Dual-band WiFi 6 access point

The Alta Labs AP6 is a dual-band wireless access point built on the 802.11ax standard, delivering WiFi 6 performance for commercial and residential networks. It connects via a single gigabit Ethernet port and is powered entirely through POE+, simplifying installation where power outlets are unavailable. Cloud-based management is included, accessible through a browser or mobile app for remote configuration and monitoring.

3 Gbps aggregate throughput with 2x2 MIMO

The 5 GHz radio reaches up to 2.4 Gbps using 2x2 MIMO with DL/UL MU-OFDMA and explicit transmit beam-forming, while the 2.4 GHz radio provides up to 573 Mbps with 2x2 MIMO and DL/UL MU-OFDMA. Both bands transmit at 23 dBm with antenna gains of 4.1 dBi and 4.0 dBi respectively. Typical power draw sits between 5 and 12 watts, peaking at 20 watts maximum.

Gigabit Ethernet backhaul and IP54 rating

The single GbE RJ45 port caps wired backhaul at 1 Gbps, which can become the bottleneck when aggregate wireless traffic approaches the 3 Gbps rating. The IP54-rated enclosure protects against limited dust ingress and water splashes, making it suitable for covered outdoor areas but not direct exposure. Buyers needing multi-gigabit uplinks or full outdoor ruggedisation should consider other models.

Questions about this item

Will the AP6 work with my existing 802.11n router and client devices?

Yes, the AP6 supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax standards so it operates alongside WiFi4 and WiFi5 hardware on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

How can I verify the AP6 is delivering the rated 573 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 2.4 Gbps on 5 GHz after installation?

Use the Alta Labs cloud dashboard or mobile app to view real-time client throughput, signal strength, and band utilisation for each connected device.

Does the AP6 package include a PoE+ injector or power adapter, or must I buy one separately?

The AP6 is powered via PoE+ only; no injector or AC adapter is included, so you must supply a compliant PoE+ switch or midspan injector.
