The maximum number of client users is up to 150, ensuring more secure and robust connectivity with the adoption of Wi-Fi 6 technology.

Suitable for Any Room Installation without Spoiling Interior Design

Featuring attractive in-wall design, the WDAP-W1800AXU can be firmly installed into the wall via the standard 86 x 86 mm European outlet box, which makes electrical wiring invisible and convenient for room installation without affecting the original interior design. It is ideal for hotels, residences, hospitals and more to establish any kind of wireless network.

Super Power Dual band WLAN Solution

PLANET WDAP-W1800AXU, adopting the IEEE 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 standard, provides a high-speed transmission. The maximum wireless speed in 2.4GHz band is up to 11ax of 574Mbps, and in the 5GHz band is up to 11ax of 1201Mbps. Both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless connections can also be used simultaneously.

Benefits of MU-MIMO, OFDMA, Seamless Roaming, Beamforming and BSS Coloring

The WDAP-W1800AXU can be installed in public areas such as hotspots, airports and conferences as OFDMA, a multi-user version of OFDM, enables the concurrent AP to communicate (uplink and downlink) with multiple clients by assigning subsets of subcarriers called resource units (RUs) to the individual clients. With MU-MIMO and Seamless Roaming technologies, it provides a better Wi-Fi user experience, reducing the likelihood of users turning off Wi-Fi and putting more load on the cellular network. Beamforming is to improve your Wi-Fi signal when you are far away from your router. The BSS color is a numerical identifier of the BSS. 802.11ax radios that are able to differentiate between BSSs using BSS color identifier when other radios transmit on the same channel.

These technologies also can solve Wi-Fi congestion issues in open work spaces and conference rooms. The WDAP-W1800AXU can offer more powerful throughput coverage of up to 150 client users.

OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) Benefits

• Helps transmit small and large packets together to reduce bandwidth burden and improve data transmission performance
• Transmitting data at the same time can effectively reduce the transmission delay for longer frame and low-speed transmission.
• Improves the overall traffic quality, and effectively uses bandwidth in an environment where multiple people use the Internet.
• Increases the number of devices that can be connected to the AP.
• Reduces the power consumption of the device by way of the use of low bandwidth.

Beamforming

Beamforming is to improve your Wi-Fi signal when you are far away from your router. When you use beamforming, Wi-Fi beamforming narrows the focus of that router signal, sending it directly to your devices in a straight line, thus minimizing surrounding signal interference and increasing the strength of the signal that ultimately bring you the following benefits:

• Extend your Wi-Fi coverage
• Deliver a more stable Wi-Fi connection
• Deliver better Wi-Fi throughput
• Reduce router interference

BSS Coloring

The BSS color is a numerical identifier of the BSS. 802.11ax radios that are able to differentiate between BSSs using BSS color identifier when other radios transmit on the same channel. If the color is the same, this is considered to be an intra-BSS frame transmission. In other words, the transmitting radio belongs to the same BSS as the receiver. If the detected frame has a different BSS color from its own, then the STA considers that frame as an inter-BSS frame from an overlapping BSS.

WPA3 Next Generation Security for Your WLAN Solution

WPA3 is the next generation Wi-Fi security technology that provides the most advanced security protocol to the market. WPA3 makes your connection more secure by preventing hackers from easily cracking your password no matter how simple the password is. WPA3 can also provide more reliable password-based authentication, so it can better protect the security of individual users.

* WDAP-W1800AXU only supports WPA3-Personal.

Advanced Security and Rigorous Authentication

The WDAP-W1800AXU supports WPA/WPA2/WPA3 wireless encryptions, and also supports the WPA2 Enterprise and WPA/WPA2 Enterprise, which can effectively prevent eavesdropping by unauthorized users or bandwidth occupied by unauthenticated wireless access. Furthermore, any users are granted or denied access to the wireless LAN network based on the ACL (Access Control List) that the administrator pre-established.

Multiple Operation Modes for Various Applications

The WDAP-W1800AXU supports the simplified usage modes of AP, Gateway and Repeater, through which they provide more flexibility for users when wireless network is established. Compared with general wireless access points, the WDAP-W1800AXU offers more powerful and flexible capability for wireless clients.

Optimized Efficiency in AP Management

The brand-new GUI configuration wizard helps the system administrator easily set up the WDAP-W1800AXU step by step. Besides, the built-in Wi-Fi analyzer provides real-time channel utilization to prevent channel overlapping to assure greater performance. With the automatic transmission power mechanism, distance control and scheduling reboot setting, the WDAP-W1800AXU is easy for the administrator to deploy and manage without on-site maintenance. Moreover, you can use PLANET NMS-500 or NMS-1000V AP control function to deliver wireless profiles to multiple APs simultaneously, thus making the central management simple.

Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks

The WDAP-W1800AXU supports TLSv1.3 protocols to provide strong protection against advanced threats. It includes a cybersecurity feature such as SNMPv3 authentication, and so on to complement it as a security solution.
