Wi-Fi 6 certification guarantees high-speed and advanced features like orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, and the next generation of Wi-Fi security, WPA3.
Support for 75 clients
Instant On AP27 can support up to 75 connected devices at once, and with enhancements from Wi-Fi 6 features like Target Wake Time and OFDMA, more devices can report into the same access point without risk of overload.
Rugged IP67-rated
Ready for harsh outdoor environments, from the hottest summers to the coldest winters. IP67 rating means the Instant On AP27 is rain-ready, dust-resilient, and ready for temperatures of -40°C to 65°C (-40°F to 149°F). AP27 is easy to install on any flat surface with the wall-mounting kit and powers up quickly via Power over Ethernet.
