MAKE DEPLOYING HIGH-SPEED
ACCESS AND POWERFUL APPLICATIONS
EASIER, FASTER AND LESS COSTLY
In today’s customer-centric business climate, customer
satisfaction is king. In retail, in hospitality, in virtually
any business, the key to creating satisfied customers
is your ability to offer them unique experiences
that are positive, memorable, money-saving and
empowering…and that differentiate you from
your competition. Crucial to enhancing customer
experiences are high-performance communications
solutions that help optimize customer engagement
and powerful applications that streamline operations
efficiency and customer service.

APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT
CHALLENGES
But access and applications deployment can be
anything but simple. First, you must offer customers
network access virtually everywhere within your
environment. Next, you must deploy innovative
applications where they will make the most impact,

which traditionally involves installing separate
hardware-based technology throughout the premises.
It’s costly. It’s time consuming. But now, thanks to
a bold new idea from Motorola, it’s becoming
unnecessary. Our modular AP 8132 is the industry’s
first access point that’s able to multi-task.   

BEYOND ACCESS
The AP 8132 is the innovative new access point
that goes beyond typical AP functionality and
features. In addition to providing high-speed network
access for customers and staff, its unique modular
design also enables you to more efficiently deploy
applications where they are most needed. By
leveraging your wireless network, the AP 8132 lets
you deploy these applications without the time,
effort and cost of having to install additional hardware
and cabling.
APPLICATION BRIEF
MOTOROLA AP 8132

THE AP 8132:

THE FIRST MULTI-TASKING ACCESS POINT

WHAT IF AN ACCESS POINT COULD MULTI-TASK?
What if it could do more than simply provide high-performance network
access? What if it could streamline deployment of advanced applications
that help improve customer experiences, optimize operations efficiency
and save on hardware costs?   

AP 8132

Our AP 8132 is a dual-radio unit that provides high-performance
network access with data rates of up to 450 Mbps, and much more.
Its modular design allows you to deploy and manage multiple applications
quickly, securely and cost-efficiently. The AP 8132 leverages your wireless
network and enables application modules to work seamlessly with
software on your integrated services platform.

UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES
FROM A SINGLE ACCESS POINT
There’s never been an access point like the AP 8132. Its ability to multi-task unleashes
unlimited possibilities for application module development and deployment in a wide range
of industries. As the third-party developer community ramps up design of innovative new
modules, IT managers will find a virtually limitless number of ways of using the AP 8132.
These can include, for example, sensor networks, security systems, inventory management
applications, video analytics, redundant 3G backhaul networks and more.*
SPOILER ALERTS
A high-end food store requires sophisticated refrigerated
storage with numerous products needing to be stored
at a variety of temperatures from cool to frozen. The
store could deploy the AP 8132 in the kitchen area to
not only provide high-speed communications, but also to
collect data from numerous sensors, alerting managers
to product-specific temperature fluctuations that could
cause spoilage.

BETTER-CONNECTED GUESTS
Today’s hospitality guests demand high-performance
network connectivity for their mobile computers and
smart devices. At a resort complex, the IT department
could use AP 8132 access points to provide different
levels of wireless Internet services by differentiating
between premier and regular guests. This enables the
resort to charge a premium for — or reward loyal
customers by — providing higher data rates that
increase range and performance on tablets and mobile
devices. Because of the AP 8132’s ability to utilize
additional plug-and-play modules, the hotel can use the
same units to deploy an IP camera application module
for real-time, round-the-clock video surveillance.   

CODES AND CLOUDS
In an enormous membership store, shopping for a
television set can be daunting. Faced with a wall of
TVs of every size and type, shoppers need information.
And while customer-accessed QR codes can provide

useful data, coverage inside such large interiors can
be problematic. In addition to its modularity benefits,
the AP 8132 offers high data rates that enable strong
smartphone and tablet connections for accessing
QR code data and information, as well as information
the customer has stored on the cloud.

NETWORK SECURITY IMPROVEMENT
For a large-scale home improvement center, safety
and security are significant and costly challenges.
The IT department can deploy AP 8132 access points
to enhance connectivity across both a large retail floor
and interior greenhouse spaces. Using the same
AP 8132s, the retailer can use a plug-in module to
easily deploy 24/7 network monitoring and wireless
intrusion protection and detection systems, such as
Motorola’s AirDefense solutions to help identify,
respond to and eliminate security threats.

IT’S A WI-FI WORLD
Using an array of mobile
communications devices with
Internet connections — such
as smartphones, tablets and
mobile computers — today’s
customers want to be in
touch with you wherever
they are. Even, or perhaps
especially, when they’re on
your premises. In a 2011
study, Motorola Solutions
found that “38% of shoppers
are likely to use a retailer’s
wireless Internet access to
search for product information
and post to the web while
shopping.” That number will
surely continue to rise.

AN EYE ON THE CUSTOMER
To help maximize client experiences, a sporting goods
superstore could use the AP 8132 for more than highperformance customer access. Using a plug-in video
camera module, merchandisers could use video analytics
to pinpoint a customer’s exact location in the store. This
micro-locationing provides the ability to interact with
customers where the buying decision is being made, for
example, sending a special offer on parkas as they’re
shopping for outerwear.

FASHION CONTROL

STRONG DEVELOPER ENVIRONMENT

Inventory at a women’s specialty clothing store can
move at the speed of fashion. What’s hot can fly off the
shelves and pressure floor and operations staff to keep
the hottest items on the floor at all times to maximize
both customer satisfaction and sales. By adding an
RFID module to its AP 8132 access network, retailers
can help eliminate costly out-of-stock situations quickly,
easily and cost-effectively.

In conjunction with the AP 8132, Motorola is planning
to introduce a number of efficient and powerful
applications modules. In addition, we’ve designed
the platform with open APIs to encourage a virtually
unlimited portfolio of third-party application modules.
As more and more application modules are developed,
the AP 8132 will leverage them to drive more productive
operations, more empowered personnel and, ultimately,
more satisfied customers.

FIVE-STAR REDUNDANCY
Today’s Five-Star hotels rely on high performance
communications networks to increase guest satisfaction
and repeat stays, as well as ensuring 24/7 operations
efficiency, security and productivity. In a smoothly
running hospitality business, a network outage can be
a disaster. An IT director needing to ensure business
continuity could use the AP 8132 to deliver network
access simply by plugging in a 3G backhaul application
module, to provide network redundancy.

deploy applications where they are most needed,
please visit  www.motorolasolutions.com/AP8132.

*	These are examples of the types of modules that can be designed and how they can be used. These modules are not
	 available today and the information is not a commitment or an obligation to deliver any product, product feature or software
	 functionality. Please contact your Motorola sales representative for available modules.
