Product Overview
Overview:
This high throughput enterprise class 802.11ax indoor AP provides three radios and 8 spatial streams. This top-of-the line access point supports OFDMA, a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, plus an additional 1 Gbps Ethernet port for PoE diversity. The AP can provide 24/7 scanning across both bands while still providing access on both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. The integrated BLE radio can be used for beacons and locationing applications.
Key Features:
- 802.11ax
- Tri-Radio 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz + scanning
- 5 Internal/External Antennas
- 4x4 MU-MIMO
- Up to 1,147 Mbps + 2,402 Mbps
