High Performance WiFi 6 Access Points for Insight WAX618 the Commercial and Residential Integrators
The WAX618 is a high performance WiFi 6 access point, ideal residential and commercial integration projects. The access point is a dual band 2x2 design delivering up to 3Gbps total WiFi throughput, supported by a 2.5Gbps Power-over-Ethernet port, an industry leader of performance and cost effectiveness in its product class. The WAX618 supports the next generation WiFi 6 smart phones, IoT devices, and notebook computers. The WAX618 WiFi is based on WiFi 6 Release 2 technology, featuring 160MHz channelization on 5GHz band, delivering 100% more throughput than designs based on WiFi 6 Release 1. Compared to WiFi 5 access points, the WAX618 provides 4x the client device connection, allowing for better speed and less congestion. The WAX618 is ideal in high density client device environments such as schools, hotels, restaurants and conference centers, and provides enterprise grade WiFi network security. With Insight management, WAX618 works seamlessly with your current NETGEAR Insight managed switches, WiFi access points and network storage, and is compatible with previous generation WiFi devices (WiFi 5 802.11ac for example) and WiFi access points. Enjoy a 4-year Insight subscription plus 4 years of ProSUPPORT, a 24/7 live expert technical support by phone, chat and email. In the past several years, the WiFi industry has made progress in increasing speeds by leaps and bounds. However, capacity continues to be a challenge, namely, supporting a large number of concurrent users. Rather, it is providing network connectivity to a large number of client devices, with good throughput, stable connection, and robust responses to environmental changes that is most important. With the updated WiFi 6 (802.11ax) technology such as OFDMA, upstream and downstream MU-MIMO, and increased speeds, coverage, and capacity, you can feel confident that you’re getting the highest performance WiFi that’s set for years to come! Plus the assurance that you can now add more connected devices on your WiFi network without any slowdowns or blind spots. The WAX618, a WiFi 6 access point, combined with Insight, helps integrators with a way to remotely manage their client's network, providing seamless WiFi connection and satisfied client experiences. NETGEAR empowers integrators with an all new WiFi 6 access point for high performance and high coverage for the years to come.

True WiFi 6 The WAX510D is truly the next generation of wireless (WiFi 6) AP, especially for businesses looking to strike the right balance between performance and budget. Its built-in 2nd Generation WiFi 6 (Qualcomm 802.11ax 2.0) chipset allows the access point to take advantage of the full range of WiFi 6 technologies including uplink OFDMA and MU-MIMO, which can’t be found in the earlier releases of 802.11ax products. The WAX510D boasts an impressive quad-core processor with 2 network accumulators to guarantee that a smooth and consistently fast service is provided to each client at all times. Mount wherever you want without compromise An access point that fits your need We understand that mounting an access point to the ceiling isn’t always possible due to the challenging environments like warehouses, historical buildings or stylish hotels were the aesthetics of the building are a priority. The WAX510D is equipped with a dual-optimized antenna that is selectable, allowing the access point to be mounted on the wall or on the ceiling without compromising on performance and coverage. The smartest choice The WAX510D is not only efficient at delivering impressive high speeds with smooth and consistent delivery to wireless clients, but also it’s efficient on power. The WAX510D can deliver its impressive performance while keeping the consumption of PoE within the PoE+ standard, so that you can enjoy the latest WiFi 6 technology offering without the need to invest in upgrading your traditional switching architecture. Manage it your way! As it comes with support for NebulaFlex Pro, Zyxel’s scalable, cloud-based management system, the WAX510D can be managed via NCC (Nebula control Center), on-premises controller or simply operate alone (controller less). You can choose the way that is best suited to your needs.
The most versatile Cisco Catalyst 9105 Access Points goes beyond the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard, offers high-density and resiliency, as well as network intelligence and IOT Application hosting. It comes with ceiling mount for remote workers, branch offices and small to medium-size deployments, and wall mount for hospitality, residence halls and other multi-dwelling units.
