WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing Grandstream GWN7600LR Enterprise 802.11ac Wave-2 Outdoor Long
Range WiFi Access Pointt. The GWN7600LR, which supports outdoor Wi-Fi supplying, waterproofing and
heat resisting, is a mid-tier 802.11ac Wave-2 Wi-Fi access point for small to medium sized businesses,
multiple floor offices, commercial locations and branch offices. It offers dual-band 2x2:2 MU-MIMO with
beam-forming technology and a sophisticated antenna design for maximum network throughput and
expanded Wi-Fi coverage range to 275 meters. To ensure easy installation and management, the
GWN7600LR uses a controller-less distributed network management design in which the controller is
embedded within the product’s web user interface. This allows each access point to manage a network of
up to 30 GWN76xx series APs independently without needing separate controller hardware/software and
without a single point of-failure. This wireless access point can be paired with any third-party routers as
well as Grandstream GWN series routers. With support for advanced QoS, low-latency real-time
applications, 450+ concurrent client devices per AP and dual Gigabit network ports with PoE, the
GWN7600LR is an ideal Wi-Fi access point for medium wireless network deployments with
medium-to-high user density.
Caution:
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Grandstream, or operation of this
product in any way other than as detailed by this User Manual, could void your manufacturer warranty.
