Introduction
Key Features
・Supports IEEE802.11ac/a/b/g/n/ax wireless standards
・Four 2.4 GHz Metal PIFA Antennas
・Four 5 GHz Metal PIFA Antennas
・Support MU-MIMO / OFDMA function
・Support Tx Beamforming to enlarge the transmitting distance.
・IEEE802.11 PoE af/at Input design with Gigabit port supports.
・More customized items on Band Steering for intelligent Management.
・Secured Guest Network option available
The AP is 802.11 ax ac/a/b/g/n Indoor Access Point with speeds up to 1200 Mbps on 2.4GHz and
2400 Mbps on 5GHz band. It can be configured as an Access Point, or WDS (AP, Station). The AP is
an affordable solution which is built in high-powered radios and long-range settings to replace the
ordinary Access Points that do not have the range and reach to connect to a growing number of
wireless users. With 11ax features, the Access Point could reduce the handling period on client
devices and network with more client devices at the same time. Meanwhile, the beamforming will
gather energy to a specific direction and increase the transmitting distance.

Applications
Wireless LAN (WLAN) products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and
flexibility ofWLANs:
Difficult-to-Wire Environments: There are many situations where wires cannot be installed, deployed easily, or cannot be hidden from view. Older buildings, sites
with multiple buildings, and/or areas that make the installation of a Ethernet-based LAN impossible, impractical or expensive are sites where WLAN can be a
network solution.
Temporary Workgroups: Create temporary workgroups/networks in more open areas within a building; auditoriums, amphitheaters classrooms, ballrooms,
arenas, exhibition centers, or temporary offices where one wants either a permanent or temporary Wireless LAN established.
The Ability to Access Real-Time Information: Doctors/Nurses, Point-of-Sale Employees, and/or Warehouse Workers can access real-time information while
dealing with patients, serving customers, and/or processing information.
Frequently Changing Environments: Set up networks in environments that change frequently (i.e.: Show Rooms, Exhibits, etc.).
Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) Networks: SOHO users require a cost-effective, easy, and quick installation of a small network.
Training/Educational Facilities: Training sites at corporations or students at universities use wireless connectivity to exchange information between peers and
easily access information for learning purposes.
