1:1 Migration from 802.11n to 11ac
Many enterprises face a dilemma when migrating from 802.11n to 11ac — while 5GHz offers higher transfer speeds, its shorter wavelength can hampers coverage. The WAC6500 series’ smart antenna allows users to migrate from wireless n to wireless ac without reconfiguring or adding additional APs to a network. The smart antenna dynamically adjusts wireless patterns, doubling performance with stronger signals to increase sensitivity and improve interference resistance.
Perfect choice of high-density environments
Designed with smart antenna, the WAC6500 series provides dynamic signal patterns to deliver best service to every client. In addition, advanced Wi-Fi features such as load balancing and smart-client steering ensure a smooth, consistent, and uninterrupted wireless access experience for all users.
Easy to deploy in multiple-AP environments
WAC6500 series is extraordinarily easy to install with the Zyxel APFlex™ feature. While deploying large groups of WAC6500 series with AP controllers in place, APFlex™ enables streamline and hassle-free installation, simple switching between Managed/Standalone AP modes and automatic integration of APs into the network environment. When operating, DCS (dynamic channel selection) balances the AP channels to reduce signal interference.
Flexible installation with tool-less bracket
The WAC6500 series’ universal bracket allows for flexible ceiling track mounting in three simple steps, eliminating the need for special tools. The bracket width adjusts to fit a variety of ceiling track configurations, adapting to any building’s structure. Individual end user can easily install the access point, saving valuable time that could be better spent on deploying additional APs.
