Outdoor hardened Wi-Fi 6 dual-radio access point with integrated directional antennas for hazardous-location deployments.
The AP-587EX provides dual-radio 802.11ax connectivity with 4x4 MIMO on both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands. It has four integrated dual-band directional antennas, a 5 Gbps Ethernet PoE uplink on E0, a 10GBASE-R SFP+ interface on E1, and a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet interface with PoE PSE on E2. The access point supports direct AC power and 802.3bt PoE, operates from −40°C to +65°C with full solar loading, and is rated IP66 for operation in all weather conditions. It is certified for Class 1 Div 2, ATEX Zone 2, and IECEx hazardous-location applications.
