HP R7T04A AP-585 Dual Band 802.11ax 2.97 Gbit/s Outdoor Access Point

SKU CH-MS3Y-GW9GP MPN R7T04A

Outdoor dual-band wireless access point delivering 2.97 Gbit/s with four internal antennas, IP67-rated enclosure, 5 Gbit/s and 10 Gbit/s Ethernet ports and PoE support

  • Dual-band 802.11ax delivers 2.97 Gbit/s throughput
  • IP67-rated enclosure withstands harsh outdoor conditions
  • Four internal antennas with MIMO and beamforming boost coverage
  • Two multi-gigabit RJ-45 ports support 10 Gbit/s and 5 Gbit/s links
  • PoE input plus USB and management ports simplify deployment

Dual-band 802.11ax outdoor access point

The HP R7T04A AP-585 is a wireless access point built for outdoor deployment. It operates on 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz bands with a total of four internal antennas. Wireless transmission speed reaches 2.97 Gbit/s using MIMO and beamforming technology. Data encryption is supported with WPA3 and WPA2-MPSK standards.

Suits campus and venue networks needing rugged

This unit targets IT teams extending wireless LAN to outdoor areas such as courtyards, stadiums or industrial yards. The IP67 rating protects against dust and water ingress during permanent installation. Wall, pole and ceiling mount options give flexibility for different structural profiles. Buyers needing indoor-only hardware or a lower power draw should consider other models.

71 W power draw via PoE decides deployment scope

The access point consumes 71 W and requires a PoE source able to deliver that budget on one of its two RJ-45 ports. Ports support 10 Gigabit, 5 Gigabit and Gigabit Ethernet speeds for uplink flexibility. A USB port and a dedicated management port are also available for local service access. Verify your PoE injector or switch capacity before ordering.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2.40 GHz or the 5 GHz radio for my outdoor deployment?

The AP-585 operates on both 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz simultaneously, so you do not choose one band — dual-band clients connect to whichever radio suits their range and speed needs.

What does the 2.97 Gbit/s wireless transmission speed mean for actual throughput?

That figure is the combined PHY-rate ceiling across both radios under ideal conditions; real-world throughput will be lower due to overhead, interference and client capabilities.

How do the 5 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports limit the wired backhaul?

The two RJ-45 ports negotiate at 10 Gbit/s, 5 Gbit/s or 1 Gbit/s, so the wired uplink caps at the highest speed both the switch and the AP support.
