Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 for 256 users

The Netgear WAX615-100NAS is a dual-band wireless access point built for small and medium businesses. It supports up to 256 concurrent users across indoor spaces up to 2,750 sq ft. Wi-Fi 6 Release 2 technology with 160MHz channelization on the 5GHz band delivers up to 3Gbps total throughput. Enterprise-grade security includes WPA3 and eight separate SSIDs for network segmentation.

PoE+ powered with 2.5GbE uplink

A single 2.5Gbps Power-over-Ethernet port handles both data and power, simplifying installation where AC outlets are unavailable. The PoE+ input meets the 802.11ax standard for high-efficiency wireless in dense environments. Indoor mounting keeps the unit discreet in offices, schools, hotels and conference centres. NETGEAR Insight cloud management allows remote monitoring and configuration alongside compatible switches and storage.

Replaces WiFi 5 in high-density venues

Businesses moving from WiFi 5 access points gain four times the client capacity with less congestion. The upgrade is worth it when smartphone, IoT and notebook density exceeds what older 802.11ac hardware can serve reliably. Mesh capabilities extend seamless roaming across larger footprints without controller hardware. Buyers who need outdoor-rated enclosures or multi-gig uplinks beyond 2.5Gbps should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.5GbE PoE+ port cap the Wi-Fi 6 throughput at in practice?

The 2.5Gbps PoE+ uplink limits total wireless throughput to 2.5Gbps even though the dual-band radio can reach 3Gbps combined.

What mounting hardware is required for the indoor WAX615?

The unit includes ceiling and wall brackets; you need a standard drop-ceiling rail or drywall anchors plus a PoE+ switch or injector.

How is the WAX615 adopted in the Insight app, and what step do installers often miss?

Power the AP via PoE+, open the Insight app, scan the QR code on the label, then assign the correct VLAN to each of the eight SSIDs before saving.
