Product End-of-Life Notice
End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco
Aironet 40-bit WEP Products
1422
Cisco Systems® announces the end-of-sale and end-of life dates for the Cisco Aironet
40-bit WEP Products. The last day to order the Cisco Aironet 40-bit WEP Products is
October 27, 2001. Customers with active service contracts will continue to receive support
from the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) as shown in Table 1 of the EoL
bulletin. Table 1 describes the end-of-life milestones, definitions, and dates for the Cisco
Aironet 40-bit WEP Products. Table 2 lists the product part numbers affected by this
announcement.
Cisco Systems is committed to providing customers with the highest level of security
available. Consistent with this, we are discontinuing all 40-bit encrypted products.
Because our products are classified by the United States Department of Commerce as
being "retail" products, Cisco does not differentiate between 40- and 128-bit encrypted
products. Therefore, Cisco holds no export limitations on 128-bit encrypted products that
are not equally applicable to 40-bit encrypted products.

Cisco Aironet 340 Series Products
®
In most cases the Cisco Aironet 350 Series represents a superset of hardware and software
functionality relative to the Cisco Aironet 340 Series. To simplify ordering and decrease the SKU
count supported by both Cisco and its distribution and reseller partners, Cisco is discontinuing
many products in the Cisco Aironet 340 Series family. In most countries, these discontinued
products have direct replacements in the Cisco Aironet 350 Series family. However, in the
countries Argentina, Chile, China, Cyprus, Mexico, Peru, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation,
Slovenia, Taiwan and Thailand, direct replacement 350 series products have not yet been
certified. There is no impact on the functionality of the Cisco Aironet product family that results
from this discontinuation. Products specifically excluded from this discontinuation are the
Cisco Aironet 340 Series Bridge (AIR-BR342), Cisco Aironet 340 Series Access Points (AIRAP342E2C and AIR-AP342E2R) and the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Ethernet Uplink Base Station
(AIR-BSE342).

Product End-of-Life Notice
The Cisco Aironet 350 Series Workgroup Bridge is a functional superset of both the AIR-UC4800
and the AIR-MC4800. The Cisco Aironet 350 Series Workgroup Bridge shares the same operating
system and user interface as the UC and MC4800. The Cisco Aironet 350 Series replacement
product offers the advantages of supporting eight MAC addresses relative to one for the UC and
four for the MC as well as a greater selection of antenna options.
Power Injector
The AIR-PWRINJ= Power Injector is a functional superset of the 110-220V Power Injector AIRPWRINJ1= which is used by Cisco Aironet 350 Series Access Points and Bridges. The new power
injector incorporates a protection circuit; protecting devices that don't require, or cannot accept,
power over Ethernet.
Antennas/Accessories
Recent antenna introductions have rendered several antenna offerings obsolete. These legacy
antennas and the new replacement antennas are listed below. To further simplify the Cisco
product line and reduce SKU count, Cisco will discontinue several accessories with very low
demand as well as several kits, the individual component parts of which remain available.
Customers can use the Cisco Technology Migration Plan (TMP) to trade in products and receive
credit toward the purchase of new Cisco equipment. For more information about Cisco TMP, go to:
http://www.cisco.com/go/tradein/. The Cisco TMP application requires all users to have a
Cisco.com user ID.
Customers may be able to continue to purchase the end-of-sale product through Cisco's
Authorized Refurbished Equipment program. Refurbished units of the end-of-sale product are
available in limited supply for sale in certain countries on a first-come, first-served basis. For
information about the refurbished equipment program, go to:
