1 Overview
Antaira Technologies’ ARS-7235-PD-AC Series is an industrial dual radio IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless
LAN access point with added router capabilities and PD (Powered-Device) function. Embedded with the
Qualcomm IPQ4029 SoC chipset, it boasts network robustness, stability, and a wide network coverage
with a very low voltage input of 9V. Based on IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, the access point supports
high-speed data transmission of up to 867Mbps.
The ARS-7235-PD-AC Series is capable of operating in different modes, which makes it suitable for a wide
variety of wireless applications including long-distance deployments. The unit also allows the user to
position the wireless antennas in a better signal-broadcasting location for improved wireless coverage
and signal strength or simply in a more convenient location.
