennas oriented vertically. You can mitigatethis by slightly angling the antennas.CAUTION: Only antennas provided by SonicWall areauthorized for use with the SonicWave 432e. Be awareof the regulations in your region before using otherantennas.Connecting Ethernet CablesThe SonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i are powered throughPower over Ethernet (PoE), and should be cabled with CAT5eEthernet cabling.SonicWall SonicWave 432e and SonicWave 432i Getting Started Guide15

When using PoE, a SonicWall 802.3at compliant midspan PoEline injector (sold separately), or an 802.3at compliant switch isrequired to power each SonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i.To connect PoE to a SonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432iInternetX1 WAN1 Using an Ethernet cable, connect the Data in port onthe SonicWall PoE Injector to an existing WLAN zoneinterface on the firewall or to an unused interface to beconfigured later in SonicOS.2 Using a second Ethernet cable, connect the Data andPower out port on the SonicWall PoE injector to theLAN1/PoE port on your SonicWave 432e or SonicWave432i.IMPORTANT: Be sure cables are connectedcorrectly.3 Plug the power cord of the SonicWall PoE injector intoan appropriate power outlet.4 Wait for the LAN1 LED on the SonicWave 432e orSonicWave 432i to illuminate. This indicates an activeconnection.See Product Safety and Regulatory Information on page 33.16SonicWall SonicWave 432e and SonicWave 432i Getting Started GuideX2 WLANX0 LANLocal Network (LAN)PoE Injectoror PoE SwitchWireless ClientsCAUTION: A multi‐gigabit 802.3at compliant PoEinjector or PoE‐capable switch is required to providepower to each SonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i.To maintain power to the SonicWave 432e orSonicWave 432i, the maximum length of CAT5e cablefrom the 802.3at PoE injector to the SonicWave 432e orSonicWave 432i is 100 meters (333 feet).

Wireless Access PointPlacement ConsiderationsTo maintain power to the SonicWave 432e orSonicWave 432i, the recommended maximum length ofCAT5e cable from the 802.3at PoE injector to theSonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i is 100 meters (333feet).Physical placement of the SonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432iwireless access point has a measurable effect on who can andcannot access your wireless signal. Hubs / Switches – Your wireless deployment has to tieback into your network security appliance and LANresources. Consider where your key networking devicesare deployed and how they will connect efficiently withyour wireless appliances. What speed is needed foryour Ethernet connection to accommodate the numberof access points you are installing? A Gigabit Ethernetinterface is recommended when connecting aSonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i to your SonicWallnetwork security appliance.Access points should be kept clear of Radio Frequency (RF)interference sources. RF barriers can be circumvented bydeploying multiple access points.A site survey can help find the optimum wireless access pointplacement, but you can find usable locations without it.Considerations include: Number of Access Points Versus User Density – If toomany users are serviced by a single access point,maximum transfer rates are reached and that accesspoint may become a bottleneck for the whole system. Legacy Clients ‐ Older laptops and mobile devices maynot support 802.11ac. Although clients with 802.11a/g/b hardware are supported by the SonicWall SonicWave432e and SonicWave 432i, the presence of these legacyclients within range of your wireless network couldaffect the connection speed of your 802.11ac clients. Bandwidth – How much data is moving upstream anddownstream for a given type of user? Ethernet Cabling – Where are you running the poweredEthernet (PoE) cable to and how are you securing thatcable? Are you using a multi‐gigabit 802.3at compliantPoE injector or switch to power all access points?For example, an 802.11b device authenticated to theSonicWave 432e or SonicWave 432i could limit allclients connected to that radio to 802.11b data rates.SonicWall SonicWave 432e and SonicWave 432i Getting Started Guide17

Radio Frequency BarriersRF InterferenceDetermining how to circumvent RF barriers can be achallenging part of the placement process, but RF barriers canalso be used beneficially in an attempt to block signals whereyou do not want coverage. The 5 GHz frequency is moresensitive to RF barriers. A wall that allows a 2.4 GHz wirelessnetwork to operate can block a 5 GHz one.RF interference from home, office, and medical equipment is acommon challenge in wireless deployments.Common RF Barrier TypesBarrier TypeRF Signal BlockingOpen airVery LowGlass, wood, drywall, cube partitionsWhen considering RF interference sources, remember thatmost cell/wireless phones and Bluetooth devices only utilizethe 2.4 GHz frequency.
