Outdoor Wi-Fi 6 AX1800 access point

The Netgear WAX610Y-100NAS is a dual-band outdoor wireless access point built for Wi-Fi 6 networks. It delivers AX1800 speeds across 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz bands and supports up to 256 client devices. The IP55-rated enclosure and included pole or wall mounting kits make it suitable for exterior deployments such as campuses, yards or building-to-building links.

2.5 GbE PoE+ uplink and Wi-Fi 6 limits

A single 10/100/1000/2.5GBASE-T RJ-45 port provides the wired backhaul and accepts PoE+ power under IEEE 802.3at. Wireless throughput peaks at 1.8 Gbps, so the 2.5 Gbps Ethernet link prevents the uplink from becoming a bottleneck. The 2.4 GHz band uses 802.11b/g/n/ax while the 5.0 GHz band uses 802.11a/g/n/ac/ax; real-world range reaches up to 3,000 sq ft depending on obstacles and interference.

PoE+ mounting and Insight cloud setup

Installation relies on a PoE+ injector or switch — no separate power supply is included — so verify your cabling supports 802.3at before mounting. The package supplies both a pole mount kit and a wall/ceiling kit with hardware. Initial configuration uses the Netgear Insight app or cloud portal, which includes a one-year subscription; afterwards a paid licence is required for continued remote management.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the AX1800 model or a different capacity for my outdoor deployment?

This model provides AX1800 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 with a maximum wireless rate of 1.8 Gbit/s and supports up to 256 users, suitable for outdoor coverage up to 3,000 sq ft.

What does the 1.8 Gbit/s figure mean when the access point is mounted outside?

The 1.8 Gbit/s is the combined PHY ceiling across both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz radios; real-world throughput will be lower and depends on client mix, interference, and PoE+ power budget.

What does the 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet port cap in practice?

The single RJ-45 port negotiates up to 2.5 Gbit/s wired uplink, so the wireless aggregate of 1.8 Gbit/s will not be bottlenecked by the Ethernet link when connected to a 2.5G switch.
