Tri-band access point and mesh extender

The Netgear WAC564-100NAS is a tri-band wireless access point that also functions as a mesh extender with a built-in four-port Gigabit Ethernet switch. It supports up to 600 connected devices and delivers AC3000 Wi-Fi speeds using 4x4 802.11ac Wave 2 technology. The unit is designed for commercial environments that need flexible wireless expansion.

Suits sites needing cable-free growth.

This device suits businesses that want to extend coverage without pulling new Ethernet cables while keeping existing VLAN and QoS policies intact. It also provides instant wired ports for printers, workstations and IP phones. Buyers who only need a basic single-band access point or who require a mesh system compatible with brands other than the WAC540 or WAC564 should look elsewhere.

Mounting kit and power adapter enable immediate

The package includes a 12V 2.5A power adapter, an Ethernet cable, a wall mount with screws and a ceiling mount with screws. An installation guide is also supplied. These accessories allow the unit to be powered and fixed in place on either a wall or ceiling straight out of the box, removing the need for separate mounting hardware.

Questions about this item

Does the WAC564-100NAS need a PoE switch or does the box include a power adapter?

A 12 V 2.5 A DC power adapter is included, so the unit can run without PoE; it also has four 1 G Ethernet LAN ports for wired clients.

Can the WAC564-100NAS join an existing mesh built with a WAC540?

Yes, extender mode works with NETGEAR WAC540 or another WAC564, preserving all VLAN and QoS settings from the main network.

How do I confirm the tri-band AC3000 radios are active after mounting?

The Insight app shows each 4×4 802.11ac Wave 2 band status, connected device count up to 600, and VLAN mapping in real time.
